Yikes, this sucks.

It is ironic that Cloudflare is letting go 1100 of employees, while roughly 6-7 months ago, they were aiming to hire 1111 interns.

Great to see persistence. I miss those good old SWF days, had a right amount of animation and programmable logic; until the vulnerabilities start to hit and SVG/HTML5 became mainstream.

Out of curiosity, in the name of science, are you also making the source (and/or steps taken) available for the folks to learn and understand the internals?

Steamdeck as a gateway to Linux, anyone? Connect monitor, keyboard, and mouse - and wholla!

One of the podcasters I listen to, introduced it to their 4 years old as gaming device. Also, Valve seems invested to make a linux experience better.

I'd recommend trending repositories (you may apply a language as well as time filter).

https://github.com/trending

Checkout plethora of topics such as "awesome " repos for general exploration on any topic!

https://github.com/topics/awesome

There's also reverse interview question repo that I personally like.

https://github.com/viraptor/reverse-interview

Github also offers community curated collections of repos, for example there's one on chrome extensions to super charge your github experience: https://github.com/collections/github-browser-extensions

You'd be surprised to see what all you'll end up exploring!

PS: after writing this, I felt as if I am promoting github, but hey gitlab will always hold a special place for me.

One of my favorite company with the true remote/open culture.

GitHub is yet to match the features GitLab provides. - Especially small but interesting features such as Group / Sub-group, much mature SDK/API, Better CI, and Web based Folder creation.

Competition is healthy, it brings in more benefits for end users.

No wonder Apple took this step!

Many users are unable to enable Video feature even after applying recent patch released by Zoom. Also zoom has become security joke/conversation topic while starting a con calls!

The way each one of you are changing the world, and sense of intellect our community has is incredible.

I learned a lot by just reading through conversations here and in many other threads over the time. HN is helping me become better version of myself.

Thank you to each one of you!
