The blissful zen of a good side project

joshcollinsworth.com/blog/the-blissful-zen-of-a-good-side-project

It doesn’t matter what the project is; it matters that it is.

You don’t need to know where it’s going to lead. For that matter, it doesn’t have to lead anywhere. Nothing ever has to come of it. It’s ok if this project never even exists, as far as anyone else is concerned. Failure isn’t failure; it’s part of the process. It’s done when you’re done with it.

So whatever your side project is: I encourage you to pick it up, and let that part of you exist (again).

Ask HN: Programmers who don't use autocomplete/LSP, how do you do it?

news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42492508

Really intresting comments

This question reminds me of the first time I met a blind programmer. I asked him how he managed to code, and he replied with something that stayed with me: a good programmer should organize software in such a way that every piece of code has a clear and logical place. The organization should be so intuitive that anyone could build a mental model of the structure and navigate it easily, even without seeing it.

How to Live | Derek Sivers

sive.rs/h

Want to read and reflect somewhere on every chapter one day...
How to remember that i want it?

27 conflicting answers and one weird conclusion. Many books believe they know how you should live. But each book disagrees with the next. In “How to Live”, each chapter believes it knows how you should live. And each chapter disagrees with the next.

The Forth Methodology of Charles Moore by Jeff Fox 12/09/01

www.ultratechnology.com/method.htm

Don't leave openings in which you are going to insert code at some future date when the problem changes because inevitably the problem will change in a way that you didn't anticipate. Whatever the cost it's wasted. Don't anticipate, solve the problem you've got.

A guide to home row mods

precondition.github.io/home-row-mods

What are home row mods? What is a mod-tap? What settings do you need to use? What are the alternatives? And more in this article...

bouncepaw:

I don't think home row mods are a good idea.

I use home row mods for several month, the only downside is a need for a separate layer without mods for gaming

Jonas Hvid's notes

Author with cool visual style
Main page - https://johv.dk
He also uses Betula - https://links.johv.dk

For better or worse, I sometimes think. I have heard that I therefore am, but I’m unconvinced. Nevertheless, sometimes I write my thoughts down. Mostly just in my diary, but other times I publish them on the Web. This notebook contains those of my writings that are in a state somewhere between published and private.

Thinking out loud about 2nd-gen Email – Gabriel Sieben

gabrielsieben.tech/2024/05/17/thinking-out-loud-2nd-gen-email

Кажется уже не получится "улучшить" эл. почту. Нужна новая децентрализованная технология. Как сделать её простой для обычных пользователей? Как убедиться, что никто не сможет украсть или заблокировать твою личность? Идентификации просто по публичному адресу уже давно не достаточно.
Мессенджеры полностью заменили почту в плане общения, возможно их надо доработать?

Кстати, бетулу можно использовать как твиттер Х микроблог
