I have recently made changes to increase productivity and reduce friction to prepare for a child that will be born soon. We now have made tons of convenient upgrades, and are looking for more. Robot vacuum was for instance a worthy upgrade, even if I thought it was gimmicky initially.

Any ideas?

All black t-shirts, same pants, same sweaters, same socks, share socks with my wife.

I've similarly simplified my wardrobe. It's been great.

Most of my clothes are made from the same (or at least non-delicate) materials and all my daily wear aren't light clothes, so they all go in the same wash.

Did this next one with a few things, so for example, socks: Bought one type of daily-wear sock, made sure I liked it and then bulk bought them, so apart from a few special pairs (sports, decorative pattern, other colors), I don't need to care about pairing socks because they're all the same. Growing up with 3-pair packs of socks all in different paired-colors, and then socks with the same brand and same colors but different length, was a waste of time.
