A side project is much different than a work project. You got your eight hours of work and got to go home and do whatever you pleased. In this case, it was to write more code. Having to corral your brain into the singular focus of an employ

I feel the highest good I get out of playing with alternatives is that I hit a higher rate of "hits" on picking up on things previously invisible to me. Playing with a different editor gives me ideas for different workflows and sh

Morgan Housel for financial advice. Just Google the name and follow his Twitter feed if you have an account there. I have learned a ton through playing poker. The game has a lot of carry-over into real life. Luck vs Skill. Variance. Take a

Any change in the way I work is going to screw me up if it's not incrementally added. You don't just add a 2nd monitor, you significantly change your workflow. Maybe you add the 2nd monitor and don't use it at first. Then as

More ideas. Organ meat is relatively cheap because people don't like it. But loaded with nutrients. Another good one is sardines. You are getting the whole fish and bones and people don't like sardines either. Some keto diets are

I like it! Thanks for sharing. The best thing is that you have been using it for 1.5 years. The hardest part is making something stick. Even just entering stuff into a spreadsheet.

The answer for this will be different for everyone. None of the answers will be sure to fix your problems. Dealing with your finances (or anything else you deal with more than once) is a process. Figure out what your process needs to be and

Thanks, this was my point. I'm skeptical that this study is any better than whatever studies may have got us here in the first place. 4 day work weeks seem as arbitrary as as what we have now. If happiness and well-being is productive,

How does the science on this compare to the science which got us the 40 hour work week? There seems to be a lot of anecdotes in the article. I'm not sure I could gauge my productivity well from one day to the next. There's too man

I think you have to fight pretty hard to justify using Docker. If you don't know why you would need it or how you would use it, then it's possible that you aren't ready for it yet. Keep in mind that development Docker and pro

This is what I was going to post before zoobab beat me to it. I'm not a guru with Docker, but this is what I would do. Make use of automation and just rebuild as much as needed. Shared volumes are good for development though.

This is a great application and I feel it deserves more eyeballs. Early in the development process is the time to make suggestions which may influence the direction of the project. I have always thought it would be great to read articles in

Understanding is more important than recall. The brain does a great job at making connections and dumping what's not important. The important stuff gets absorbed like muscle memory. Even if it's not at the tip of the tongue, it&#x

I see Docker for production and Docker for development as two different worlds. I think containers can work well for everyone in development. Not everyone needs to use it in production. If you are using Docker Compose for production, then y
