I built a RSS feed viewer (https://rss.nkit.dev/) that is also a podcast and youtube player. I wanted it to be my primary window to wide west of internet. It is still work in progress but I'm happy that I can listen to podcasts/watch_videos on it without being pulled into recommendations. To use, give it a link to raw text file with rss feed links on separate lines (I use github gist for this), I know I should use OPML when the time comes.

I also built an android launcher (https://github.com/nkitsaini/nkit-launcher/) that has a single page grid of big icons as home page. I keep all non time consuming things on home-page and everything else I need to search for. I never see original icons of the app in my launcher.

Hi! I have been working as Full Stack Software Engineer for around 3 years now. I am a fast learner and recently I have been interested in learning more about CS (like compilers and networking). You will be able to find some examples of these in my Resume.

I have only written two blogs. One of them is on rust other on my frustrations with TDD. TDD one is more of a joke. I don't think it'll be of much interest to others. But I guess no harm in putting it out.

For me the main benefit of Obsidian is live-rendering editor + other handy features. Not having to look at two panes side-by-side (or having to parse the markdown format in my head) is such a QOL improvement.

Neovim might never be able to provide complete live-rendering. I don't blame it though, I wouldn't want terminals to become a rendering engine.

Edit: Grammar

IIRC I saw an interpreter somewhere where each input program is quine, the interpreter name rhymed with `hat` as I remember it.

While I agree that this is a human nature, I do hope there to be a more systematic way of improving the situation here.

For example, last year I was having a lot of trouble with managing all the tasks, just adopting a simple note-taking strategy helped me a lot. I still struggle, but not as much as I used to be.

working for me on firefox with uBlock Origin, maybe it's some other extension (or some custom rule)?

This looks great. It's surprising how much mental energy is spent fighting these initial triggers like icons/clickbait.
