Why does the colour matter? Indians are varied in colour. I took the extra information to be a point of reference with regards to the reward of $10,080: that is a hefty sum for local IT workers in that country. Good on that person.

There will be community-driven pattern sharing. If a pattern gets 3 'plus' votes, it goes to a mod/admin who approves it for distribution to everyone. I don't mind ads though. Static ads after the first paragraph, with a

I'm wondering the same. Of you look at the books being listed in this thread, though, it's apparent there is little fiction or other material to truly savour: everything is skim-friendly. You could probably get through one of thes

An opinionated framework allows you to just get on with things! Like with programming. Finally deciding on a JS stack is one of the best feelings you'll have. The terror of even dishing out cursory glances toward the next shiny thing..

Fasting != intermittent fasting. You're not abstaining for weeks. A meal can take take 24 hours or longer to digest (especially when it's a 'feast'). It's not unusual for people to gain weight during Ramadan (they d

Why is storage an issue? With databases, for example, you store data upstream (on the host) and keep the dockerised app/thing mostly stateless, or at least capped with regards to storage. More details about your environment would be ap

It's not about sync vs async. It's about performance. People who take up pomodoro-type work tracking are surprised at how hard it is sometimes to get 25 minutes of work done. I know many people who perform their best when they are

Pick a spot where it's hard to be objectively productive, e.g. on the elliptical at the gym (hard to code), or train (uncomfortable if packed train, too much stimulus). Read there. When you are home, work. Personally, I don't trac

Oh, it has proper Virtual DOM now? I'll have to check it out. We've been using React for a Web app that needs to render and completely re-render (new columns etc.) lots of data - no hot updates - Vue was frustratingly slow (5-10 s

There are so many versions of jquery, and so many cdns, that most likely 70-90% of visitors don't have your specified jquery file cached. So yes, I believe it does matter. Jquery isn't something understood to be special to a brows

But doesn't meditation impede that little thought machine that runs in most programmers' heads? What has put me off meditation a little bit was reports of people no longer getting those algorithmic lightbulb moments at the gym or

They can analyse the frames in a timeline and skip ahead for changes, also analysing the audio file for transients. In fact, what's to stop them just watching on 4x speed?

Walk around. If you have a floor that lets you slide around while socked, do a few hallway sprint-slides to get your circulation going. Or my favourite: 60-second plank to start every break. Pomodoro six-pack plugin.

Then start your next pomodoro immediately. That's what I do. If you can do that and not get burned out, that's ideal, especially if you're in the zone. It's also better than increasing your pomodoro time IMO. Since I don
