I’m thinking about making my gallery page as so that I would be able to add images from my phone. Right now it’s possible but bit hacky way of doing things.

“everyone loses 10 years to something, somewhere along the line”

Source: This HN comment

Explaination:

Read through the thread. Look how many stories there are of people losing years and years to something that they now regret. The realization is that this is the norm, not the exception. We’re all just fragile and fallible and trying to make our way through life as best we can, and we all end up messing up big somewhere along the way.

It’s easy to look back on 10 wasted years and think you failed, you blew your one chance at life. But if you come to realize that looking back on 10 wasted years is actually a common human struggle, it can help you reframe your regret as just another one of the trials of being a limited, mortal human and not take it so personally as your own failing.

When giving a sales pitch (or in general) use the word affordable instead of cheap.

Guys, I can’t wait to make a Chinese version of my site

22:35 — #145

I seriously need to find a way to optimize images. 3-4 megabytes of images are totally unacceptable on web. 3g network or even 4g would have a hard time loading it. If you think you can help me with that I’ll appreciate it. Contact here.

Appimages are better than flatpaks. Vscodium from flathub requires 500megs of dependencies, whereas vscodium appimage is only 100MB.

I did some UI/UX tweaks on this status website.

• fixed position of “Newer posts” and “older posts” button at the end of the page.
• added new “go to top” button.
• new “sort by tags” option at the end of the page.

That’s all.

16:04 — #127

Found a cool website that lets you add comments, it’s better than Github comment thingy. Because it doesn’t require login. I’m not sure if I should do it. I’m afraid of spams.

Here is their homepage.
