A bit of a nit: the background image features Machu Picchu, but searching for Peru yields no results.

I'm a bit rusty now, but I used to make a lot of pasta and enjoyed teaching friends the wonders of making pasta. There's a learning curve as many other commenters mentioned, but on…

I feel like every company I've worked at talks about "exploring" a 401k match every year, but never makes it happen. After a merger or acquisition, they'll bring it up again but it…

I thought that this would look for unique words rather than just cycle through all words. You should have a default ignore word list that includes things like el, en, de, etc etc.

It's confusing that you had to scroll up to realize the article isn't by Martin Fowler.

To build an identity that's easier for your readers to remember and to start getting "credit" for SEO even if you're not actively optimizing keywords, etc. Why let substack reap al…

I have a hobby blog that doesn't have to do with coding, but I post on substack. I enjoy the features on substack, but I would advise that you set up a custom domain if you post to…

This provided an entertaining five minutes of entering silly company ideas to see what matches. Yeah, I wouldn't enter anything I'd remotely want to pursue.

You can eat them raw too. I used to break them up and put some (not the whole pack) on top of salad, kind of like croutons.

I wish the author gave examples of thins they’d omit from the “overstuffed” curriculum.

Haha, literally YMMV (your mileage may vary)!

The author has a point in regards to short trips (~2 weeks). However, I think if you travel and stay longer, the impact on your identity is far different. I've been traveling longe…

I know what you mean, but usually for us the problem is the opposite. The internet connection is fast, but the WiFi is horrible. I've learned to always carry an ethernet cable, but…

I've been living in Airbnbs in Latin America and Europe while working remotely. One of the major challenges is making sure the Airbnb has good wifi. A lot of hosts won't know what …

I thought this was going to be about polyphasic sleeping.

The title just walks into the joke.

I thought that the Products/Technologies categories would be the most useful, but it seems like there's only one blog per technology. Also, Python doesn't seem to be listed as a te…

Actually, I want a Sims-like game with a real language instead of Simlish. It would be a great way to learn a language when immersion isn't possible.

I feel like I'm a slow thinker until I'm able to cache answers derived from experience or from seeing a similar problem.

I'm sure that some restaurants could use a faster dishwasher.

I wouldn't really consider this a deep dive. Just a rehash of a lot of the advice you see in other articles. The post and comment is from the author of the "article."

I just started reading The Mythical Man-Month book. I've been long familiar with the concept, but didn't realize how many other great lessons the book has. Now, reading the article…

A social media platform that didn't rely on ads. Maybe take some ideas from Friendfeed or Google Reader.
