I completely agree. As you stay, it's still not easy, especially in the post-ZIRP economy. Do I deserve to work with a team of interesting people, on a product I can be proud of, on a team that gives me flexible work hours? I sure do

Thanks for this! My current mechanical keyboard is great, but doesn't have an ergonomic layout. I tried a different split mechanical keyboard once and it was way too small for my hands, and didn't have built-in tenting, so it en

Possible, but unlikely today. I think the advice being converged on is not to let the possibility of 100% enjoyment ruin one's actual, real-life situation. Attain it if you can, but don't spend your life rueing its absence.

I've personally worked on "simple" sites that actually had to do a ton of state management for user analytics and lead tracking purposes. (Whether or not all that tracking was necessary is out-of-scope for this comment...)

I'd think average people are seeing more and more ads, not fewer. ie. low-tier subscriptions with ads, google getting really aggressive about ad-blocking, etc.

So essentially, HTMX is not suitable for complex web apps with complex state, but it may be suitable for a simple web page that is only handling simple data. This is also, from what I know, what the creator of HTMX explicitly endorses. The

While in general the argument may hold that life evolved too fast, your numbers are off. 100 million years is just about the minimum estimate for the emergence of life on Earth . If Mars has a longer timeline it should be closer to 1 billi

For sure, but they're talking about CSS modules, where styles are isolated to components at build time. CSS modules are critical in a large web app for those rare styles you can't accomplish with Tailwind, but for the vast major
