Do pomodoros (similar to above).
No zero days/don't break the cycle (made famous by Seinfeld).
Leave a small task to do for next time, making it easy to get into it.
Set a realistic goal/project to make with your learning rather than learning open ended (could be the reason for your plateau, as it can be interesting to get into something initially but hard to maintain after the low hanging fruit is learned).
Blog about each topic/micro topic/learning.
Get peer feedback/reinforcement by announcing to someone or a community what you are working on or learning and when you will finish.
Good luck!
To show that person's role, skills, recent activities back to themselves? Is it a resume creator of some kind?
Or do you mean the content is supposed to be representing the site owner (job seeker?) and that the content being changed accordingly to match the visitor's (assuming that would be to target their interests).
Sounds interesting, signed up.
Is this the first one?

As for advice on how to improve it-- my best advice is to see it as talking shop with a fellow coder. Let your guard down, discuss areas you both overlap. At least half the time I would need to be extremely patient while they attempted to contribute, but it's what you do as an interviewer to attempt to coax out the best in a candidate, similar to what _ah said in their response. Sometimes they come through sometimes not, which is the point of the interview of course! Good luck, and have fun meeting some new people. I've kept in touch with some, have learned a lot from others, and seen some around the office, I always enjoyed that aspect of it as well.
Then they each have a similar but slightly different way of unfreezing it. And some allow it to be unfrozen for a short amount of time, or for 1 request, or for a specific merchant.
Seems there's a lack of standards there and I wondered if it works. I verified it did when I tried to sign up for a new cell plan in a mall once and they said it was frozen. Said I would need to unfreeze 2 of the bureaus if I wanted a chance at passing their credit check.
Play framework you mentioned is a fine choice because it's somewhat of a rapid development framework and there's a big community around it.
I would skip the frontend animations for the MVP as they don't bring anything unique to the table, which is what you need to focus on if you are bringing yet another marketplace to the world.
It's actually possible you can get the MVP features you need by using something like WooCommerce, but it would only be a speed increase if you or your developer(s) know the framework better than something else.
