I've been working from home for the last 2 years. It used to be tough since I was an avid procrastinator. What I learned is that a disconnect can form from your work and the reward you feel when you do a good job. This can especially happen on long tasks where the right solution keeps evading you.

So what I do now is this, if I'm feeling like the motivation is not there, I'll look over all the tasks I have to do and I'll work on the easiest task that will provide the largest amount of visual feedback.

For example, if I'm working on the front-end and there is a task to update the style of a generic button, if I update that button the whole app will look different since it's a generic and it's everywhere.

This provides a sense of accomplishment and usually kicks me back into gear and gets me excited to work on something harder with a potentially much larger reward in the end.

An important caveat, the task should only be associated with the project. Working on your editor config should not be part of that task list.

How else do you explore frameworks? Do you wait until you have some massive project with financial and time constraints and then test it out on that?

This sort of site is a perfect testbed for such a framework.

Loads quickly. Looks good. Nice and simple UI. Well done! If you're looking for the next challenge, consider making it render server-side.

Why does the status page say resolved when S3 is still down for parts of US?

Why does the AWS status say the issue is resolved when it obviously isn't? S3 is still down in parts of US

Same here. At the time the status check on AWS was not reporting any issues and there was nothing written about it online. As a result I assumed it was an issue with my account.

I only confirmed it was on their end when I noticed the favicon on the AWS console wasn't loading.

That's a fair point. I tried running Ubuntu & Arch on my macbook and was horrified to find that you have to set up and the fan regulation yourself or else the thing will just cook itself.

Not to mention the fun you'll have setting up the wifi and the especially good luck getting multi-touch support work just right.

Personally I use a notebook for a checklist so it's in front of me at all times.

I keep any helpful notes in a format that I can search through. Just a folder with a bunch of txt files that I than use FZF to comb through.

And I use git as a journal to jog my memory about what I was working on and general project progression.

I wonder if that's working for them as a core selling point. Does having an open firmware really steer people into buying one of these laptops?

I'm curious to hear from an actual buyer on why they purchased that laptop when there are so many linux friendly options available.

For web dev I've been running ubuntu on a virtualbox on my macbook pro for years. It's pretty much just as fast as my fully specced out desktop.

Consider the fact that hardware wise they seem to be seriously lacking. All of their laptops have a 1920x1080 display. My 6 year old macbook has a 2880x1800 display. 6 years old!

There are a ton of linux friendly options on the market now with 4k displays and even OLED displays.

Good idea although realistically this won't be an easy habit to form.

I find that you can achieve essentially the same thing by just using git often. I commit as often as every 15 minutes. It takes literally 10 seconds. Why not?

Then the next day all I do is read the log and there is your journal.

Nice project.

Until you implement server side rendering you will have a difficult time getting this project off the ground.

Having your article indexable by search engines is critical for 99.9% percent of people that use these sort of mediums.
