I loved the combined view of reminders and email that 'Inbox by Gmail' used to provide, in the lack of a more sophisticated solution by GMail, I just email reminders and Snooze them to the appropriate day. This little hack works r

Never split the difference by Chris Voss - so many practical tips to ensure that you get the better side of a bargain. Mythos by Stephen Fry - an irreverent take on Greek mythology which is fun and entertaining.

The interesting bit is that the original author's no longer feel that SICP is the right way to approach programming any more. In their words, we've moved to 'programming by poking' and hence the latest incarnation of the

I'm currently trying out https://covve.com . It has some of the features that I need like reminders, deduplication and CRM-esque features. I don't like the UI much but it's not that bad either.

I use Anki at the moment. Anki makes it easy to search, recall and recollect all the details. I've toyed with GitHub, Evernote and markdown files but the greatest issues with all these topics is lack of active recall and that fact that

For most CS related content I prefer reading up, but there are particular domains which can't be captured by reading for example - fitness, analysis of movies, learning to play an instrument.

I was wondering about your rationale for not using another app like Anki. I'm a big fan of email and loved the integration of reminders with email of the like provided by Inbox (and sadly missing from Gmail as of today). But I am also

IMHO, journaling is just a means for honest, regular self-reflection. Some people like talking to themselves, some people like writing their thoughts down. Do whatever calms you, I personally like to write things down as it helps me organiz

Almost everyone is on Java 8 now, and people are warming up to the new release cadence of bi-yearly releases of Java. Even with Java 8, you get streams, lambdas and powerful Collection classes. Personally, I've worked on sizable projec

I think developers all over are converging on the idea that we need type safety. Python has typing now, TS is JS with typing (pardon me for the oversimplification), and golang which is taking the world by a storm is a statically typed langu
