+1 to The Oregon Experiment. It was the first I read and I think gave a great taste of a lot of the ideas in a way that was reasonably understandable. I wrote up some notes at https://www.garethrees.co.uk/2020/03/08/book-notes-the-orego...

In 2020-2021 I participated in the Building Beauty Online course (the architecture side) and the Beautiful Software seminar. I wrote up as much as I could:

https://www.garethrees.co.uk/building-beauty/

Basically dump everything in ~/Downloads and then a couple of scripts to archive it off to ~/doc/YYYY-MM every month, then every now and then I might sort that into ~/archive/home/doc and ~/archive/work/doc.

Got a few context-specific directories; ~/src, ~/screenshots, ~/notes.

Search using Finder, find or ripgrep.

I wrote a bit more about it at https://www.garethrees.co.uk/2019/11/24/filesystem-organisat...

https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/datacurator/ are good resources for this kind of thing.

These guys (https://www.patreon.com/LaVagabonde) were/are running a competition to invite a handful of paetrons on board for a week or two. Seems like people go for it (https://youtu.be/zKwjPr9vINM?t=13m42s). GL!

"Amon supports only Rails 3." (http://amon.cx/guide/clients/ruby)

Is that the Ruby client Ramon or Amon itself?

Like you said, I get people to use Sinatra for a while before getting in to Rails. It gets them in to MVC style apps while keeping things simple. Definitely recommend it as a stepping stone to Rails.

If you can't charge more then you need to spend less time doing the work. Is there a way you can automate your process more?

Like I said, was thrown together in a lunchbreak!

Heh probably because I posted it here! Will sort it soon :)

They're probably (almost definitely) both automated emails. The point is that they're a bit better than "Hi. Click this link. Buy some more stuff from us."
