I'm pretty happy with the way CS6 works with PlayOnLinux(Ubuntu 16.04, Wine 1.7.24-CS-0.9.1-DXHR). It's not perfect, but I have no problem getting the work done (mostly design). I wouldn't use it for drawing/painting tho

Theoretically google does penalize duplicate content, but I've heard that you can ask medium support to set a canonical link pointing from the medium article to your site, I think that might even benefit your SEO. Although I've ne

A few counterpoints on benefits of using Medium over of your own blog: - Submitting your articles to publications is a very easy way to get a lot of free exposure. For example, my most successful post [1] generated 36k views and 1.5k medium

Sounds like you don't like twitter's limitations and want to express your thoughts in a longer format. I think that has been invented before(you may have heard of blogging, news websites, articles, books). > but the reach of th

That makes sense. The problem is that at the end of the day the decision will have to be made either by algorithms or by people. Algorithms are less nuanced, hard to write, and will often fail, people are expensive and biased. With the amou

I have a feeling that the internet will get outraged about this for one reason or another, but just from looking at this, it actually seems like a sensible policy designed to keep YouTube out of trouble. Nothing extreme or unfair, just avo

I've just finished reading "Hooked:How to build habit-forming products", a very good book that explores this subject in a lot of detail. If you're interested in learning more about this stuff, I highly recommend reading

There's nothing wrong with making people rich in exchange for money they give you. That's how jobs work. Making someone else rich is something to be proud of and aspire to. Not as cool as making yourself rich, but still good.

You don't really need platforms to help you learn how to code. Find some good video courses and create practical projects by following the instructions, that's the best way to learn, especially if you're into webdev. I sugges

I hope you will find Nulis useful! =) To be fair, I should mention that gingko's author is also working on a desktop version [1]. He's rewriting it from scratch, and it looks like it will be very cool once he does. [1] https:&#x2

Thanks! Nulis is open source, allows you to edit all the cards simultaneously(instead of double-click/esc to jump between editing modes), has writing stats(to develop daily writing habit), and allows you to save trees offline. I'm

For screenwriting I highly recommend checking out emacs fountain mode [1] (plus imenu-list and Olivetti minor modes). In combination with org-mode it is the most powerful writing/outlining tool you can imagine. Also, if you haven'

Thank you for your reply! Helix works on mobile quite well already, and soon I am planning to make it progressive, that is you can add it to the home screen, it'll work offline, sync with the server when it can, and be essentially indi

I'm not an expert, but the best one I could find is this: https://machinelearningmastery.com/deep-learning-with-python... Really neat intro, simple examples, using high level libraries (Keras and TF).
