My Varmilo VA87M

Cherry MX Brown - to make it similar to the Sun Type 7 keyboard I was using previously (excellent keyboard however too wide).

Falsehoods programmers believe about time

This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Don't re-invent a date time library yourself. If you think you understand everything about time, you're probably doing it wrong.

Falsehoods

• There are always 24 hours in a day.
• February is always 28 days long.
• Any 24-hour period will always begin and end in the same day (or week, or month).

How do I clone a GitHub wiki?

Any GitHub wiki can be cloned by appending wiki.git to the repo url, so the clone url for the repo https://myorg/myrepo/ is: git@github.com:myorg/myrepo.wiki.git (for ssh) or https://github.com/my/myrepo.wiki.git (for https).

You make edits, and commit and push your changes, like any normal repo. This wiki repo is distinct from any clone of the project repo (the repo without wiki.get appended).

How do I add images to a wiki page?

How to get in touch with your emotions

I wanted to share something I've learned in the course of therapy that I felt might benefit others. Specifically, I'd like to share how to better listen to one's emotions.

Why should we do this?

You might wonder why would we want to be in better touch with our emotions. One reason why is that everybody builds a metaphor or narrative for themselves
