Are there any recommendations for books thats are less algorithms and more how to structure software, how to structure databases and data and how to build reliable apps/websites and reduce spaghetti code?
You can also use Mollie payments, they just transfer the amount to your account. Similar to stripe.

What you are forgetting is that advertising is moving away because readers are. People came for the value they are no longer getting. Advertisers are just the result of that
Also depends a bit on the thing you work on. But we have used local arts funding for this. It helped us be a little bit more formal, while having a small amount of money for the people helping out. It does comes with its paperwork/obligations though

A lot of the stack overflow questions are moved to domain specific slack/discord/spectrumapp communities. Effectively making them harder to search, more gated and incrowdy than regular websites
So many places seem to require a github profile in their form.

For one it runs on about every mac you can buy, you dint really need a big expensive computer to use it. Unlike photoshop or illustrator. This together with a simple UI, features especially for interface design (so you dont have to fight to get the program out of print color mode)

Re:Ask HN: The Rise of the Newsletter? on Thursday February 21, 2019 @03:14AM (#19215333)
I think newsletters are great. They are a media platform thats is distributed and open to everyone. Its personal and direct, and the users itself has a lot of control in how they digest the information. However Im sad to see how much of this media will end up in closed of spaces. (Same as the rise of slack/discord communities) its sad to see things are not open and public. Which makes access much more only to the few in the know.

Being annoyed at it for being slow and always needing more packages, installs and cryptic options that need to be changed in config files.

btw: is there a alternative that “just works”?

What is the best way for designers to help with opensource projects? These projects are often very developer oriented.

In the Netherlands there is a extra cost for certain products because of the pollution / disassembly costs. Its called the disposal fee, https://www.milieucentraal.nl/energie-besparen/apparaten-en-...
I imagine because of the european market on scooters. In The Netherlands for example electric skateboards are illegal out of the box and require a licence plate (because its a fully motorized vehicle) scooters and vespas are already ingrained in culture and have a market.
