This is what ever worked for me. I block social media to one time slot per day, and it is of 30 minutes. I never use social media outside of this slot. I enforce it even when I have nothing else to do- like waiting in a queue or waiting for

This was in my 9th or 10th grade syllabus. What a great poem. But I don't agree with all the letters in it, but I dig the spirit. For example, if you risk everything you have, how does that affect your family if it is material possessi

Wow, thanks for your recommendation. Only English poetry I read are Tennyson and Keats. And some Whitman. I also read poetry in Bengali, Sanskrit (Kalidasa only), and Urdu. I am pretty much limited to the classics except for Bengali. I need

Your past never leaves you. You just learn to live with it. You change somehow, so that changed version can live with whatever it was. After a painful chapter in my life, I fully changed my social circle. I kept in touch with a very few p

I also think the same. Many things are possible with the AI technology that we have today, right at this very moment that can be used to do things are the most wild things. Some of it would be illegal, some of it would be unethical. Good

Copyright laws are a favorite instrument of preventing stuff that you do not want to happen. In one country, making reaction videos or analysing news with clips from proprietary news channel is very common. Then came a guy, who used news cl

> but is underage porn still illegal when it's not technically depicting a real person? If we look at existing laws, it should be. Depicting an underage person even when the actor is an adult is illegal, I think, in every country.

Seven Sketches in Compositionality is easily the best book to get started on Category Theory. Learning something becomes highly fun and enjoyable when the authors/lecturers are deliberately trying to make it so. Most books on anythin

This makes sense. When I used to write Js, I used VS Code anyway, because its support for Js is really good. I still used vim for everything else. I will keep both. Thanks.

This sounds really interesting. So, even if someone chooses to migrate to Emacs, they can still be in-practice with vim. So, when they need to work on someone else's computer or SSH into a server, they will still not lose any efficienc

I have been a vim user all my programming life which is not very long. Can you please provide me straight-to-the-point, opinionated, no words twisted, maybe personal reasoning why I should use Emacs over vim? This is a very honest question.

> This book is in a genre I call “once you’ve read the title you’ve read the book” Hard disagree. Have you actually read it? It offers much more than the title.

In this regard, you might want to read "So Good They Can't Ignore You" by Cal Newport. I know. The title is cheesy and melodramatic. But this book was really helpful in shaping some of my worldview. This book goes vehementl
