What I liked the most was the "reverse-playlist search". For instance, if you find a song you like, you can see all the public playlists containing it. I much prefer that to the "let me recommend you songs" approach.

From my memory as a kid.. I remember winamp was amazing. I had many skins and it was all beautifully hooked up in my IRC client. And then, at some points, the UX completely changed. It also started being spammy. Almost like the project was

From someone who hasn't learned/considered Go for any real project so far, would there be any benefits in going Go instead of Rust? Or learning Go instead of Rust? The way I look at it, and I could totally be wrong, is if you go f

Analogy: Like looking at stock prices. As javascript developers, we see all the tiny changes every day and it can feel overwhelming. However, looking at with a long-term view, there are only a few major spikes and it seems to be nicely grow

I'm curious as to how it works to develop on it locally vs a stage server & vs prod? I.e. how to make sure the workflows are synched and are easy to reason about?

Analogy: A bit like your boss. They shouldn't micro-manage your work, but they can fire/replace you if you're not good at it.

Quick shout-out toAptible (Heroku for HIPAA) which have been amazing for our healthcare startup. Still, I honestly feel that we've taken a step back in the industry where we went from ec2 --> heroku --> k8s. But I know there are

Agreed, this is a great resource for developers wanting to improve their design skills. I.e. going from zero to "more-than-good-enough"

People use "boring" in opposition to "hyped" or "trendy", which like you said totally misses the point. I jumped on react right away when it came out, but not because of it being trendy, but because like you sa

I remember when I was a kid I tried for days to install gentoo and it just was not working. After so many hours of banging my head against the wall, I realized the CD was corrupted. Re-burning the iso fixed it

IMHO this "almost open-source" is even better because otherwise people wouldn't be willing to start companies around their open-source solutions knowing that AWS would just offer a hosted version and screw them over.

>> By hosted, we mean charging customers for the hosted version of the open source product. The risk is that a cloud provider decides to compete with your hosted version. An interesting approach is what cockroachdb did, which basicall

I think the best way to filter/monitor social medias would be to: A) Keep the core platform as open as possible, almost like a protocol (I.e. http doesn't care who says what.) B) Build/invest in community-driven monitoring to

Yeah, please do share. Congrats on the pivot and Satchel looks pretty cool, good luck (Even though I'm not sure I understand the business model, I see a lot of value in the product)

I'm a big PG fan but to be honest, him building viaweb in Lisp is 99% because: "Robert and I both knew Lisp well, and we couldn't see any reason not to trust our instincts and go with Lisp.", and not because of a competi

That bit was interesting: >> Manually convert a list of ~100 commonly edited files from Coffeescript to TypeScript. Seems obvious, but outlining it as a critical step probably helped in many ways.

I guess the idea is that once you try doordash, you'll want to stay there because you have more choices and better product. Doordash can control the whole experience as well as send you emails, push notifications, etc. to bring you bac
