Once you don't have to worry about not having to pay rent, not having to pay electricity etc then your appetite for risks grows. To get to that point you either need to start from a rich household (parents) or get to a certain age, have some money to support you (from previous work) and then go into entrepreneurial experiments. This is a big reason why you see older entrepreneurs embarking into that journey.

In Greece Athens wasn’t always the capital. For a brief moment of time the capital was in the city of Nafplion.

I used Katex on my GatsbyJS blog and it worked nicely. Felt like doing latex but less confusing.

The additional problem I see with Slack is that their calls/video chat option is really inadequate and almost everyone is opting for Zoom. Zoom + Slack is a very steep price point for a lot of companies, especially in an era of cost saving and insecurity about the future.

My company opted to move to MS Teams because the experience is better as it integrates calls + chats and we were already using office365 for emails and documents anyway, so it was "free". As someone said already, it's hard to compete with free.

I can't see Slack getting out of this in one piece. I see Amazon being the obvious choice here.

I'm not sure about finding a coach, but having a person that you respect to talk about your problem, issues or frustration with work is really important.

Whenever I've talked about something that bothered me with a very few people I respect, and look up to, I made better choices. I really recommend to everyone to find this person.

It sounds like it would be a big help if github offered unlimited read-only/bot accounts. Not sure how technically feasible is that but it doesn't sound impossible.

How is music and gigs a vice?

We've been using Gitlab with my team for the past year or so. Moved from corporate Github to it. It's really nice and almost flawless so far. When i tried to install it, at some point, to a VPS of mine i had several issues with ruby packages etc. I might give it another go, it seems like the latest versions have been improved significantly.

This is really amazing and unique work. In a world of bland maps/websites this is a breath of fresh air.

That's what i thought in the beginning of the crisis but now i'm reconsidering. (I'm Greek)

I totally sympathise with the man, and i believe that this is an extremely well written article. At the same time though i want to mention that plenty of times when i get on a taxi i'm super tired, maybe distressed and really in no mood to talk to anyone. Glaring outside of the window saying nothing is my favourite thing to do, but many people might prefer watching pictures on Instagram from their hometowns and smile. As someone else said "C'est la vie"
