I am using a simple Jekyll theme minimal-mistakes[0] which I customized to suit my needs.

I'm hosting my blog[1] on GitHub Pages, the repo[2] is public so you can take a look and fork it if you find it interesting.

The setup is really simple, straightforward, and no-cost.

You're welcome.

Yeah sure, thanks for asking. I actually do quite a lot of traditional art. Everything is on my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vlad__siv/

Third post is done using Piet programming language. If you run the code i.e. picture, using Piet interpreter, you'll get a link to my blog.

Amazing! Recently, I've done some digital art using Piet programming language, it kinda reminds of that, just with lines and dots. Awesome, keep up the good work!

I think many suggest that we shouldn’t define our work and identity by our employer or specific job role. Instead, focus on building your expertise in the field and career in general.

This approach allows you to avoid becoming overly dependent on a single company, unlike those who are focused solely on advancing their careers within one organization by relying on trust and loyalty. Those individuals often find themselves vulnerable, risking their positions over minor inconveniences or corporate decisions that are beyond their control.

By building your identity as an expert in the field, you create a more stable foundation for your career, regardless of the dynamics within any specific company.

> There are limits to how much of a good person you can be, those limits are set by the economic system we exist in.

> you should be upset about the system that is requiring those persons to act this way in order to stay afloat.

How would you change the system or modify the current situation in order to define new limits that are more, let's say, humane?

In the article, there is an example of an ex-Google employee that got fired via email, he couldn't say "Bye" to his colleagues after 20 years of working with them. That doesn't seem like a system with reasonable limits.

It's maybe deprecated by the official Nginx support, but there are other projects and organizations that are offering Lua scripting with Nginx with all kinds of extensions and libraries.

See OpenResty website[0] and Github repo[1].

I recently used embedded Lua within Nginx to alter requests on a reverse proxy using Lua scripting.

It's great that Lua can be seamlessly integrated wherever we need it, allowing for the extensions and implementation of custom logic. It's also popular in gaming and often used to develop different custom game mods.

You're right, it's missing the RSS feed. I wanted to add it but the last couple of months were really tough personally. Hopefully, I'll get some time soon to address it. Thanks for taking the interest!

As they should. As far as I can see, the second they ban the third party services, they will start pushing ads, hard. You'll be stuck with their official app and their website will use anti ad-blocking tech like YT is testing right now. So at the end, it's all about getting more money on the back of the community.
