So put Supabase on a $5 box or build out your own replacement backend if your time is that cheap.

What's even the point of using drizzle with supabase? Isn't the entire point of supabase PostgREST and convenience tooling around it?

> just a few thousand users was $70 last month. Few Thousand!?! Sound very reasonable to me. Monetize just two of those users at $35 per month and your server costs are covered. Or run it yourself, there's a lot of moving parts but

None of these are expensive if they help you ship products that solve problems that customers are willing to pay for.

Learning sight reading is the most natural on piano like instruments. The notes are literally arranged in the same order. Stringed instruments are much more difficult to learn sight reading from scratch on.

Yes, it’s been very frustrating because there’s things (songs, techniques) that are beyond my reach at the moment due to large gaps.

Well, you can’t just vibe code something useful into existence despite all the marketing. You have to be very intentional about which libraries it can use, code style etc. Make sure it has the proper specifications and context. And review t

You’ve got it backwards: the future therapy patients are kids who are not taught discipline and persistence. Those who aren’t struggle as adults as the real world is harsh on vibe based living. Also, all those “useless facts” eventually bui

Except they are now, wealthy Chinese are one of the most rapidly growing segment of tourists. Wanna guess what the wealthy successful ones learned as kids? That’s right: piano and math.

Doesn’t seem to be an issue for Asian families or ones coming the from former Soviet block as well as Jewish ones. These groups as adults tend to outperform others. There’s a reason for that: early childhood discipline and consistency being

Insane you’re getting downvoted, this 100% and then some. There’s a clear difference in outcomes between kids taught self-discipline and those who are raised standard Anglo-American ADHD style once they become adults.

Like I commented in another post, piano gave you the foundation for learning classical guitar (and appreciating that genre of music). Very few guitar players can even recognize note names on a staff. You’re not going to get far with classic

Yeah, but something vital happened: you learned the basics of music theory and how to sight read music - both prerequisites to jazz guitar (and something that most guitarists don’t know). Learning piano is a great way to step into other mus

It’s sad you’re getting downvoted by gatekeepers. It’s absolutely a good thing that more people have access. Maybe not for inflated costal salaries and egos, however.

Oh but they absolutely do. Have you not used any of this llm tooling? It’s insanely good once you learn how to employ it. I no longer need a front end team, for example. It's that good at TypeScript and React. And the design is even be

Do you understand all of the code in the libraries that your applications depend on? Or your coworker for that matter? All of the gate keeping around llm code tools are amusing. But whatever, I’m shipping 10x and making money doing it.

This makes zero sense. Are you considering the machine time or just loading? Also, machines wash 1000 times better than hand ever could, uses less water, and doesn’t dry out your hands.

LiveView is the OG and absolutely smokes those in terms of performance (and DX), but ecosystem is lacking. Anyways, I’d rather use full stack React/Typescript over slow and untyped Rails or Python and their inferior ORMs.

I don't totally trust this DOGE crew and think we should keep a hawks eye on them but the whole "they are cutting waste so they can funnel the money to themselves!" conspiracy theories making the rounds are pretty bizarre...
