That looks good (not actually cloned and tried it yet).
However the screenshots in the README show (for me anyway) as broken links, even though they work when clicked on. I can see you're linking to the images in the blobs. If it helps, for my own stuff in the README I link relative to the README file in the actual source. So for one of yours for example I'd use: ./ubiblio_menu.png
This also has the advantages of both being self-contained and also working locally (eg in the VS Code preview) before you've pushed the images.
I blog for the (admittedly infrequent) pleasure of it; I have no expectations, and my page hits confirm that.
In the last 180 days there's been 2507 visitors to the home page, 2803 to the robots file, and 5965 to a page that shows some domains I might sell (but otherwise has no content at all).
The actual article pages averaged between 90 and 170 visitors total per page over those 180 days.
As a numbers thing it isn't worth it (for me). However I have had recruiters cold-contacting me based on my blog (and github), and a publisher wanting me to edit and peer review a technical book. So it can open up new possibilities regardless of the scale of the readership.
(Edit: I don't re-post anywhere else as whilst I have accounts on the socials they are unused placeholders)
> To avoid this problem, the scientists surgically implanted mice with electrodes and fiber optic filaments. Although the rodents are tethered to a set of cables, they can fall asleep normally while researchers track blood volume, electrical activity, and chemical levels and use light transmitted through the fiber optic lines to activate certain groups of neurons.
I detest this kind of medical research. It's horrific barbarity.
If the output is important enough for this kind of activity to take place, then it's important enough for humans to volunteer to be the subjects. If nobody volunteers then it isn't that important after all. Leave other species out of it.
I've been coding for around 45 years, the vast majority of them in a professional capacity. I still code an hour or more most evenings and at least triple that at the weekends.
I love writing software. Over the festive period I wrote a text-based double-entry bookkeeping system with balance sheets and income (p&l) statements. For no reason; I just wanted to.
And that's how it is for me. In my own time I code what I want and purely for pleasure. Sometimes it relates to work, but it is never actual work stuff.
My work-life balance has the usual family aspects, but the main thing for me is making that clear distinction on what my motivation is for what I'm working on. As long the motivation isn't for work benefit that's fine, even if the learning outcome does eventually help there.
Similar - I use Bitwarden for passwords and Authy for 2FA so a compromise of only one of them is not a disaster (assuming a site supports 2FA which my important ones largely do).
Authy is nice because it takes care of replication, but once you have all your devices synced I'd disable adding new devices, otherwise it'll expose your 2fa in case of SIM card breaches
> After seeing people lose cryptocurrency first hand through the LastPass leaks
The reason for those losses was partially that LastPass was encrypting with extremely low iterations on long-standing accounts (it also may not have helped that they didn't encrypt URLs either). That was a terrible practice which isn't duplicated by credible alternatives.
As a matter of opinion you may still be right, though personally I consider the risks of a bad password to be higher than a leak purely because without a password manager making it simple to use long random passwords most do tend to be bad ones (duplicated/short/guessable/engineerable) as those are the only ones that are memorable.
It's the usual trade-off between security and usability, with the perfect being the enemy of the good, especially in regard to pushing less technical users to solutions which may not be ideal but are still much safer.
I loved DBase II and DBase III+ but then I switched to DataEase and did some huge database systems mostly running on Netware. Whilst I used Clipper, FoxPro, and others, for that genre of non-client-server text mode databases DataEase v4 was the ultimate (for my tastes).
It didn't do well in the Windows transition and doesn't get much of a mention these days, although dataease.com is still developing and releasing stuff (the old DOS editions were the pinnacle and stuff since then is forgettable).
Dev fonts is usually synonymous with fixed width (mono) fonts, and for good reasons. Those reasons are discussed by iA Writer in interesting detail [1]. However they do so as a precursor to their own duospace font, "iA Writer Duo" [2].
It's a compromise, but one that works well (for me). Basically IBM Plex but with m, M, w, and W being 50% wider than all the other characters.
Sounds odd, but is very legible and usually fine depending upon the context of its use.
