mrsareenon Sharing with everyone 4 mindmaps of key takeaways from “The Epic Guide to Agile”

Great outlining and tremendous effort. Much thanks for the share.

mrsareenon Ask HN: How do you get yourself to sleep when you want?

To attain this super-power one needs to learn how to put yourself in peripheral vision(looking at multiple things at any given time). Now close your eyes and see the difference. This is also a powernap technique. Pls refer my article on this - https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/state-our-eyes-nitin-sareen/

mrsareenon What's the best headless CMS to integrate into React/Node stack for web dev?

Try Pantheon hosting drupal 9, very easy and visual to create REST endpoints and their free tier will be a cherry on top.

mrsareenon Ask HN: Have you found a good desk chair?

Would strongly recommend POMODORO technique for all computer professionals. Everything else is just a growing side business due to the lack of knowledge of our own physiology.

mrsareenon Ask HN: How would you build and host a CRUD app for a small charity org?

Use pantheon.io hosting for a wordpress or drupal hosting, its free if you don't associate a custom domain. In a headless formulation, you can use them free forever! Plus its darn easy to implement CRUD on any of them.

Fork a svelte frontend and host it over services like netlify or vercel which too ofcourse are free!

mrsareenon Ask HN: What has been the biggest contributor in improving your sleep?

Learn peripheral vision. Here is my article for the same - https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/state-our-eyes-nitin-sareen

mrsareenon Ask HN: Faster and cheaper cloud service to build MVP WebApp

Have you given headless CMS a look? I'm specifically referring to Drupal hosted on Pantheon. This is a completely free backend that can fulfill your requirement list. On top of it, use a JS frontend using Svelte/Vue/React and use again a free hosting like Netlify/Vercel. I've built multiple MVP's with this approach and found it to be quiet convenient.

mrsareenon Shell Monitoring Script

There is a automatic restart option in systemctl that solves this exact issue -

[Service] Restart=on-failure RestartSec=5s

mrsareenon WebADB – Run ADB self contained in the browser

Hey, any chance this can work with a reverse SSH tunnel to allow a phone to managed over WiFi?

mrsareenon How can I improve the quality of my sleep?

Pls try to do this very simple trick -

Put your eyes in peripheral vision mode (looking at multiple objects at the same time). This helps you de-focus and helps de-stress your eyes and facial muscles. Some what magically your brain goes into relaxation mode which eventually helps in deep and fast sleep.

Have been doing this from about 8 months, never failed me once.

mrsareenon Ask HN: Front end framework to learn as back end developer?

If you're seasoned enough in Javascript, I'd strongly recommend sveltejs [svelte.dev]

Its very easy to get started and can help you accomplish pretty much everything. And yes, its very fast too.

mrsareenon Ask HN: What technology to chose for a web app in 2020?

Svelte.js (svelte.dev) would be my recommendation for frontend.

mrsareenon Easily replicate/clone your Linux install

Here is a link for the documentation - http://foxclone.com/download/foxcloneV12.pdf

mrsareenon Easily replicate/clone your Linux install

You're most welcome, this is laid out as a simple point & click GUI tool that anyone can burn and boot from. The author's main intent is to alleviate users from somewhat unfriendly UI of Clonezilla. I used this for ubuntu based pop-os

mrsareenon Easily replicate/clone your Linux install

Came across this fantastic utility that is completely FOSS. Intent was to upgrade my smaller SSD to 1TB. Stumbled upon foxclone.com

Experts from the site :

"FoxClone is a Linux based image backup, restore and clone tool using a simple point and click interface. Booted from its' own linux system, it takes images of the partitions on your hard disk (HDD) or solid-state drive (SSD) and stores them for later restoration. Image files can optionally be compressed to save space."

The software worked blazingly fast as SSD's were employed at both ends that too without a single error! I booted from the new SSD and was blown away with the ease of overall process.

The creator of the software has declined my request to reimburse in any way possible. Hence I'm sharing it with HN for all Linux users.
