I’ve been watching this YouTube “speed run” by a GM who is a great teacher and have gone from 1000 to 1300 so far. He does a great job explaining some basic theory and giving advice for newcomers. https://m.youtube.com/watch

1Password is great software. I think I've finally switched over to their more all-encompassing extension on Safari and I love it. Glad to see them doing more, I am happy every time I use their software.

I'm all for working to avoid docker in your local development environment if you can swing it. Docker is a beast and if it's way faster to `go run` then do it. But docker is the deployment artifact of our age. Simple go binary? gr
