As they said during Louis the 14th's reign: "Si veut le roi, si veut la loi.", which translates to the law wants what the king wants.

Or just use LibreWolf. I've been using it for quite a while now and it has been great.

So you're basically a machine that spends their time working and taking care of your children? This feels like a one-way ticket to a burnout.

Love the article. One question; how do you unwind? I think it's achievable to spend enough time on both your career and your children, but consequently personal time will suffer.

How do you balance that?

I used to love the tradition of lighting fireworks but I think the way people have been using them has changed in the last decade. Everything seems to transform into a war zone and some people do incredibly dangerous things.

I have the feeling many more people feel similar. I loved the intentionality of sitting behind your computer with purpose back then. There was always something you’d want to do and when that was done you’d search for the next thing to do.

I’ve had the same experience getting into MTGA recently. If you don’t play the meta its very unlikely you’ll win the higher ranked you become.

But this must be the case for all competitive games right? At some point the meta has been figured out and there is no real way to deviate from that.

Same issue here. I want to migrate away, but rarely use email and I have it setup everywhere which would take quite some effort to pull off.

I recognize this too. There must be a correlation between the parents' level of education and the screen time the children have. Would be an interesting study.

Agreed. I don't get how this article has almost 400 points.. There must be bots upvoting this slop..

"Claude Code as a Daily Driver", which was also used to generate this article..

Also, how is "Explore, then plan, then code" considered "beyond the basics"?
