Regarding your "earn to give", I feel like I want to play devil's advocate and ask why not cut your salary in half by working or volunteering on more humanitarian projects and charities? Not sure the pay would exactly be half less, maybe even more, maybe less, but the net positive of what you do may be greater? (I say that, as if we can measure such impacts :p)

I've considered doing directly valuable work, have tried things along these lines in the past, and may try them again in the future. For now though, I think earning to give is a much better fit for me: https://www.jefftk.com/p/earning-to-give-transcript

Pixel user here too. You have to enable "Google Lens suggestions" in the camera settings for it to read QR codes automatically.

Drop down menu > Camera Settings > Google Lens suggestions.

In addition on my pixel 3 you can open camera app and long press QR code. This works with or without enabling lens suggestions.

So, double press power button, long tap QR code, and click link to visit site.

I see tests in the repo :p

Yikes, my bad. I didn't see a test folder. I am just learning JS coming from an enterprise Java background. We've got our own pile of shenanigans as well, probably just as bad as the JS world, don't worry!

Don't worry, you can have your public static AbstractProxyFactoryBuilder with Typescript to make you feel at home.

Ok, I am done with this. Anyone wanna start a tea shop in a small town in Asia? I am down. We can bootstrap it, live a simpler life and mingle with the locals. May be even create a little ordering system, postgres v9 in the backend, running on a dingy moth balled Dell PC under the cash register and use jQuery frontend, of course limited to 1024x768 resolution monitor from Compaq with a broken power button.

Small towns in Asia have millions in population :D

yup. my town in java have 1.6 millions people :)

Can I, please, join too. I will do all the interfaces in XUL and will optimize the heck out of it to work on IE.

I would unironically love to do this.

Sign me up. Procedural PHP4 preferred or Perl/CGI.pm.

I approve of this stack. No version control because we would just do this in one shot and the never add any features. The time saved will be spent with friends at the tea shop. An occasional bug fix for a customer that ordered over 32768 rupees of tea for a wedding party.

LOL! That customer is my wife. ₹32,768 is a good sum for tea. (If this is Indian Rupee, btw, it is less than $500).

Lapsang Souchong takes me back to my student days with Pascal and Wirth.

So you are just learning JS but felt legitimate enough to post an unfair rant?

Yep! I have been in similar situations where you make a mistake and you get out right rejected. Surely it's better to explain the mistake to me and then we can discuss it. This can also be a nice cultural check too, how well do I respond to my own mistakes? It's a shame most people don't follow your idea here.

so if a tree falls in the woods and nobody is around to hear it.. it didn't make a sound? ;)

maybe they were on their phone?

what about netlify drop? you can get a website up and running in seconds ;)

do you have a link to the talk?

Yes: https://youtu.be/himvKu12YCY

with imposter syndrome you have self doubt, but having self doubt doesn't mean you have imposter syndrome. at least to my understanding and experience. so the difference can be confusing and it's easy to label one as the other. but i also appreciate your concern, my friends use imposter syndrome when they sometimes mean self doubt.
