I used to be like that. First of all your situation and context is unique. Everyone has their own circumstances (including aging parents). For many, even perhaps for you this is a reality. However for others its a fear of worst case scenari

This. I took breaks of 3-6 months in-between jobs to explore, learn and grow and it always led me to better opportunities, skill acquisition and moving to a better more stable life. This essay is kind of radical but outlines a few amazing p

I have chats labeled as "Life" (coaching), "Health" (fetching some data on diets, exercise), "Tech" (discussing various code blocks". One very uncomfortable but useful hack is when you feed it context, to

Sorry to be passive aggressive here, but who gets past 10 years old while still thinking that the world and humans operate the same way you do? Just because you didn't face it, doesn't mean there are people who tie their identity

There is probably a reason they did with a ground-up rebuild and partially this is because svelte 4 didn't enable universal reactivity and $ was more confusing than useful. Furthermore <slot /> had limitations in terms of ch

This just shows that life is really transient. Life circumstances change, so we probably shouldn't be dogmatic. Frankly 90% of people probably are not cut out to be entrepreneurs because it requires certain qualities.

Frankly I think I am too dumb for React, which seems more like an enterprise tooling rather than focusing on simplicity and productivity.

For static sites Astro is the way! What do you use for more interactive / app like experiences? Specifically I need to call external APIs to retrieve data, store it, and then call another API to send some of the adjust results in the b

Doesn't Rails have like an insane learning curve? (I might be as well wrong) at at least compared to other frameworks.

I think thats exactly what the question is not though. There are too many un-opinionated answers like this. What if I don't respectfully don't know any stack? (my case). Thats what the initial question was about.

Can I just say, thank you? Some of the answers are exactly what I've been trying to avoid. My only goal is being able to build my own stuff, I don't really care about kubernetes or scaling. I don't anticipate to have 1m activ

How is it compared to Rails? It seems like the world is just divided between server first or JS framework first depending on how much interactivity. In my case i just need some API calling, retrieving data, rendering it on the dashboard (ju

This is driven by incentives though... The same incentives that enable google to exist, then push the same company to be "less good" by prioritizing growth and public market interests. As long as you borrow capital, there is alway

The problem is that substack also solves for distribution. Blogger doesn't but I don't think any VC backed version of this can succeed because ultimately our craving is to have a free space to read quality content and the incentiv
