SaaS is definitely hard to price but some trends are hostile. Recently, Netlify contacted us about our pricing and we had a call with them; because we had more than 7 users, based on their new pricing structure we were consider "enterp

Interesting, I have a similar ability but for code. I write some of the best code when I'm not at a computer because it doesn't take any time to refactor and I can play freely. A lot of the time when I write new code it's jus

I'm skeptical of any fancy new database, because they have always been disappointing in one way or another, but this looks really promising! ORMs work fine for relational data, until there's a lot of edge data on the joins. I look

As a multi-decade Photoshop user, I find Affinity unusable. I know it comes very highly rated, but my muscle memory is so ingrained that I don't think I can make the switch. Not a single thing worked the way I'd expect, and trying

The announcers/narrators/players are unusually entertaining and I laughed quite a bit in the first 15 minutes. Thanks for sharing.

Can't do much about NPM, but webpack is legacy now, no reason to use it for new projects. You can use esbuild if you just want compiling, or vite (which uses esbuild and roll up) if you want compiling + bundling + front end assets. It

Rails very slow view rendering is one of the worst parts of it. GitHub's view_components library has some performance improvements that can be substantial in some cases. I wish someone would port how Elixir Phoenix does views, which is

Looks nice. How does it compare to graphql-code-generator? I've been using that tool for years and I'm happy with it, but always glad for improved tools.

Google doesn't allow prepaid cards last I checked. I tried to use a card from privacy.com and the Google form explicitly stated that you can't use prepaid cards.

That seems like a lot of laptop for sub-$1000! Where did you buy/spec it?

You can use vite for that, which is an enhanced wrapper for esbuild. I use it on all of my projects except the ones I'm forced to use webpack on for legacy reasons.

Good explanation. It is a nice progress bar, but not particularly unique; many command line tools use progress bars like this. I've always been curious how the Heroku CLI renders its progress bar, which is unique as far as I've se

When I am leading teams, I also ask for a certainty score along with the estimate, then track them together with daily updates. Like all human processes it is not infallible but it allows more reliable planning. I always wish I had a tool t

Automatic change log generation is great, it's always a pain to do this. Hopefully the actions API makes it easy to output notes with better organization, like grouping conventional commits. One more thing I'd love is a timeline e

Some thing I've encountered in practically every project in the last 10 years is a large number of calculated attributes that have to be in code or in triggers. I know MySQL and PostgreSQL both have generated/virtual columns but t

Being dismissive of the UX of Linux isn't going to improve the market share of Linux for ex Apple people. I wish Linux was more on par because I don't like where Apple is taking MacOS. It wasn't ten minutes, and there were wa

Recently the hard drive in my Mac became inaccessible to MacOS even after formatting and a lot of other things. Somehow it was able to install Linux though, so I did that while waiting on the new drive to arrive. I tried a number of differe

Also Mint at https://mint-lang.com , which is heavily inspired by Elm (and better, IMO). The open source aspect is also the opposite of Elm - the community is very friendly, the developers are responsive and positive, and PRs are

The Non-Designer's Design Book is the best resource I know of for learning general design guidelines, which apply to what you're asking. I've bought this book for many developers and they've all loved it.

I'm a fan of Rust and use it for side projects, but what in particular about this is better in Rust, other than the compile time checking? Or do you mean that because Rust is safe, you can write it faster?

Isn't that just shifting the tracking to another site? Now nextdns.io knows everything that you're doing.
