So I removed auth for the main page you login at and the links to tags. Everything else will require login. I think this was a great idea, I've been in my own bubble and yes, not everyone is just gonna login.

I think I can safely setup all the routes as unauthenticated except for the post pages (where you can comment) and create post pages pretty quickly.

I built this as something I needed for my portfolio, and to challenge myself as a developer with only 3 and a half years of experience. I know the code is kinda bad, but I also know I'm not a horrible dev, so I really wanted to learn as much as I could during this project.

I'm using auth0 for oauth, SSL, and express in my node middleware. I'm using Material UI and react-router for my frontend.

If anyone noticed I left client secrets, or finds a bunch of bugs, or just has general suggestions, I'd really appreciate getting sent them to [email protected].

I don't believe this argument for a second, with the ubiquitousness of successful Electron apps.

I understand that Electron apps tend to be a resource hog, but what other options for software create as many cross platform opportunities with as much work? I think for every single greedy developer/company there's another small software project only able to get off the ground because of the maximized opportunities. This is coming from a relatively new full time developer who's trying to get a small side project off the ground.

Anyone have suggestions for these?

The cooking thing really hits home. I work in a high stress, banking environment at a fortune 500 company, and I eat out most days. I know theoretically how to cook, but between the time it takes to shop, cook, and clean, AND I'm doing well financially it's so hard to convince myself to cook. Living alone doesn't help either.

Is this the result of a decreasing amount of patriotism across the US? Or maybe it's just money.

I especially feel this, my fiance is a biologist, we each have our own "language" we speak. I've learned more from him about communication than anyone else I've ever met!

I would invest in a pair of nice noise canceling headphones. They work wonders for me and are a must have in open offices.
