You have a resume or website I could take a look at?

My suggestion is to look at networking events and see if you can get involved in startups. You will be talking to people on the team and it's a good way to make connections.

I'd also look into the Education sector (i.e. colleges, universities, school districts) It's how I managed to get my start in tech. https://www.higheredjobs.com

And don't feel bad about it taking a while to find a job. I graduated a few years ago and it took me 6 months to get something lined up. The market is weird right now.

Found this to be an interesting versus blog and wanted to know other people's thoughts.


I have good luck with Protonmail and it still supports POP3. You also get the benefit of encryption.

I would stay away from Tutamail, I've had bad customer support experience with them and they refused to give me a refund. Also, the UX/UI is rough.


You can’t integrate a third-party mail server unless you pay, right?


Protonmail looks great! Thx


Tuta is dog shit, agree on both accounts.


Shout out to SwiftFiddle: https://swiftfiddle.com

It's another project for writing Swift in the browser.


Yes there are a few but swiftly.sh is the only one that works offline in the browser!


Any recommendations for getting started in Gentoo?

I was taking a look at their documentation and it seems quite comprehensive. Though I was wondering if there are any books or tutorials that the Gentoo community also values.

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:Main_Page

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Main_Page

I only needed gentoo wiki and gentoo handbook for everything from the begining. You can read arch wiki for more instructions.


Awesome thanks :)


the handbooks are a true treasure trove.

other then that id recommend to look into (which will all be in the handbook): emerge, eselect, equery, eix (packages/tools related to package mgr)


Thank you for posting this blog post. This post has helped to clarify Nim and how to approach it.

To find tools for Nim I've found the Nimble Directory useful and Awesome Nim list. Are you aware of any others?

HVM: Hugo Version Manager is an interesting project worth a look.

https://github.com/jmooring/hvm

Helpful for switching between different versions of Hugo.


Every problem in computer science can be solved with another layer of indirection.

(And in particular, every design failure related to backwards compatibility can be solved with a virtual environment, evidently)


At what point in this ever deepening well of abstractions does one simply use Wordpress?


Hugo is a static site generator, so I can host my site anywhere that can serve an index.html.

With Wordpress, you have to worry about PHP, a database, etc. It’s the difference between being able to use GitHub pages, and needing either a VPS or shared hosting


> Hugo is a static site generator, so I can host my site anywhere that can serve an index.html.

As long as you have access to a computer that can run Hugo Version Manager (and who knows what else).

I am being facetious, obviously.


He knows that. :-)


No. Just…no. Replace WP with any other hosted or self hosted solution. Been there. The plugin hell, the security hell, the performance hell…WP has many levels of hell.

Here is an experimental for Guile Scheme. While it is currently for VSCodium and Emacs looks interesting.

https://codeberg.org/rgherdt/scheme-lsp-server


This LSP performs reasonably well and having used it I'm not sure it's fair to call it "experimental". There's certainly some room for improvement in the code (e.g. diagnostics don't seem to run consistently with every change was the big one for me).

The greatest barrier I had with it was the installation.


I know about it but that's only part of the problem, afaik you can't use breakpoint in Guile and dependency management is still non existent.


Does anyone have recommendations for which Julia books are worth reading? I've found lists of Julia books but wanted to prioritize my time and get up and running for software development. Any recommendations are appreciated. Thank you.
