might be a swagger/openapi issue. golang for example does generated doc quite well imo. i wish other languages had the same.

not buggy but very unfriendly imo. i don't have an account but i have bookmarked a few. not sure if being logged in makes any difference but my pattern is: click on interesting post, scroll down the comments section, scroll all the way back up so i can click on the "+" sign to get more comments, scroll down to where i left, read some more, go back to the "+" sign, etc...

does not make any sense!

i mean, i put up with it because i don't have an account and well they can decide not to show unregistered people anyone's feed.

excellent idea! would love to see this applied to other languages and technologies! have to wait till i get home to claim a spot.

this trick works. my twist on it is to watch people play old video games on youtube.

however, it doesn't work when i need a clear mind, especially when i am exhausted. it is frustrating that no amount of movies, songs, video games will help clear your mind -- at least not mine -- which in turn makes you stay awake...

i used to know how meditate in college, but i have somehow lost that ability it seems (yes, one can lose it lol)
