A quick extension I made as I prefer this for reading. If you want to change it just DL this: https://github.com/steve10287/hacker-news-chrome-darkmode and install it via enabling dev mode. I know there are loads of alternatives but I was curious how the process works :)
Re:Project Possible: Ascending 14 peaks in 7 months on Friday August 19, 2022 @03:22AM (#32518344)
You’ve got to have insane amounts of self confidence to do what he’s done if that’s ego inject into my veins please.
Sounds wrong, but I wonder if joining a very small firm would be better? Pay wouldn’t be as good but the team you’re apart of could be what you’re looking for and could allow you to branch out or even a project management role. Also nothing wrong with just doing a typical job to clear your mind to figure out what you want.
I was like this and went on for years. I personally have always had problems with social anxiety. Go join a jujitsu club and go with him/her and build their confidence. Don’t restrict them as they’ll just double down and at the end of the day they are who they are and they are 18 and very unlikely to listen to their parents until they are way older.
I personally can’t focus in the mornings and have to clear up small jobs and I use 4 hours to focus. That’s probably down to the amount of emails / small jobs we deal with and my weak point is I always tend to prioritise the interesting work :)

Any chance you could add, that wide text is really hard to read body > *:not(pre) { max-width: 600px; margin-left: auto; display: block; margin-right: auto; } pre { max-width: 1200px; margin: 40px auto; background: #f6f6f6; padding: 16px; }

For some reason I find the website really hard to read, maybe try something like this? https://imgur.com/a/cNWZosc
