i have learned many language (german, english, french, japanese, korean).

i have used Anki, Supermemo, Flashcards, Watched Series, Read Books and the only thing that seems to work is:

- Spaced Repetition - Something you actually enjoy(learning should be fun) - Comprehensible Input

anything else has not worked for me.

* Navigate to openai.com

* Create new account (API)

* Deposit a small amount of money

* Click "Assistants"

* Create a new one, based on GPT-3.5 or GPT-4-turbo if you want to spend a few cents instead of millicents

* Enter "You are an expert Tailwind CSS developer and you fulfill the requests presented to you to the best of your knowledge" as the system prompt

* (add "The user will gift you a tip if your answer is good" for expert level answers)

* Navigate to "Playground" and select your newly created assistant

* Done

Alternatively, download llama3 or any popular and current open weight LLM, run it with llama.cpp or llamafile and enjoy ChatGPT-3.5 and above levels of Tailwind Expertise

I'm not saying the answers will be good, just that they will at least be at the same level.

__experiment__ commented on Request for Comments: New API Design Concept [pdf]   origami.ink/rfc_new_api_d... · Posted by u/__experiment__

I need input on this new API design, i call if 'Functional APIs(fAPIs)'

Given that hacker news is mostly developer-oriented i would like your opinion as to why we don't use "HTTP APIs" as mostly single functions instead of the REST and GraphQL horrors i see on a weekly basis.

why not:

https://example.org/api_json_create_new_user

body -> { 'name': 'new user' 'email': 'email@gmail.com' 'password_hash': '50e721e49c013f00c62cf59f2163542a9d8df02464efeb615d31051b0fddc326' ... }

200 OK

instead of

https://example.org/v1/users/create/new <body>

200 OK

i attached a PDF link with more details.

criticism is welcomed.

Enployees need three things to avoid becoming an uninspired cog:

1) Control

2) Responsibility

3) Recognition

Control and responsibility of a project but no recognition will demotivate quickly

Responsibility and recognition with no control means they’re a scapegoat for when things bad

Recognition and control with no responsibility is like a third party who will take credit but has no reason to ensure success

All three need to happen for an employee to care. If an employee is missing one or two of the three, they’ll feel it in their work

there are different people who value different things.

some value more control

some value more responsibility

some value more recognition

__experiment__ · a year ago
You have to understand that most APIs, most codebases, most designs, most documents, most ... everything

was done by people who did not receive the appropriated training in design patterns and has to glue something that worked in order to be proved by someone else

outside of a few orgs who chase excellency in every regard this is the reality for most companies, organizations and people. it makes sense given the circumstances they found themselves in.

it's actually quite impressive that anything works when you REALLY think about it
