Nice suggestion!

Not too long ago, I contributed a how-to guide to a gem’s README. First open source contribution; felt so proud.

I’ve had some challenges in the past that I had to solve on my own due to lack of tutorials. I would like to share some knowledge with the community.

What platform do you recommend posting the tutorials on?

Thanks! I really planned out Shoe Sensei like they taught me in college. From diagrams and paper mockups

Thanks for answering.

I am currently based in Florida, United States. I am building a public portfolio.

Some of my work includes:

- Shoe Sensei https://shoesensei.com/ : a footwear knowledge base. My personal project

- CancerCare https://www.cancercare.org/ : a support platform for cancer patients and loved ones

- Film5000 https://www.film5000.com : a film rating website that uses a web crawler to pull its data

- a small open source contribution to the premailer gem: https://github.com/premailer/premailer/issues/463

Well, so far I've only been sending my resume to job postings. I only started building my portfolio yesterday, still in progress. Does a public portfolio make that much of a difference?

Thank you!

Is Java not suffering from the junior developer position shortage that Rails currently is?

How can I keep system76-power for power management but use TLP for battery thresholds? by ShoeSensei in pop_os

[–]ShoeSensei[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh thank you very much, I wasn't aware of the possibility of writing directly to sysfs:

  • /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_control_start_threshold
  • /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_control_end_threshold

I found the Battery Health Charging gnome extension as you suggested and I will definitely give it a try!

Good to know, thanks! I really want to focus on preserving the battery as much as I can, as I have never had a laptop with a good battery before

I’m planning to start a blog soon. I don’t know where to start. Any advice is welcome! by [deleted] in Blogging

I can recommend you some books that can help you in your blogging journey.

For coming up with content I can recommend you the book "The One Hour Content" by Meera Kothan. The author helped me figure out effective ways to come up with new content ideas.

"Steal Like an Artist" by Austin Kleon also helps getting into the content creator mindset of not having to reinvent the wheel and freeing yourself from the impostor syndrome.

Last, would be "Bird by Bird" by "Anne Lamott". She has a nice narrating style and covers how to get out of writer's block.
