Software Design and Architecture Specialization: https://www.coursera.org/specializations/software-design-arc...
I learned so much in these courses that cover OOD, design patterns, and architecture in a real world and practical way. I found it one of the best taught courses I've taken.

Re:Ask HN: Password manager with best experience on Linux?

I'm also a big fan of Bitwarden. I use it on Linux, my wife uses it on macOS, and we both use it on iOS. It allows us to share passwords seamlessly across all platforms.
I also like the command-line app that I can integrate into dmenu and the fact that it allows self-hosting.

Personally, I wouldn't consider it Mozilla Corporation's moral obligation to resign over including an add-on by default, that can be disabled.

Yup, my 5th gen runs flawlessly with arch. Only thing that doesn't by default is the fingerprint reader.

I'm glad most a lot of these comments are saying DDG works for them; I still have a lot of issues with the search quality and switched to Startpage a while ago which uses anonymized google results.

I don't see anyone mentioning the ability to store about:config settings in a user.js file.
Unless you have some reason not to use it, it's much easier than changing about:config on each computer, you just copy over the user.js file.
Here's a hardened option (no affiliation): https://github.com/pyllyukko/user.js
And a relaxed version: https://github.com/pyllyukko/user.js/tree/relaxed
