Would you recommend more resources to learn about his work?
I think this is a misleading title. Journalism as a profession shot up the last couple of years due to internet and media so the count should be normalized. What ratio of journalists are persecuted compared to total number of journalists out there?
TLDR: There are over 50 career roadmaps right now. It's built with golang and nextjs. You can see the github repository over here

https://reallyconfused.co/Full Story: Five years ago as I was learning to code, I was frustrated about not knowing the whole journey. Recently I decided to revisit this problem and to solve this, I decided to build a web app where you can create and share learning roadmaps, and beginners can explore roadmaps based on careers and programming languages. The aim of this project is not to give a single roadmap to anyone as a prescription that promises a career if you do X, Y and Z, but merely an exploratory platform that can be used as a source of inspiration if you get stuck because no tech career path is the same. I managed to get over 50 learning roadmaps on a variety of careers and programming languages. It's built with golang and nextjs and use postgres as a database. I'd love your feedback and your criticism!
Best Regards.

Can someone ELI5 how bad this variant is?
How do you find the temporal bone? Would you have a reference video so that I could try it out? Temporal bone massage returned some vague results.
if the universe is expanding faster than the speed of light why can't we harness that power and travel that fast?
Thanks for sharing. That's the goal, anyway. :)

By deep tech, I mean getting to solve complex challenges through technology. It could be solving problems using machine learning, or a hardware product that's genuinely useful. I believe we're going to see a rise in hardware technology soon. After being in the phase of building a product to get upvotes on ProductHunt, I was trying to capture the essence of being an inventor by following a prescribed recipe, which wasn't satisfying. I ended up moving to a more business role and it's much better this way but we're barely building anything.
I'd like to play a role of an inventor and a builder of crazy technologies. Imagine https://www.noya.co/ or https://frame.work/. My only concern is that not being from a research background or a first world country could hinder my chance of doing that. Hope that made sense.
I relate with your sentiment. I'm from a product background, not a research one. What do you think is the best way to eventually transition into deep tech companies over the next five years?
How do you think NFTs will die out?
This is really cool, why did this die out?

For examples NFTs are in style right now, I do not know how it's going to fare in the future, but has there been similar trends like this in history?
Even though the article captures a good amount of truth about the lifestyle, the dinner pricing might need a bit of context. The top 5% of the restaurants might cost more than a hundred bucks for two people but that should be expected from the high-end four star and five star restaurants. I'm an Indian engineer who earns in USD, and even if I'm picky, my per meal is always between $3 - $5. Even if I'm going for keto or specialised meals, it never goes beyond $10.
I'm trying to do the same. All my notes are backed up to a private repository, would be pretty kick-ass to get it synced with my iphone. Let me know if you find it out!

Since COVID drove most of the communities and events online, I was curious to know what worked for you and what didn't when it comes to networking and how that lead to a job.As a self-taught dev, where do you think is the best place to find like-minded folks in the industry, build a genuine connection and learn from them? What strategies worked for you personally other than LinkedIn? I would...
Time to roll back this innovation and release the new iphone with 2x volume so that it'd float.
From my observations, there are communities which has strict moderation policies, but sometimes they do allow posts if the incentives are right. That's why I mention writing an essay instead of posting a link. I feel like if it's a well known pain-point and the community is aware about it, and you outline why your motivation for solving it, it will resonate. Instead of promotion, you're posting your story.
Again, this strategy could fail too, but I've always noticed if you take one topic, there are multiple subreddits that address it, so you'll have luck in at least one of them. What market is your product targeting?

That's super fascinating. Does praying enrich your life? Do you think it's something you could replace with meditation?
You can always choose to not use a phone or the internet? The difference is that life becomes hard when you wanna opt out of a mainstream technology that we fully do not understand.
This is the only correct answer.
That's what I'm intending on doing next! I'm trying to find distribution channels to reach out first and to validate some ideas I have in mind. Would you like to hop on a quick call to brainstorm stuff?
They met through a reddit post or some other way?
Hey! This looks great. I was curious to know how this would be different from the same share feature that Instagram has. You can share posts and related stuff there and additionally since all your friends are there I wanted to know what incentive you plan on giving people to switch platforms.
Thank you, appreciate the detailed answer.
