Building a Simple Chrome Extension with ChatGPT

from Marc Astbury [alt+shift+b] in programming

I’ve casually been learning some JS via Mimo and Udemy for the past couple of months. It is fun and I get some dopamine seeing a nice animation when completing a lesson on Mimo, however, it is pretty abstracted from a real environment. I learn things best under two conditions:...

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
