I spend most of my terminal time in bash and vim, so little slowdowns in either disproportionately drain my time and energy. Since mid-2019, I have smoothed over warts in those tools by creating new shortcuts and by learning more about what the software already offers!

Mojolicious apps come in two flavors, Lite or Full. Lite apps are great for proof of concept but Full is better for robust apps. Can you move up from Lite to Full? Absolutely, we call it "growing"!

Webmention is a recent, W3C-approved technology that aims to promote the proliferation of independent websites through a simple protocol of open, cross-domain notifications.

I have been obsessed with this technology for the past two years, and I will try to explain why, sharing a lot of resources for further study.

I have covered this technique many times--in the Doorhangers DVD (NOW on YouTube for FREE!!!), in the Doorhanger's Handbook, now titled Installing & Hanging Doors (AMAZON), in Fine Homebuilding, in JLC magazine, at shows, on my website, etc. etc., but finally, here it is on YT--a technique every carpenter should be familiar with and CAREFUL when using!

Here is a breakdown of how to achieve the ideal forward lean in running:

• Keep your core up and tuck in your hips
• Hinge at your ankles and not your hip!
  Running is falling with style!

A proper forward lean ensures that your body's center of mass (located around your hips) stays slightly ahead of your feet.

Why do we give away all this sauce for FREE on Youtube? We want beginner and intermediate players to learn from these videos and start winning NOW, so when they are ready to climb to high stakes they come to Hungry Horse to take the next step.

In this video, I break down the basics of online writing. It’s the most distilled version of everything I teach in Write of Passage.

You can find notes from the workshop here: https://www.notion.so/bronsonchang/David-Perell-How-to-Write-Online-Workshop-2021-02-10-6cfaff84afd84b6592db2eb4461b3e40

I talk about:
How to improve your ideas through note-taking
How to write so people will want to read your work
How to build an audience of like-minded people

This talk focuses on that evil little term “UX/UI,” which is responsible for so much confusion and tension in open-source projects. Not only does it unnecessarily pit programmers against designers, but it also limits our vision of what we could be doing.

jenson.org

• Could - Should - Might - Don't

• Non-designers think of UX/UI as pixels-only: icons

• Designers think statistically (opinions), Programmers think mathematically

• 24:25 - "The most common product mistake is rushing." (more and more stuff)

• Loops are better than individual controls

• The iphone is a consumer machine, not productivity

My workout with Ben Patrick, better known as “Kneesovertoesguy” (@TheKneesovertoesguy). Ben is the founder of Athletic Truth Group (ATG), an online and brick-and-mortar training system rooted in rehabilitative strength and joint health. After years of debilitating knee and shin pain (including multiple surgeries), he rebuilt his body and performance, going from a sub-20″ vertical to a documented 42″ leap.

This beginner friendly tutorial will show you how to cut out an image in Photoshop. Many struggle to refine hair selections when creating subject masks, however this video takes you through the steps of how to remove background around lots of hair.

For this photoshop tutorial, I chose an image from a not ideal situation, demonstrating one method of cutting out hair from an extremely busy background.

From the album: WOW Now That’s What I Call Digital Trust

🔐 It happened again... another expired certificate, another outage, another avoidable disaster. But this time, we’re singing about it.

The turn is where your pots grow, decisions get tougher, and costly mistakes often happen. In this video, you'll learn how to take control of the turn and squeeze maximum value from your best hands.

• When to keep betting and when to pump the brakes
• How to recognise turn cards that shift the dynamics
• How your opponent’s range changes after the flop

• Key concepts like delayed C-Bets, Check-Raises, range interaction, and when to fire those No Equity Probes!

00:13 - Pot Controlling On Dynamic Turns

• Check back with top pair on dynamic boards - too many 2nd best hands fold if you bet turn

04:43 - Make Sure You Consider The Check-Raise
