       Show HN: Pomoglorbo, a TUI Pomodoro timer for your terminal
        
       This started out as a fork of pydoro and turned into a playground
       for dataclasses and strict mypy type checking. Some of the advanced
       features are  - it writes the current status into
       .local/state/pomoglorbo for i3status/xbar - it is very
       configurable, including cmd hooks to run after a Pomodoro/break
       finishes or starts  The layout is compact, and it runs well over
       SSH/Mosh/Tmux.

           | Good one! That's pretty much how I started and then ended up
           | with Pomoglorbo instead. I have wanted the timer to integrate
           | with timewarrior, and automatically time what I am working
           | and also keep track of my breaks. Another issue is that when
           | your computer sleeps, you'd want to keep counting seconds in
           | the background, so time.sleep(1) will lose accuracy very
           | quickly.

           | 1. I tried to install Pomoglorbo, fails due to python

           | 2. Scrolling down I find muccadoro, fails due to dependency

           | 3. 10 minutes in im feeling the impact and inefficient
           | 
           | 4. Should've just kept moving
