I bought a UX course several years ago. Each video was over an hour. The creator later redid all the videos, cutting them into shorter videos no longer than 9 minutes. He stated the reason was because this was one of the top requests from

"Devolving" implies some point in the past was better, but can you actually name a major historical period that was objectively better? Many people, especially historians, say the past was much worse: - https://ourworld

I've been trying to design a game that encourages people to be more social. There is a meme that even when people get together IRL, they end up staring at their own phones. So I've been wondering if a game can be designed to motiv

https://eloquentjavascript.net/ is a great book for learning how to program (in JavaScript). For your goals, you can probably just read chapters 1-3, 13-14, and 18.

There also seems to be a high concentration of Svelte jobs in Crypto. Perhaps there is no correlation; it's just because there are relatively more job openings in Crypto. I think even major companies are chasing fads like NFT's. O

Bike is usable forever (opening, editing, saving) without paying anything. You only need to pay if you want to change some of the settings or use applescripts.

Simplenote survived the Moby Dick workout. It lags a little after paste, and hangs momentarily on redo. It may work better with more structured data. (I used the markdown file in the webapp; didn't test native/mobile versions.) So

Ideally, the person you're giving advice to should come to the conclusion on their own. Your advice just nudges them in the right direction. Dale Carnegie gives a great example of how to do this[1]. Otherwise, the advice can come acros

I think documentation has to be tied to performance evaluation/salary, or at least not hinder your performance. I worked at a large, well-known software company. There were very few comments documenting the code. Aside from the auto-ge
