A bit of a nit: the background image features Machu Picchu, but searching for Peru yields no results.


[facepalm]


I'm a bit rusty now, but I used to make a lot of pasta and enjoyed teaching friends the wonders of making pasta. There's a learning curve as many other commenters mentioned, but once they "get it" it's magical.

I would organize parties where everyone would bring different ingredients and we'd make ravioli from the food we had. With noodles, some guests wouldn't understand why make the effort. But with custom ravioli, they would immediately understand it.


I feel like every company I've worked at talks about "exploring" a 401k match every year, but never makes it happen. After a merger or acquisition, they'll bring it up again but it never happens.


I thought that this would look for unique words rather than just cycle through all words. You should have a default ignore word list that includes things like el, en, de, etc etc.

It appears to be cycling through all unique words.


It's confusing that you had to scroll up to realize the article isn't by Martin Fowler.


I have a hobby blog that doesn't have to do with coding, but I post on substack. I enjoy the features on substack, but I would advise that you set up a custom domain if you post to substack.


What's the reasoning for the custom domain if I may ask?

I've been writing small Swift/iOS related newsletter on my free time but I am still using substack subdomain.


To build an identity that's easier for your readers to remember and to start getting "credit" for SEO even if you're not actively optimizing keywords, etc. Why let substack reap all of the benefits?


This provided an entertaining five minutes of entering silly company ideas to see what matches. Yeah, I wouldn't enter anything I'd remotely want to pursue.


You can eat them raw too. I used to break them up and put some (not the whole pack) on top of salad, kind of like croutons.


I wish the author gave examples of thins they’d omit from the “overstuffed” curriculum.


Haha, literally YMMV (your mileage may vary)!
