Are there API-based search providers that structure their results differently?

I can think of various high-Level activities such as analyzing systems we interact with on a day-to-day basis. However, I cannot come up with exercises that would improve my code itself.

For example, I use it add an explanation of what RSS is and some styling to the RSS feed of my personal website [1].

Apart from that, I often fall back to https://github.com/adamyordan/laplace when I need to share my screen. It works in the browser and has great image clarity. Sadly, the demo instance is down, so you need to host it yourself. Also, it can have trouble inside some enterprise network/firewall setups.

For your tasks, you can set priorities, a deadline, dependencies, and more. Using this information, Taskwarrior computes an urgency score so you can see your most urgent task using:

I still wish for a service that gives me access to all paywalled sites or a way to sending all websites I visit a little money in exchange for them not serving ads.

However, there wasn't a lot of room for ambition.

We had no code reviews, no design docs, no tests, nothing. We made the changes the way we thought they were right and would git pull them onto the production server.

After I struggled to get productive for the first four months, my manager went on a four-week Christmas vacation. In a moment of frustration, I seized the opportunity and rewrote the whole project from scratch. I don’t remember if my manager ever noticed, but that was the moment I finally got productive.

I‘ve heard that Firefox will only run signed extensions. Would you trust this process?

Most of them don’t care for the topics I write about. However, they usually get a little excited, as if they found a real-life Easter egg.

When I asked support why I have to pay for my depot (even though its free if I have a checking account) they said they signed me up under two separate customer IDs, but they cannot simply consolidate them. I have to open a new depot and transfer my stocks.

I don't write much. The most interesting article is probably one where I reflect on my AWS internship. :)

The different providers can differ in what payments they accept and how they send you the ticket. Some also include extra benefits.

According to their website, Mainz, for example seems to sell them in their app and accepts credit card, as well as PayPal payments.

On the other hand, I am really happy with https://phind.com and find myself using it if I struggle to understand some concept.

For me, the power of the chat based apps is that I can explain my mental model and they can directly build upon that.

I've never read papers out of uni assignments. Do you have suggestions for great papers "everyone" should read or how to find interesting papers to read?

So, ideally I'd like to have a one or two click tracking solution which rescue time did not really provide.

It's a bummer that no time tracking App really seems to focus on cross platform support. I've been looking for a time tracking app myself and couldn't find one to support my situation.

I have: - A Linux desktop - A MacBook - An Android Phone - Offline activities I want to track

One of my key worries is that if I sell my side project to real users, I have to patch it, I have to monitor it, I have to answer support messages and fix it if it breaks for whatever reason.

You pay 145€ for the Home or 259€ for the Pro Edition and they treat it like it's freeware.

I want my computer to support me in achieving what I want to do, but Windows just keeps grabbing attention with intrusive ads and never-ending notifications.

I've always imagined that my CV would stand out and that it would be easy to send out a few applications and get an internship abroad. Well... turns out it's not. At least for me.

Posts like these remind me, that we should speak about our rejections more open and regularly. They are also part of the process, a source of motivation, and usually an opportunity to learn.
