Great for you. To me is not so much a matter as to how much time but the timing. After all, you could as well be reading the most elevated book saga. On the contrary, there's the addiction of doomscrolling.. I have seen friends scrolling posts on social media even while on a pizza night surrounded by others. Or trying to have chat conversations with potential dating partners instead of an actual phone call. That's the kind of thing I believe is troublesome, the lack of "here and now" awareness. And something similar goes to the constant checking. For example, if you or anyone uses their phone 4 hours in total, I'd say it's better if that's on bigger chunks than if it's just a millon of small distractions throughout the day hindering many other activities.
Yes. I believe all self-hosting apps are like that. As an example, I have a docker container running Searxng and I use it locally on my PC as default search engine. Just keep in mind that docker compose port mapping (e.g. "3000:80") attaches to all available IPs unless you specify it like "127.0.0.1:3000:80".
There were times during my programming career that I just started the whole work from scratch, rethinking from the top (where I want to get) to bottom (how I have been doing it). I am sorry that I cant help you anymore, but please give this a try. Do not remove what you have, just ignore it for a moment (a day?) and start over. You might hit another wall, or no. Who knows? Good luck!
"Regression to the mean", it was studied a century, or so, ago. It's not about stress directly but the average/ natural/ non-stressful height is the most probable outcome indeed.
Not offline but self-hosting available , there's LinguaCafe it's like book reading web app with tons of niceties. I am yet to try it for myself.
SourceForge never updated UX, some devs still use it but indeed github won. I think federated social interaction will win at some point. Git is distributed itself, but user accounts, follows, notifications, etc. would benefit of federation. Forgejo might make it sooner or later .
No need of VPN. But it wouldn't harm if you wanted to have more privacy
I'm using github.com/mag37/dockcheck for this, with its "-d N" argument. There's a tradeoff between stability and security, you need to decide for yourself. It will also depend on what services you're hosting. For example, nextcloud and immich would be disastrous under such a regime.
I would prefer you ask for a specific community to be created with its own rules and moderators. Thanks! I wouldn't mix everything in here.
I don't like the article. Finishes with quoting AfD, like giving those words the relevance of being the "one" truth. Other quotes, to center-left politicians were along the same line, and the article only criticism was that they are just trying to keep up with the far-right narrative. Yet, the article misses completely the opportunity to offer any other perspective. I hope there's other ways to seeing this "criminal - migrant/ refugee" correlation. First and foremost, correlation doesn't imply causation. Secondly, refugee and migrant are two different things. Thirdly, "migrant" is full of ambiguity that needs to be presented: a proportion of skilled workers are migrants too.
But I did like Biden's move. Many migrants and refugee need to work. Providing the means to do so, or removing some of the restrictions can help integration to their new society.
Standard library of course. And collections module too, among the others that come by default. What you need is assignments to solve. Like project euler or hacker rank.
