Will be interesting so see how they plan to tackle the issues of factuality and bias in the articles they feed users (if they plan to address that at all).

It's just a landing page using a modified Hugo theme, I believe.

Not really a front-end person, but it does the job. And it performs great on Website Carbon:)

There should be an undo button, though. Especially without a brush size preview.

For school, I'm learning networking. Finding it a bit dry, especially learning about packet structures and such. The book we're using, "Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach" by Kurose & Ross[1] is great and the authors' personalities really shine through!

For work I'm learning about databases and how to gain access to it from a web app. The world of databases (specifically PostgreSQL) and SQL is entirely new to me. Currently trying to figure out how to best connect my Flask app with my Postgres DB.

Currently learning Rust whenever I have the time/motivation. It's a great language with some really clever design choices, but it's a pain in the ass to learn, especially without experience with lower-level languages. The incredible amount of other cool languages, such as Clojure and Elixir, can make it hard to stay focused!

Also been meaning to get into vector graphics (Affinity Designer[2] is on sale right now) and philosophy, but you know...the usual excuses. Honestly, the incredible amount of CS-related topics I know nothing about, including some really basic ones, makes it hard to study anything else out of sheer guilt.

As for philosophy, if anyone are curious, a book that was recommended to me by a philosophy major buddy is "The Problems of Philosophy" by Bertrand Russell[3].
