I use notion as my "inbox stuff". Whenever I see something interesting (book, article, whatever), I use the chrome extension and send it to that inbox. On the phone, I can also "share to notion" which sends it to that in

I strongly recommend "A Practical Guide to Linux Commands, Editors, and Shell Programming". It's a great overview of many things linux & command line. Very approachable for beginners and more than good enough to make them

And just as a curiosity, were you taking nap? What about the weekend? I'm curious as I have a few friends with a similar problem (I.e. struggling to wake up early for work). But they often party hard the week-end and wake up between 11

You say "You've followed every advice", but what were you trying to achieve exactly? Is it that you can't fall asleep or that you're not productive in the morning, or something else? Personally what worked best for

Would be great to have that insight on the landing page. Most people (including me) will first make a judgement call looking at the landing page for a few seconds before deciding if they want to learn more and go through the specs & exa

Such a great landing page, clear examples and documentation. Good job! By the way, there seems to be a css bug in the FAQ/quote section (The text shows dark grey on a dark grey background)

Sucks that Sam lost his bet because as far as I'm concerned he "won" his point (I.e. there was clearly not a bubble and all these 1,2,3 companies did amazing). Still, it's great that it's going to a charity

I really don't understand the examples. Would be great if the readme could start with some easy examples and build on them (rather than starting with a parser).

Not OP, but if you inspect the overlay, just right next to it there's a <script> with a closeOverlay function. OP probably tried to inspect/delete DOM element and found that function.

Silly question but on facebook/twitter, most of the fake news I'm getting isn't from ads but from random people I've added over the years that are sharing a bunch of crap. The fact that they'd be paying to access th

My take on it is you can add so much more value to a product with ML, but to succeed you need to have a lot of data. So you're getting into a "We need to grow really fast to get more data than our competitors so we can add ML and
