Thank you. This is what I was looking for.


Any API recommendations that comes to your mind?


Any website you use. I've always wanted to write a CLI tool for vultr to spin up servers with scripts instead of the UI. They may already have their own tool by now, idk


If you can afford a monthly subscription, I would definitely recommend https://frontendmasters.com/courses/react-native-v2/. I did the Intermediate React by Brian Holt on Froentend Masters. It was very good. The quality of courses offered here is very good.


+1 to that suggestion. this is something that I experienced as well. offlate most of the webapps are hijacking the back button.


I needed this, thank you for posting this.


wim-hof is a life saver. I used during my covid battle as well. I had this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tybOi4hjZFQ on loop when I was suffering with covid


Thanks for this. My pensioner mother came back from the doctors yesterday with a chest infection, on top of this she has mild bronchitis. I've just sent her this exercises as I'm hoping it might improve her lung health. Although i did send her this one which is a bit easier: https://youtu.be/0BNejY1e9ik But thanks for posting it, I never knew about this method. Just tried it myself and it rocks.


Wow, I can't thank you enough for posting this. I've been struggling with hypertension and anxiety for a very long time. I just tried the beginner exercise and couldn't believe the effect.

Not only could I hold my breath for longer then I was ever able to on my first try but also I felt relaxed and happy at the end of the exercise.

Thank you!!!


Wim-Hof almost killed me (that exact video). Please don't try it until you are in a state you can comfortably sustain 1+ minute lack of oxygen.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvH3lGUdcNM This video is by Noah Keagan, and he talks about a similar situation that you are in. Maybe this will help you. Wishing you the best.


Absolutely no offense to the author, but IMO for an experienced programmer the five minute intro does not make any sense. They will be better served by using the documentation (or) go by example in this case.

If someone is new to programming this in no way does any justice. Programming is way too complex to be fit in 5 minutes intro. https://norvig.com/21-days.html


One resource that atleast comes close to what you are talking about is the information at go101.org, not sure if you have seen this before. Especially the section on Go Type System and Concurrent Programming is really very good and they focus on how to leverage the feature correctly for the most part. Hopefully you like it https://go101.org/article/101.html


This was one of the earliest introductions to algorithms which I could understand. Thank you Peter (and MIT OCW) for diligently cataloging the notes, you've no idea how much you helped me to get an understanding of algorithms. Thanks again.

Apart from this his awk,sed and perl oneliners are worth to act as a reference as well.


His article about bit manipulation is very nice, as well. https://catonmat.net/low-level-bit-hacks


Hackers Delight is a pretty fun book on low level algorithms. Lots of little tidbits like how to convert a divide by a constant into a multiple by a different constants and a shift. Thought these days the compilers are good enough to do the same thing but now when you look at the resulting assembly you can figure out how they are doing that.


Even if compilers are usually good enough, people (mostly in the market making/HFT space) are still doing this kind of stuff. For example, division (and to a lesser extent, multiplication) is still avoided/hacked around in the fast path for these kinds of strategies.


That's a good call-out. It's natural for me, but I do see people struggle with bit manipulation regularly. A comprehensive, yet plain language intro, with simple examples, is really useful.

You can tell this was developed after extensive interactions with undergrads. It's really well done.


done.


and done well. Over the kind of coffee that matters. Nice job.
