"I want to kill myself"

"I’m currently navigating a period of intense personal disruption and am re-evaluating my long-term bandwidth. I’m looking to sunset my current journey and pivot toward a permanent exit strategy. #MentalHealthMatters #CareerPivot #NewBeginnings"


Can I just say that your blog's design is so beautiful and readable? Do you mind sharing how you built it?


right click -> inspect

HTML looks pretty handwritten (lack of crazy css classes and simple structure)

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fi-le.net/css/tufte.css">

They are using tufte.css https://edwardtufte.github.io/tufte-css/


Thank you! As the other commenters already figured out, I manually write HTML and use tufte.css with some minor customizations.


Part of it is this tufte.css: https://edwardtufte.github.io/tufte-css/


Doesn't sound very labour-law friendly


'murica


People call each other incompetent as the entire country is outsourcing them and then wonder why there's no worker solidarity.


It is reachable, however it is pay-walled.

Breaking Bad if Hank teamed up with Walt.


My questions about what you remember that show being about aside, you don’t need to be a chemist to make crack. It is kind of famous in its simplicity of preparation, like Jello.


What if they have regex'd that field?


If they use a regex? https://linkedin.com@i-dont-have-linkedin.com?linkedin.com/

If they do it the proper way? It's all ogre

You shouldn't use regex to parse URLs, you should use the URL handler that comes with your language (ex: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URL/URL)

```js

    const linkedin = new URL("https://linkedin.com@i-dont-have-linkedin.com?linkedin.com/");
    console.log(linkedin.host);
    // => "i-dont-have-linkedin.com"
```


Neat trick. Firefox does give a warning about it:

> You are about to log in to the site “i-dont-have-linkedin.com” with the username “linkedin.com”, but the web site does not require authentication. This may be an attempt to trick you.

> Is “i-dont-have-linkedin.com” the site you want to visit?

If those sites are even more clever than a regex, they might bin your application for this.


What kind of HR writes scripts to check for weird URLs in people's links

They're orders of magnitude more likely to bin your application for a thousand arbitrary reasons than to have specifically implemented something that weird

You shouldn't live your life around things that will likely never happen


Ends in LinkedIn.com so that'll pass some of them at least.


Hopefully they just match on linkedin.com


I use a simple todo.txt and have everything I need on there. I use notepad to work with it.

I get shit done.


I also prefer just a txt file or pinned Keep note for todo lists, but I maintain about a dozen different lists, and not everything gets done. Occasionally I will do an audit and remove things.

Are you just in a scenario where you have absolute control over what you do and on what timeline?

If not:

Do you ever lose track of older items (i.e. forget about them for a long time because your eyeballs don't land on them)?

How do you decide when to remove something that isn't done?

Alternatively, if things never enter the list faster than they leave, how do you predict whether something will or will not violate that rule at entrance time?


Can Zapier and similar tools be considered a spiritual successor to Yahoo Pipes too?


In the same sense a zoo is a spiritual success of the wild for a lion.


I have no idea what this analogy means but it made me laugh :-)


Less features, more shiny, and your reality is limited to what contracts between third parties allow.


Try Garmin Instinct? It's a digital watch (not analog) and more of a fitness tracker than a smart watch. You can disable any notifications you don't want.


That's where I ended up. My Instinct has replaced my mechanical watches for every occasion except for the most formal. The app is decent, the metrics are awesome, and the accessories work without fuss (I pair mine with the Heart Rate strap when doing kettlebell stuff). I love my other watches and still have one or two I will eventually convince myself to buy, but the Garmin Instinct 2 has been on my wrist for 90% of the last year.


Time to terrorize crossfire with the glu-on gun again!
