What brings me joy is creating and sharing.

Give me a problem and strap in because we're going to the moon, T minus 5, 4, 3 ... 🚀 🌙

Sometime I write about Obsidian...

@czottmann Most of time just the standard search. But sometimes use a 'search workspace' for specific topics.

I am #LookingForWork. Unfortunately, I joined the ranks of those affected by #TechLayoffs last week, very suddenly and unexpectedly.

I'm a #SoftwareEngineer with over 20 years experience in the industry. I've worked primarily with #PHP, #JavaScript, and #TypeScript, but can also handle #Python and #Java in a pinch. I also have some experience with #AWS, #Docker, and #Terraform.

My resume is here: https://github.com/elazar/resume

Boosts and leads are much appreciated.

@picardtips Actually consistent! Remember Wesley (a child) conducting experiments with the warp core. That's beta!... It's only the engine.

@Thomashegna I don't understand being upset because other people are rich and wanting to take from their children. What does this fantasy achieve?

If I could attend that Shark Tank meeting and have a billionaire explain how they earned their success... I'd arrive early and prepared to take notes!

Rationalizing that success is being born to the right parents is a limiting belief that keeps people poor.

People would be better off if they emulated successful people.

Be rosy, you'll achieve more

@Thomashegna
Who is really on the "shark tank panel"? Consumers. Why not learn how they were so successful? If we ask a billionaire how they became wealthy their first answer won't be "short-change workers". No, they created business system(s) that delivered massive value, employed thousands, while sacrificing their time & assuming the financial risk.

You can choose to become wealthy too and influence your destiny but limiting beliefs may keep you poor.

Choose action over fantasy. They did.

@ellane 📃 absolutely has its place for a quick note or sketch while staying present. And it also acts a filter for your vault (... is it worth typing this up 🤔?)

Rocketbook was fun!... Assign an action to a square on the page, fill it in, take a photo, & the transcript is sent to your Google Drive (possibly in your vault)! Then wash it off and do it again.

A large Boogie Board is useful to save 📃 when doing exercises.

But I NEED rich media & scripting!

The 📂 "improve later" keeps me focused.

@kellan Jokes aside...

When I started using dataview, I had the same query in many, many files. It was a pain to update (even with "🥷 scripting skills").

Then I discovered you can reuse your queries! Simply put it in a JavaScript file, and import it using Dataviewjs + dv.view().

This leaves even more time NOT to complete those todo items. 🙃
