Have you tried Medium?
I had a blog about soft skills some time ago, I never had an issue with bots.
Truly wish there were more free Elixir screencasts.
I usually prefer the good old manual copy. But I am intrigued, what is so special about Kindle’s ? Don’t they burn your eyes with blue light like any other screen?
I would say the most important thing about learning can be summarized in a quote by Dr. Phill:
The difference between a dream and a goal are deadlines and accountability.
Set up specific goals with timelines. Things like “learn pattern matching” are horrible goals. A precise example would be “create a module that has 5 functions using pattern matching instead of if clauses”.
And set a deadline. “I will learn Elixir someday”. Guess what, someday is not a day of the week. Pick a day of the week and go for it.
Be accountable. Have you succeeded? Awesome, go have a candy. Have you failed? Examine why and try again, try harder - don’t give up. Being accountable is admitting you failed and continue on the road to your objective.
Hope my different vision helps
