Yes, I use Jekyll as gh-pages -- to host the website for my OSS project on github. It fits this purpose perfectly.

Great question! Todo lists are next to useless for me. For important stuff that I have to do and must not forget about, I set up alarm clock (without description, as such stuff is in the back of my mind anyway). The rest is kept in text files, notebooks, napkins, etc., which I re-visit periodically or remember about spontaneously.

The problem is not with code reviews but with how adversarial they have become. Instead of making the best attempt to comprehend and embrace the author's style and intention and finding compelling arguments for the question "why this code is probably fine and should be merged as-is?" people nit on all kinds of stuff, mostly highly subjective. Along the way they don't actually catch that many problems or bugs but instead new problems and bugs are introduced while implementing their nits. All surrounded by a lot of noise that has to be dealt with in an already stressful multitasking environment. I agree with other posters in this thread that most people can't code review for crap and have very perverted idea about code review aims and goals. Code reviews as they are practiced now only serve to destroy trust, velocity and team morale. As someone noted elsewhere in this thread, if it's me (directly or indirectly) who's going to be held accountable for a deficiency in my code, whether it has been reviewed or not, why do I have to adjust my code to someone's arbitrary criticism? Common sense tells me that not requiring to have my code reviewed at all times and, by doing so, stressing my personal responsibility for the things I do, would actually increase my sense of ownership and keep me on my toes, more likely leading to better coded/tested changes, wouldn't it? I.e. it is not about blindly trusting all code that I produce but rather trusting in my ability to judge and make final decisions: to request code reviews or not, to address comments or not, to do my job as I see fit or not.

It's like one of the most wide-known facts about Warren Buffet is that he likes fast food and coke and even bought himself a diner. Or that Bill Gates drinks (or drank at some point) at least one can of coke a day. So cute, so down to earth! See, they're just like us!

Holy moly, that's a lot

Yeah, not everybody has to work with networks or cryptography, but I would've imagined that people at least read libraries that they use (to figure out what's going on under the hood) and inspect/debug low-level stuff from time to time.

One more example: itch in one's throat and nasty suffocating cough that does not stop for an hour. Surprisingly, this might be caused by reflux (without the accompanying stomachache).

I imagine it would be pretty easy for someone not used to dealing with gastritis on a regular basis to attribute such a symptom to "COVID".

I can absolutely feel a kind of religious zeal and moral superiority from the pro-vax side. It will be hilariously stupid if long-term side effects turn out to be real.
