Hello everyone, In this article, I want to share with you about my last year, more specifically about my web development journey. I am gonna talk about what I went through, what I learned so far, how did I learn, how did learning feel and why I am learning web development. Some of the shared details might not be fully accurate since I can't remember everything accurately but I will just tell it how I remember it. Letsi go. Wordpress Phase I started learning web development in August 2023. Before that, an idea about writing a blog had suddenly popped

Lately I have been thinking about this question. Why does one do something rather than nothing? Because technically every person on earth could just stop doing anything and they would all die in a short amount of time. You do not drink water and you die after a few days or maybe you die sooner for some other reason. Then why are people not doing that? Why question might seem like an irrelevant question, the argument defending that would be "Why questions are really how questions and there is no why. There either is something or there is not something

I have been struggling with this question. I have been learning web development for around 1 year, I learned significant amount of stuff. (See what I have been doing here) And now I have been thinking about the question "Now what?". I could learn something compeletely new, I could learn something new related to web development technologies or I could try to build a project with stuff I learned so far. Which one of them should I pick or should I pick something other than those options? If you clicked to this article thinking that answers to question in the

I sometimes go through intense feelings of uneasiness. I don't know how to describe it really. I just feel uneasy/anxious. If you asked me what am I feeling anxious about or why do I feel that way, I honestly could not give you any answer because I can't tell. I also think sometimes we tend to associate things that are not necessarily directly related, so even if I came up with a reason for my anxiety, that does not necessarily need be the actual reason or there does not have to be any reason at all. Just because your brain

We all have lives. It is probably the only thing that we can be sure about. Because definition of life, status of limited existence and experiencing, applied literally to what we are doing. In other words, we all exist. If you wanna argue that we do not actually exist and it is all illusion or something, go ahead and do that but keep in mind that this "illusion" is the only thing you ever know of and there is nothing outside of it as far as we know. So whether you call it illusion, life or something else, we all

Hello everyone, in this article, I wanna write about how do I feel and what do I think about when I am doing the act of writing. Here it goes. Writing feels good, for me, there is no doubt about that. I am just doing it in my free time. I believe I would not do it if it did not feel positive, I mean who would be doing things that makes them feel bad in thier free time, I think no one would. You might ask here "How can you tell if it feels good?". My answer to that

Hello everyone, in this writing I wanna talk about the concept of job and what it might and might not solve once you have it. Job means stuff that you do regularly to get money. Money helps you survive. Therefore we might be tempted to say that job is stuff you do to survive. However, that is not entirely accurate. You might be living in an island in isolation and you might be doing stuff to survive. Yet the stuff you do does not classify as a job. Generally speaking, you have to be in the capilatistic system and be

Lately I have realized that I look at the clock way too often. I look at the clock even when I am doing "hobby" activities and such. Hobbies are supposed to be enjoyable but I am not able to get much enjoyment out of them. And the funny thing is even if I got enjoyment out of them, there is always this crippling doubt that it will end and I will start suffering. So people talk about flow state, which is all well and good, however flow state will end eventually. That realization itself is going to make your flow

I have been learning web development for over a year now and I developed 2 projects with the stuff I learned so far. Even though I am happy with what I developed, they did not get much attention. This website (Flick Articles) gets no visitors whereas my second project (KelimeSavaslari - Turkish Scrabble game) gets around a few visitors once in a while. Now I am not writing this article to complain about how no one cares about my projects, but rather to discuss "Now what do I do?". Do I keep improving those projects? Do I start new projects?

First of all, I wanna explain what antinatalism is for those who don't know. Antinatalism is belief that it is immoral to bring children to this world. I find myself agreeing with the notion again and again. So I thought I might write a little bit about it and why I am one. I wanna preface it all by saying that all of our thoughts and opinions are subject to change, so my current antinatalism can change into something different in the future. But that is not to say I don't agree with the notion. I agree with it pretty
