Regarding this topic, I know many people (myself included at the moment) that do not want the burden of freelance, starting their own business, etc. For these people, there are other alternatives. For me, I have been working 4 days work wee

If you have Nix and want to test this without python versions, pip, whatnot you can use `nix run github:figsoda/nixpkgs/shaq#shaq -- --listen` or `nix shell github:figsoda/nixpkgs/shaq#shaq` and use `shaq` in your temp s

I switched to a 4 day work week (8h a day) with a 20% gross cut, which is about ~17% after tax, in February. I had some wrist pain/discomfort (especially on Thursdays and Fridays) which was distracting for me. Since then it completely

I am only starting with it myself, so I mostly see the benefits without actually being aware of the drawbacks, but you might consider Elixir and its most used web framework Phoenix. It has some inspirations of Ruby/Ruby on Rails. José

I agree with the "copying and pasting with poorly-behaved sites", but that's it. And that is mainly the fault of those poorly-behaved sites and/or applications. I use Bitwarden in Firefox and Android and I experience ver

I am currently reading Unix - A history and a Memoir by Brian Kernigham. I disliked the first couple of pages (describing Bell Labs), but after that it has been gold. The people behind Unix were great, intelligent and most important funny

I advocate for remote pair programming where the less experienced person is in control of the keyboard and sharing the screen and the more experienced person just explains what he has to do and watches him learn and apply that knowledge. My

Exactly what alexbanks said, at least in my experience my team does a lot of team work that you mentioned that requires us to be in sync. For that we use remote conference tools to discuss and sometimes pair program and it has been working

Are you self-employed? If not, how did you negotiate 3:7 work week? Any tips to someone who values work-life balance and want to try negotiate 4:7 instead of the current 5:7 standard?

I worked this schedule while I was studying, 5-hours a day 5 days a week (part-time) and to be honest my productivity was around 85/90% compared to working 8-hours a day 5 days a week. I would have the stand-up as 10/15 minutes af

Hi nikivi, Just a suggestion, but if you love creating your own tools and optimizing your workflow you might consider switching to linux with some tiling window manager and other improvements. To be honest this might be one of the reasons n

Amazing concept. I am a very visual learner and I find this fascinating. In school I often got disengaged by history because of the way it was taught, unfortunately. Projects like this can improve learning a lot! The Average Life Expectancy
