Sounds like yet another echo chamber...
Will be interesting so see how they plan to tackle the issues of factuality and bias in the articles they feed users (if they plan to address that at all).
Media Bias Fact Check describes it as a very right-biased outlet with questionable factuality. They are also categorized as "right-biased" by Ground News, "right-leaning" by AllSides and "far-right" by Wikipedia. Maybe not the best source for neutral and factual news coverage?
It's just a landing page using a modified Hugo theme, I believe.
Not really a front-end person, but it does the job. And it performs great on Website Carbon:)
Thank you so much for this!
Maybe Porto? Never been, but I've heard great things! Maybe check out the Nomadlist listing (heh): https://nomadlist.com/porto
While I love the premise, it should do a better job of keeping track of active and secure instances of the different services. I've had a lot of trouble with broken redirects.
If I had to learn algorithms again, and especially if I had to self-study the topic, I would personally choose a somewhat lighter textbook as an entry point, and then use CLRS for more rigor when needed. I used Skiena's excellent book for this purpose, but Sedgewick's might also be a good option. Note that Skiena doesn't cover all the topics in CLRS, but you should find most of it in there. But what you DO find is a much entertaining and motivating read.
What would you say are the prerequisites to the Analysis books? I did single-variable calculus and linear algebra in university a few years ago, but I have to admit that I'm a bit rusty.
Thank you so much for posting this! Found it a while ago and found it very inspiring, but I recently tried to find it again without succeeding. So thank you!
«Kolonial» means something like «grocery store» in Norwegian ️
This looks amazing. Haven't tried it out so far, but it does look promising. Most of my peers use Windows though :/
Do you have tips for making money through technical writing other than writing for Digital Ocean or starting your own shop?
Student and writing enthusiast here ️
Great concept!
There should be an undo button, though. Especially without a brush size preview.
Didn't know we used to have a computer industry here. Shame it's all gone now :/
Do you have more information about that startups course? Looks very promising by the looks of it, but the resources they provide in the schedule section are a bit sparse :p
Doing this part-time studying + working thing right now, finishing up my first year of Informatics/CS after changing my major.
For school, I'm learning networking. Finding it a bit dry, especially learning about packet structures and such. The book we're using, "Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach" by Kurose & Ross[1] is great and the authors' personalities really shine through!
For work I'm learning about databases and how to gain access to it from a web app. The world of databases (specifically PostgreSQL) and SQL is entirely new to me. Currently trying to figure out how to best connect my Flask app with my Postgres DB.
Currently learning Rust whenever I have the time/motivation. It's a great language with some really clever design choices, but it's a pain in the ass to learn, especially without experience with lower-level languages. The incredible amount of other cool languages, such as Clojure and Elixir, can make it hard to stay focused!
Also been meaning to get into vector graphics (Affinity Designer[2] is on sale right now) and philosophy, but you know...the usual excuses. Honestly, the incredible amount of CS-related topics I know nothing about, including some really basic ones, makes it hard to study anything else out of sheer guilt.
As for philosophy, if anyone are curious, a book that was recommended to me by a philosophy major buddy is "The Problems of Philosophy" by Bertrand Russell[3].

I am a native Norwegian speaker! How is it going so far?
