• GiveDirectly – Send money directly to people who need it most

  GiveDirectly is a great org that’s working in data driven experimental way to identify effective ways to donate. I’ve donated to them for years. In a similar vein is GiveWell, https://givewell.org/, who research and identify the top charities to donate to to maximize dollar impact. Their mission is to simplify giving by just telling you a very small number of orgs, removing any need for analysis or choice.... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Sam Bankman-Fried and the effective altruism delusion

  When I donate to http://givewell.org , I don't care about the relative value they place on arms and legs. What I care about is avoiding pseudo-charities. You know, the ones that pop up in exposé articles every now and then where most of the money goes to marketing and admin, a tiny sliver goes to the actual cause, and then a clown car pulls up full of people who try to rationalize how this is actually a good... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• What life changing thing can you buy for less than $100?

  Givewell.org. It is a charity evaluator which uses extensive research to investigate the best, most cost-effective ways to help people in the world today.

• Why does a 13 and 14 year old has a gun?

  You should definitely help random strangers! Do it by contributing money to stop malaria, or whatever the current top charity on http://givewell.org is.

• I have a contract to be cryopreserved after my legal death for the chance of future revival AMA

  I unfortunately don't think that the 45€ per month that I spend on my cryonics contract would be able to save the poor. Also, it's not an either or. I regularly donate to charities with good rating from givewell.org. I'm not giving every possible penny I have, but my guess is that neither are you buddy. Source: about 1 year ago

• Cloud Resume Challenge - Chunk 3

  This required me to revisit my Hugo website. I opened up the developer tools in Edge to figure out which section was which to decide where I wanted to place my hit counter. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Cloud Resume Challenge Chunk 1

  I am not a front-end web developer, and UI/UX design is not one of my skills. So, rather than fumble around trying to make my resume webpage look good, I decided to use a static website generator.

• How to deploy your own website on AWS

  Hugo Existing themes will get you a website quick, such that you only have to modify color schemes and layouts. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Good alternatives to Heroku

  And last but not least, Netlify, which is the one I use to host this website(for free). Hugo + Netlify is a powerful combination. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Building static websites

  At one point though I realized there is a scaling problem with my build minutes. I knew that golang has considerably faster builds and in my case the easy fix is swapping over to Hugo. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago
