Got you, sorry. I had in the back of my mind, that guides / courses fall into that category too. But good to know :)

I am working on my text course about Deno (https://niklasmtj.de/deno/course/). With Deno 2.0 just right around the corner, I'm excited to get this course into the hands of possible new users. I really like how Deno does a lot of things better than Node. With a toolchain similiar to other modern language enviroments (e.g. Golang) it helps a lot not thinking about "What might be the hot package to use right now".

Right now I have 3/7 chapters ready and I am working on the 4th right now. It will be about Deno on the CLI, learning about the permission model, getting user input etc. creating a small CLI application as a single file binary (deno compile)

After abandoning a lot of smaller side projects for years now I wanted to push through and ship something that is not just some hours of work (read <3-4 hours). I learnt that I have a lot of fun writing about and trying to teach things that I'm interested in.

That's true. I'm a huge fan of the `std` lib. I also appreciate that it is even compatible with NodeJS projects, so I can use those helper functions in "legacy" projects as well.

There are also the `npm:`, `node:` and `jsr:` specifiers now. So you don't have to use the URL imports if you don't feel them.

Oh this is funny to see. I just posted a blog post talking about Email Aliases an hour ago without knowing about the Bitwarden announcement.

I would love to see aliases being promoted more and more by companies. In the end most companies want to get in touch with you via e.g. a newsletter. So why do they need exactly your private email and not just an email alias. In the end they're reaching the same person.

That is actually to be discussed. I started thinking about putting it up on Udemy but in the meantime I was thinking that I might just put it in a .zip and just distribute it via gumroad. Or even use their video hosting platform.

If you have recommendations let me know!

The ins and outs of the Deno runtime. Since I want to build my first text/video course about it.

On the one side it could be a cool side project where I can help people getting their hands dirty with Deno and follow my passion on teaching interesting topics to folks. On the other side I want to push a project of myself over the finish line and maybe make a dollar or two with it.

This. "Atomic Habits" was a game changer in forming new habits for me. Especially the point of habit stacking is something that sticked with me.

I recommend the book to everyone who is interested in forming new habits or getting rid of old "bad" habits

There is outline for that: https://outline.com/skRR3T

Did you check if your public IP changes after this minute? I don't know if this still happens but back in the past my router did this every 24h to get a new IP.

Same here in Germany. Gmail says that my account can not be found. Plus Google's support page is also down

https://www.headspace.com - started half a year ago and meditated everyday since then.

This is something I also learnt this year after reading The Headspace Guide to Meditation & Mindfulness by Andy Puddicombe the founder of Headspace.

After only 10 minutes of meditation you feel a lot better than before. I can not recommend it enough to try it.

I use the Headspace App for the guided meditations and it's free to learn the basics in 10 sessions/days.

Since you mentioned that this would be an internal web page for your friend's company Netlify does not seem to be the best answer for that. When there is already a working nginx just push it via FTP. If you know how this is done, do it like that.

Sure there are those "cool" new ways but when you know how this could be done in a way you are familiar with go for it.

But if you have the time and the page does not have to be running asap go that way with building it around Vue.js and webpack etc.

Lost Connections by Johann Hari

About the sources of depression and anxiety of the current society. Interesting book backed with a lot of studies.

Since you use MD files for "organising" you may have a look at Notable [1] which is Open Source and uses MD files under the hood. And you can tag your posts to organise your projects

Personally I use a combination of Bear App [2] for Mac to organize my Notes. Bear has a built in tag function which is really easy to use. Also I'm a huge fan of it's minimalistic design. For ToDos I use Things 3 [3] which let's you categorize your ToDos in different projects.

But both are Mac only currently which is a pain point at work where I use Windows.
