Fair enough hahaha

I had a serious problem with colorscheme tinkering so I decided to use no syntax highlighting and I've never been happier.

I recently adopted Gnucash as an alternative to my old faithful expenses spreadsheet using Gnumeric and I have to say, after grasping the basics it improved my bookkeeping drastically. One very useful and brutally simple feature that I like is the ability to attach files to a transaction. In Brazil we use boletos[1] extensively and Gnucash made my life a heck of a lot easier to keep track of them.

Wouldn't this do? https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v4/C/gnucash-help/trans-assoc.h...

The more articles I read about the effects of social media in mental health the more I agree with an approach like this.

I think social media can be very dangerous specially because of its pushy, 'not looking harmful at first' and ostracizing nature towards those who aren't on X or Y which is the perfect bait for younger demographics. Just like when you're trying to stop drinking but it's morally acceptable for friends to insist you go drinking.

I'm a late night doom scroller myself and I need to become more disciplined..

As someone who wants to be a software developer one day, I took notes from the 'How to hire actually good engineers' post. Honestly, I lack code and I'm gonna fix that.

Once again, thank you! This aligns very well with what a few friends pointed out about this matter.

Thank you peckrob, this was very insightful.

Let me be a SOB for a second and ask for your opinion. I'm interested in freelancing with WordPress, mostly small company websites, would you still recommend it for someone who's just getting in the market?

TIA

Something like this https://tibleiz.net/code-browser/ maybe?

I want to hear more from you.

My sense of wonder is back! Please make this permanent.

I've been using Blender for as long as I've been using computers. I learned 3D modelling including level design, learned programming by making small games with BGE, used it to make a client's business card stand out with 3D effects, created 2D and 3D YouTube intros for my brother and a LOT more. I even managed to make some real money in difficult times to support my family, thanks to Blender.

Blender is probably the most important part of my life software-wise, and it bugs me that I never managed to use it (even older versions) at its fullest.

Congratulations to all the people behind this behemoth of a software who carried and carries many of the best artists out there. If I ever get anywhere in life with game development / 3d art I'll wholehartedly credit Blender.

Perhaps demon culture is heavily influenced by electrical engineering.

If I buy someone else's soul, could that be resold?

I just finished the 3rd day at my new job, and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. I want to thank you for making this game and posting it, I don't know what exactly but it has what I need at this moment.

I don't want to be disrespectful to OP but my PC is too old to run their game.

What a great coincidence, I watched it yesterday because of that Plan9 post.

I couldn't recommend it more.

I might be missing the point here, but I find it quite annoying that I was already logged into my Google account and trying to sign in in a website[1] using the 'Sign in with Google' did not work. I don't take my cellphone to work and that little Google auth system kept asking for in-phone confirmation since "I was trying to log in from an unknown device" but singing in Gmail in that exact same device worked just fine.

I don't remember why I decided to learn Vim, but the first time I saw it was in a very intelligent programming channel, Goran Milovanovic's python tutorials on YouTube

Good catch.

That sounds obvious but goes completely unnoticed, and it's very smart. A good part of what keeps me motivated to work on something is believing in the solution. This line gets a little blurry when it comes to games, but the only way for me to mitigate that is to make games I would play.

Consider the culinary section...

To my house, I will paint you like a French girl.

I can relate to that.

Sometimes I'm dealing with a problem that is really complicated and I tried to solve several times without success... I can feel the resistance in bed, when having breakfast and before I sit on my chair and fire up vim to go to that very block of code. It also tears me apart to go to work and leave it unsolved.

Resistance drags us down really, really bad. It makes it difficult to go back to working on a problem.

Not a professional here, but boy this is the point where amateurs quit and that's exactly where I feel the urge to quit too... but somehow I just don't. That's where it clicks "I have to find a solution to this somehow!". Maybe it's a bit of ego but I don't drop something I started[1] and when I finally find the solution, it's almost orgasmic. I feel like I'm the biggest man in the world, and that's my drive to keep moving[2].

[1] Unless it becomes crucially destructive and is clearly harming people, but I guess you get what I mean.

[2] I don't want to make it over minimalist because there's a lot more to it, but I'm referring to this specific motivation building block (I believe motivation isn't just an isolated urge to accomplish thing, but rather several `blocks` that together compose this `will` to do things).

Out of curiosity, at the risk of sounding off-topic and irrelevant... but are you an Emacs user?

Not a full fledged and philosophical comment here, just my honestest congratulations fellow Paulista, you serve as the perfect inspiration to me!

I should try adopting find and grep, but on Windows I'm currently using this and I'm very happy with it: https://www.voidtools.com/downloads/

It will be fun to say "we're having a new issue next month"... Yeah, I went for the easiest...
