That's called bike shedding! People tend to avoid complex stuff as it's much easier to discuss the simple stuff

Thank you that is such a useful change! I wondered about symmetry but had no idea how to break it.

It's the rugby world cup at the moment, and there is a fantasy game for it. Someone started posting the best possible team after each round and I thought "how could I automate this…

VS code (developer interface) has this feature where you activate a text input with a hotkey. It is used to trigger specific actions. You can type text and it will give you the act…

Because that's the reality of what our average life could look like if would have a sustainable life.

That's why remote work is so liberating. You don't have to stay at your desk but you can move your body and free your mind as much as you like. When I get back to the office I feel…

This article makes some assumptions that could easily change the result. By the way, if you have a batch size of 1 you're back to the initial hypothesis which is obviously not how …

Initially I thought I would be able to do it with webRTC but it turns out you still need some kind of specific server to connect clients. Instead I cheated a little bit and used a …

Nice article. I built my own online version of a turn based board game because none exists at the moment. I just want to play with my family so I didn't bother coding a server at a…

It sounds like good advice. Heck I don't wanna automate my life, especially not up that point. Imagine if the people the author contacted knew why, I wouldn't be too happy about it…

It depends on your personality but working from home allows us to be more connected with our mind and body (or connect them more). I'm not a morning person but I try to find the ti…

Maintaining git history is a waste of time. Work with PRs and let the PR own the context of the changes. Simple and easy for everyone. You can also link much more information than …

Yeah it's a good one. You need to feel comfortable with the time you have though. It's really great to fully be in the moment.

Fair point. I believe I manage to save enough time of "doing nothing" in my daily life (although it might feel uncomfortable sometimes as others pointed out in the thread) that I d…

That's awesome and you don't have to take it to that extreme. Right before covid I took a 3 months break after my last contract as independent consultant. Traveled in South America…

Going on vacation doesn't mean doing nothing. Like you I don't understand how/why people do this. I think it's about doing something different. Travel, visit, explore, camp, hike, …
