Your comment reminded me of the Optimistic Nihilism video by Kurzegesagt [1]. I highly recommend it, as they explain these concepts very well in a short 6min video. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBRqu0YOH14

It looks amazing! Great intro video. It probably doesn't make sense for Browserflow as a business, but I'd love to find a tool like this that exported a Scrapy spider, similar to the now unmaintained Portia.

If you enjoyed this post, I highly recommend reading Factfulness by Hans Rosling. He spent his later years trying to educate the public on the realities of the world. This book contains a series of tips on how to understand facts. His TED t

Definitely. It starts from first principles, linear algebra, and goes from there. It's an amazing course.

Congratulations on the launch! Quickly sharing a terminal session is very useful, not only for getting help but also in a classroom setting. I built a similar thing a few years ago named ShellShare [1]. It's much simpler than what you&

As an alternative, I use cifraclub.com.br for many years, and enjoy the interface and the overall quality of the chords (not affiliated with them). It's not in English, but you should be able to figure out where's the search bar a

The difference is not in the original but in the copies. A copy of a painting can be a work of art, but it is different. It did not sit at the artists' atelier, it hasn't traveled through different places to finally hang at the bu

dbt [1] is a tool that is deceptively simple, but kind of created a new job role: analytics engineer. It allow you to define tables using SQL plus Jinja2, so you can add loops and variables to create your SQL code. It might sound complicate

My wife and I rented an RV in Portugal a while ago for only a week -- it was one of the best travel experiences I had! I'm curious about how you found and prepared the RV, and how was living in it for a few months.

I enjoyed the book "You Can Draw in 30 Days" [1]. It gets into practice straight away, explaining the concepts as you need them. The daily exercises range from 20~40 minutes. [1] https://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Draw
