no problems with wrist aches after using it for long?

I kind of expect it to be less problematic than a regularly shaped mouse, cause on the trackpad I could rest my hand in a similar way as on keyboard, with a bit of an angle. But never used my laptop for more than few hours not to mention to work on it for years.

but why? 20 inch is no longer a mobile device imo, what laptop should be. am I wrong?

hmm, a shame that this website is not listing anything on the icloud mail in regards to privacy. would be nice if it would show what problems are with it in terms of privacy

that's kind of double edged sword. If Apple would be to mask your purchases, they would most likely have to know about what the purchases are to hide them from the Bank. But in current state I assume (based on the infographic I posted in separate comment), that Apple doesn't know about the purchases much, thus they are not masked on the bank's side.

But I am no expert in this matter, so I may be wrong.

I'm not entirely sure if this fully answers your question or if it's still accurate, but I came across a graphic comparison a while ago that illustrates how Apple Pay and Google Pay handle payment tokens. According to this infographic, it can be assumed that Apple does not pass every payment through their own servers. As a result, even if they do store some information, it's likely not much.

is Apple iCloud Mail good to use?

This is a decent advice, to take this part of my career easy, focus on what's more important (the kids), and wait for when they will be able to spend more time together, leaving more for me. Soo, like 3 years from now at least.

Well, given how exhausting fatherhood can be and the stability of my current job, I might just continue learning passively through articles or books. Additionally, I could incorporate the advice from this post and spend some time during work hours researching topics that I'll need for my project. This approach would allow me to snipe two birds with one stone.

Thanks for the advice here.

Any information on 2FA app? I’m using it, but I don’t know how secure and private it is. Maybe I should switch to Raivo?

We do groceries via delivery, tho for us it’s more of a time saver to spend it with kids, instead of losing that 1-2h to go to the store. So, it’s not changing that much in terms of time for self improvement.

This is a very fair point, similar to what some other members wrote. The only thing I need is to organize my work time a way that will make this possible and still let me perform in a similar pace as I do now.

So, if I understand correctly, it comes down to managing my workload in a way that allows me to allocate some of my work time to learning. This sounds interesting, but I wonder if it's achievable in my case.

We once had an agreement to allocate 1-2 days per month to learning, but that quickly fell by the wayside due to the constant need to work on something that brings value.

However, if taking a break is not a natural and agreed-upon solution, then managing my time more effectively on my own could potentially make a difference.

and I can really relate to that part of the need to use that one day for some home errands or other stuff. this would also probably come with the payment problem for that day (depends on the job, contract etc). So, as long as it sounds good on paper, it’s not something that can be applied with no limitations or drawbacks.
