Local to a webpage, do you feel building wrapper over indexedDB instead of sqlite would be better idea?

I have been toying with the idea of a decade long learning journey, but I'm yet to decide what is that I want to learn. I want to see what difference does a decade long learning of a single skill make. I can already see how big difference it makes from my experience with my work in Software Engineering, but learning an entirely new skill would be a great and rewarding challenge I feel.
Re:Adobe to acquire Figma for $20B on Thursday September 15, 2022 @11:57AM (#32853987)
Time start an alternative startup because figma is soon gonna stagnate once it is acquired.
Re:Wekan: Open-source, trello-like kanban on Thursday April 16, 2020 @02:49AM (#22886833)
Github has a basic kanban board and since private repositories are free, it can be used as replacement to Trello.
Mechanic of the Simulation: The machines found that the simulation cannot be run continuously. So they let the humans body rest in relation to their body age. This comes from the idea that humans start at the start of stone age where there are less humans and others would be in some form of coma. As the story progresses in the simulation the humans are woken up into the dream. So according to this description the young ones are woken up earlier and older ones are woken up later.

This is done in a farm. The oldest one is the last to die. This way whole farm can run 3 - 4 times before the people gain conscience. Farms die at rate which the machines can create and start new farms. When the earth is about to die, there will be only on farm left and no more resource to create more.

This simulation diary can be written over and over again by exploiting a very slightly illogical statement that doesn't seem so and keep on writing infinitely. I think this is like prime series from mathematics. I don't know how much this can grow or does it even have an end. I don't know if my analogy is correct. I'm pretty sure this a infinitely recursive story of thread of word where I can start at any point and say that this is a wrong statement and start again by building about a new story around it. Like if this story is a function applied on itself and we spit out more words and keep the story going with another bullshit term.

Is the way I wrote the story wrong?

Ask HN: I wrote a recursive story. Want to know if my thinking is correct.

Disclaimer this might be a bit too long so sorry if doesn't add any value to you.Yesterday I wrote a very short story which goes like this: We are in a recurring simulation. Each simulation is actually a speeding up to find the perfect computer. As we approach to solve the problem, the world resets and starts again to find the perfect computer. As we approach to solve the problem, the world...
