They own Pedigree (dog food) and Whiskas (cat food). So there is a connection to pet care there. On a side note, they also sponsor projects to help with and care for feral cats and stray dogs in Mexico. There might be some decent people wit

Joplin has no mobile writer. Only reading. Obsidian has that. And is more extendable. That is why I switched. For me, writing a note on multiple devices is the key feature.

It really is a question of preference. Kids are awesome, but that is not to say that one can’t be happy without them. I firmly believe that no one should have kids if they don’t really want to. There are enough of us. We will need to reprod

But that somebody would need to somehow connect that image with my name. I mean one thing is taking nude selfies and then posting them on my IG or whatever and the other is random stranger snapping pictures from far away. How would the latt

As a father of two, I would like to add that even with kids, your 30s can be a golden-age. They were for me at least. The stress and FOMO of my twenties was gone. A certain Danny Glover quote regularly comes to mind. Things and thoughts in

Absolutely agree. Just watched the first five minutes of that clip you linked and I 100% agree. Jonathan is an inspiring person that had a huge impact on my personal trajectory. If you want to be a top notch programmer/artist/craf

I managed to self teach myself web dev like that. Get up at 4:30 to study. Around 7 make kids ready for the day. Go to work and in bed at 22:00. Rinse and repeat until I was able to break out of mind numbing drone work into my first web dev
