I'm not familiar with SteamOS and Valve hardware in general. Could I play something like Overwatch on this, and connect keyboard and mouse? Could I play other PC games like World of Warcraft?

World of Warcraft is the closest thing to the metaverse. But I'm biased since it's my favorite game (TBC, WoTLK, etc)

What's an alternative library that doesn't turn large/complex frontend code into spaghetti code?

So skills are basically preset system prompts, assuming different roles etc? Or is there more to it.

I'm a little confused.

Can't see myself paying more than $200 for this device.

I don't think you realize that those two issues are related. https://x.com/zei_squirrel/status/1895539811576135866

But then again, most Americans seem to have no issue with AIPAC having near full control over congress. Because if they did, we'd have seen more outrage and action.

Stranger Things immediately came to mind when I read the headline. Aside from the amateurish writing and the storyline that quickly became complete non-sense, the look and feel of the show was very much the equivalent of a fast-food chain. Overly saturated colors, everything looks punchy and overly sharp.

This is something I've struggled with my whole life and still do to this day.

I've had one of the worst educations, considering Egypt is at the bottom of the barrel for it's schooling system. So by the age of 25, I realize I haven't learned anything substantial.

I've managed to escape that somehow and now been working at high growth companies as a Deisnger and SW developer in SF.

Yet, because I'm basically self-taught and don't have good foundation in many topics such as Math, Compilers, and other important topics, I find myself extremely intimidated to approach such fields. For one, I realize I'll need to invest a lot of time to grasp them. Second, I get this feeling of anxiety that I'll never be able to get to the level I wish to be. Anxiety that can sometimes reach the level of a panic attack.

It sounds dramatic and maybe even pathetic to admit that about myself, but I'm still trying to figure out how to not get so worked up about that stuff when I'm learning and feeling hopelessly stuck to fully understand something.

Needless to say, I have a lot of work to do on myself.

You can use both strategies depending on the book.

If you're unsure about the book, then strategy number 2 is better. Skim and find the interesting bits, if any.

If you know it's a dense book and you value the subject and think highly of the author. Then strategy number 1 is better.
