So, which of the following is the most interesting to you:

• CSS Layouts and modern techniques
• Learn ReactJs 16+ (with the new features such as Suspense, Portals, Error Boundary or Server Components )

🌴 Some non-coding things that I've enjoyed lately

Recently I've started to delve more into the investing mindset and the link between a balanced life and healthy financial principles. I really enjoyed the conversations between Morgan Housel and Tim Ferriss (part 1 and part 2). And also the William Green podcast with Tom Gayner (link).

Therefore, in this note, my weekend movie was Dumb Money, about the GameStop short squeeze from 2021. Quite a good movie.

Well, that's all folks! Be smart, be kind, and keep coding!
