About 4 months using #neovim and #vim in general. It was a steep road, and often I questioned if I should continue. At this stage, I am very comfortable. Hours of coding mean nothing to my fingers. Very ergonomic, very nice!

I always wondered why some people say you should read classics. Based on my experience, it does two things: it helps me pay attention to details, making life more enjoyable, and it improves my understanding of my feelings. I used to get anxious about things without knowing why,

Currently learning a TypeScript course on YouTube, about 2 hours long. How much TypeScript is enough? Should I continue with documentation myself, or do you recommend a more advanced course? Any resource recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Some books I'll be reading this year. I read technical books usually in ebook format that's why they aren't here.
