Read.cv was the only professional networking website that I enjoyed using (and many others too). It was authentic, unpretentious, and without gimmicks. If anyone wants to make something similar, look at what they did for inspiration.

I live in a relatively residential neighborhood in NYC next to a school (outside of the congestion zone). The morning dropoffs and afternoon pickups are insane. It literally causes a gridlock for a couple hours in a part of the neighborhood

It works as a supplementary resource. I think this article[1] explains how to use Duolingo effectively. Anyone who believes they can learn a language only spending 5min a day on the app will get frustrated and fail. 1: https://r

I was cold called by one of these programs a while ago that was offered through Columbia University. They wanted around $13,000 for a 4-something week bootcamp. It's honestly disgusting that schools with billion dollar endowments feel

I agree. These are fun badges to maybe collect and help move you along a path. I don't think they should be followed in a sequence. For example, if you look at the game development one... why do I need to write a game design document b

I'm rooting for Zed. Used it for a few months at the start of this year, but came back to VSCode. I think Zed can potentially be a replacement for Sublime Text or equivalent, but it's far from one for VSCode. There's too much
