“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 faileoriginal ↗

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.original ↗

I did some UI/UX tweaks on this status website.
website now loads faster. It will now load 20 posts only, instead of 50 like previously. 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.original ↗

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.original ↗

You don’t have a deadline, you also never finish studying. Nobody’s going to judge you if you learn slow, learn fast or don’t learn at all.original ↗
