Why not just play a new song, or a song in a different way? Maybe speedrun some set of etudes challenge.
jbki1121··on Thoughts on My Dating App?
It sounds like an interesting niche to target. My questions are 1) how do you build your username? I feel like dating apps need a certain critical mass of users before it can be successful. 2) on that topic, dating services always have a highly disproportionate number of males to females. In tech I assume it is much worse. Do you think this is a concern for you? 3) what are TC and GTFO?

jbki1121··on Explain the first 10 lines of Twitter's source code to me
if it makes any difference, I was referring to C, for which Make is the majority, I think - could be wrong, though, since I'm not a c developer.

But to the point, I'm not sure if the code at issue would be considered minutiae or not, but I believe that the more curious you are, the more you tend to dig into the details, and a person doing this over many years would attain a rich knowledge-base spanning depth and breadth. I know as a java developer that I've referred innumerable times the docs for the POM and settings structure in order to explore the limits of customizing my build, which would include the rather obscure features. Not saying this is technically comparable to meta tags in html, but maybe that's what the author was going for.

I'd say it's fair enough to consider markup as code ("code" in the sense of morse code)

what's wrong with that? surely a c developer would know their tools. I wouldn't call it a stretch to ask if a java developer could explain maven
jbki1121··on Ask HN: 27, accidentally became wealthy, lost drive. What should I do?
I don't have an answer for op, just I would like to understand more of this. As someone who has never made it big, I can only think that'd I could never stop being motivated in spite of great and sudden wealth. Can I ask, what motivated you to found the startups? and what were you looking to achieve, long-term, by investing?
jbki1121··on Ask HN: Do you have some well written resources on how to learn K8s as a dev?
What boosted my gains in kubernetes was this book, which I didn't even have to read all the way. Kubernetes in Action by Marco Lukša. After that, consuming the docs was easier.
