My guess why Aurelius is considered as the face of stoicism is due to the fact he was an emperor/powerful man. I doubt that the twisted way in which stoicism is viewed today would benefit from selling it as a philosophy of Zeno, who wa

Rust is hard to get started with, but once you reach optimal development speed, I can't see how you can go back to any other language. I have a production application that runs on Rust. It never crashed (yet), it's rock solid and

“Developers rewrite tools from dynamic language to statically compiled one - improves performance by 10x” Also, what’s up with 10x everywhere? Why not 9.5x or 11x?

The problem with Clean Code and other architecture porn methodologies, is that they work until they don't. You might follow clean code, until a new teammate comes and he/she has their own opinions about your code, your architectur

That's interesting. I, however, still spend between 20 and 30 minutes once a week to keep by beancount updated by manually entering the transactions, a habit I perform for the past 14 or so years. At the same time, I did automate 90% o

This is very frustrating. It becomes impossible to use the web in a privacy conscious way. I know that Firefox wasn't perfect, but it was the best we had, and I have been a loyal user, despite minor quirks and annoyances. And now this…

I found that most online communities around solopreneruship tend to split in two major groups: the wanna-be-preneurs who only ask a bunch of generic questions, and the people who promote their products/services. Your best bet is to con

Thanks, it makes sense, but I somehow missed this requirement. Anyway, my company is registered in the EU.

Thanks. From my research, .eu seems to used by official EU entities like ECB and other government/EU block/EU fans websites. My biggest concern is being penalized by Google, or being seen as an abusive domain like .lol/.xyz

The biggest implication of this is that you can no longer buy e-books in amazing and read them on a NON kindle device. On the other hand, I’m not sure if it was possible due to DRM. Anyway, things like this just piss me off. I kind of succu

This is amazing! But I wish it would use the ledger/beancount file format, as I don't have plans to migrate years of transactions.

Being able to express yourself with limited words, is a skill everyone should aspire to master. Having said that, the idea of social networks like twitter, is to spark a discussion, otherwise you would write a blog. Discussing ideas in twit

I find argument like “people love it” a bit weird. People obviously, based on various historic references, REALLY liked gladiator games in Ancient Rome. Would you propose we bring those back to the masses? I meant, shouldn’t we decide what’

So for users, it's just another alternative of slot machine / time-wasting activity. And for producers, yet another ticket to continue engaging in the capitalist system for the sake of capitalism itself.

I disagree with your first statement. The amount of times I saw an opinion/statement/fact posted on Twitter, which required me to write a response longer than 120 characters, can't be counted on both hands. At these moments,

This. It reminds me of the average “indie hacker” mentality: just move to Bali and live off $2-3k. The problem is that it just doesn’t work once you are past a certain age, and suddenly have “adult life”: parter, kids, aging parents. I’d lo
