   Borges blew my brain first when I was 18. To this day I re-read at least "The Library of Babel" once a year. Still in awe of how his mind worked.

   As far as side projects go: I was a 100%-RSS-news guy a few years ago, but found myself more and more looking at twitter for a certain kind of news content (mostly rants about how bad agile has become). But I kind of hated needing to use tw

   I am really, really, REALLY surprised so few people talk about Quasar https://quasar.dev/ Quoting from their website [1]: "Quasar [...] is an MIT licensed open-source Vue.js based framework, which allows you as a web d

   If there is no sunlight Im afraid no plant will last very long :/ I work from our basement and have more or less the same problem. What helped me the most was some good lighting conditions. I use a bunch of big LED panels from Ikea [1]

   Everybody who gets forced to work in an open office plan should get a pair of really good and comfortable ANC cans from the company by default.

   I like the idea! Coming from the IT world where remote teams always have the challenge of getting together online to do fun stuff (not everybody loves video games) it definitely has potential. Maybe provide some more out-of-the-box ready qu

   From what I read between the lines you work as an external contractor bidding on one-off client projects/tasks. In that case estimation is even harder, because you often dont know the quality of the code base that you have to work on.

    Great basic introduction imo. When I was starting out I was blindly copy pasting CLI commands from tutorial pages without any idea what was happening. Even if you limit yourself to "Frontend Development" only it is super useful to

    The main PIM challenge for me, besides naming things, is discoverability. If I have a system where I put stuff in, how do I find it again? After a few years I certainly have forgotten that I had a link to this one article a friend showed me

    Loved it, still hate spiders, but might accept them as overlords at some point.

    Interesting! I only consume HN via RSS feed. That means: chronological order + I have no idea what is #1 at any given time. Always wonder why some posts get tons of comments and others almost none at all. Micro echo chamber? Does the time o

    They seem to be pretty stable when it comes to their APIs. Over 5 years ago I built a small service to provide your personal Twitter main timeline as an RSS feed. Never touched it since. Still works. https://twissr.herokuapp.com

    I always thought the roadmap.sh Backend Developer Roadmap gives a nice overview of technologies and concepts. Even though it misses some things imo (identity management comes to mind) https://roadmap.sh/backend
