GitHub - DrCatHicks/learning-opportunities: A Claude Code skill for deliberate skill development during AI-assisted coding A Claude Code skill for deliberate skill development during AI-assisted coding - DrCatHicks/learning-opportunities

Key to efficient learning is realizing how we ACTUALLY learn, not just what FEELS like learning. I wrote a Claude Skill for some friends to help them think about this and they've liked it -- see Principles for some directions you could explore

Gamer PTSD triggered toen Els het unbeatable level in The Lion King vernoemde. Dat was dan ook wel de Γ©nige correcte motivatie voor een genrieke AI gamer aid. Al de rest simpelweg niet mee akkoord omdat je jezelf ontzettend veel vreugde ontneemt van iets moeilijk te hebben gedaan maar te volharden.

You β€œcan” ask for β€œwater from the tap”, which should be free, but nobody does that and the waiter will probably give you a weird look.

That’s on you for ordering water, when you could’ve had beer for the same price!

Code first. Use ApprovalTests to catch yourself accidentally breaking the contract/schema. This way you don’t get handcuffed by code generation libraries.

Adding Kotlin to a Java project – tutorial | Kotlin

πŸ€” Curious about Kotlin but worried about rewriting your Java code?

No need – Kotlin and Java work seamlessly in the same Spring project.
Start with a single service and expand from there.

Check out our updated tutorial πŸ‘‡ https://kotl.in/rzdau2

The reason you might want to optimize for non-google search engines is because I think your target audience mostly doesn’t use google as a search engine anymore.
You can search SEO duckduckgo and check the differences with google. Most seo helps all engines.

πŸ€”Maybe for your blog it’s more interesting to optimize SEO for duckduckgo instead of for Google.
