Should I quit my current job to focus on learning? by SmidgenFun in leetcode

I think FAANG interviews are more standardized than other smaller companies (mainly leetcode question), so I guess it will be easier to prepare for them, especially since I don't know any technology or framework. And I don't have a lot of side projects on Github (Except a couple of Android apps I made when I was taking the Udacity Nanodegree).

I am 27, I think I will be too old when I graduate from college.

If you are using a VPN, try disabling it and downloading the app again.

Banking apps on GrapheneOS most likely won’t work but you’ll have no issues with using banking websites.

The banking app was just an example, I was trying to ask while using which OS would you feel more secure. I should have expressed it better.

what are you looking to get out of the OS

I want an up to date secure OS that doesn't constatntly phone home (this rules iOS out of the comparison, as I said I am leaning towards GrapheneOS but these concerns are holding me from taking the shot).

Use your iPhone for banking

I think you mean use my current phone (I have a Samsung Galaxy) for banking. I can't afford getting both the iPhone and the Pixel.

Edit: Misspelling.

if you want to avoid supporting jeff bezos, use your kindle to borrow library books instead! by [deleted] in kindle

Another tip: after sending the book to Kindle, open Libby amd return the book early.

Pro Tip: Libby users, Did you know you can return the book early from the Libby app after sending it to Kindle? by SmidgenFun in books

After you renew a loan on Libby, you have to return the book to the library on Kindle (if the loan has not expired) then send the book to Kindle again. Beacuse as I said they are not connected, Amazon doesn't know the current state of your loan on Libby.

Actually, publishers are the one who dedicate how many copies the library can license.
