Wouldn't "Videos to make you happy" a better description for this show hn? I couldn't find a way to "share" anything, it seemed more like a feed of videos.

I know that's how the saying goes, but I don't think I would be saying now that I'd wish I had gone traveling if I had not done it. I'm pretty such I would not be wishing for traveling if I'm at the same state of happiness as I am now, and I could have reached the same level of happiness in life if I did not travel (possibly even earlier).

Traveling objectively made me worse off than if I had not done it.

I look back and my traveling days and I think I'd be better off doing something else during that period.

It seems like traveling and adventuring has been glamorized by the media and people around me a bit much and I caught the bug.

Looking back, I would have preferred to spend more time at local gardens, participated more in neighborhood events, helped out local community more and got to know my neighbors better. These activities to build a deeper emotional connection with people around me would have helped my mental health tremendously back then.

I'm not saying I regret traveling, I'm saying that the main reason why I took time to explore the world primarily because of the glamor of it and me trying to chase the next crazy adventure, all the while contributing to global warming in my wake. Traveling is not for everyone and I hope fewer people give out a blanket `travel the world` prescription and more people are willing to admit that maybe traveling didn't do shit for their growth.

This beta group has been going on for a year, early 2019. Our retention rate is really poor, until today's posting about 400 signups and only 8 made it to the end. The current first phase is actually to answer this question:

"For the students that complete the whole curriculum, could they contribute to a codebase that users use and follow good coding practices like an engineer would?"

The answer is yes, so now we have a happy path. Next phase is to increase this funnel.

Really cool, thanks for sharing. Didn't know I even had a need for Kubernetes IDE until I saw the site.

very interesting idea. I've come across projects where functions are exported for the only reason of testing it. This library makes it so that your helper functions get to stay privately scoped inside the file.

not sure what your point is... should I stop caring because it makes no difference? You care because you care.
