I think you’re underselling the amount of sophistication and refinement that goes into a modern ICE, which is the backbone of a big part of the global economy.

Nice write up!

After a couple of attempts I settled on a a different approach for my old Kobo.

It can connect to Dropbox so I deployed a small app in Fly.io which takes a link, bundles it as an epub and uploads to the right folder. Day-to-day all I use is a bookmarklet

Author here, thanks for posting this!

If anyone has any feedback, questions, or any additional examples of deep/shallow abstractions they've used recently, let me know!

I'd have to agree. I personally found that the book's structure with the themed chapters doesn't lend itself to a continuous reading; but going in small chunks as the authors intended, the commentaries felt a tad better.

- So Good They Can't Ignore You. Even though kinda 'self-help'-ish and repetitive at times, it played a role in shaping the way that I think about my career.

- The Daily Stoic. A collection of snippets from stoic philosophers, tied with examples from modern living, it was a good and lightweight introduction to philosophy.

One thing to try might be contributing to Open Source?

Choose a project that looks interesting to you (ideally with a large community and modern tech stack) and join their Slack/Discord/Mailing List. You'll need to be patient and humble and it's going to take a while until you feel really comfortable, but read a lot, ask questions and try to contribute small bits here and there.

This will put you in touch with many interesting and experienced people, plus it's usually a great learning experience.

Come on, no offence, but you sound like astroturfing.

I have no idea how you may be aware of a company's internal information, but the greek article you linked does _not_ mention rating system names.

Also, but when using e-food there's no way to actually rate delivery people, only restaurants (like you claim above with "Negative reviews from customers...").

+1. I couldn't get it to understand the partial derivative symbol ∂, unless it was drawn in a very specific way.

But really cool idea, name and execution!
