It's an app in the Shopify App Store. Regarding OTP I'm still learning, but I am utilizing GenServers and of course passing messages between processes via the actor model which has been very useful. Once you realize that everythin

It was a shift in workflow to no longer use javascript but overall I've really enjoyed it. Generally, when I create an app I use the typical route of react front-end and the backend is the API. To me, this almost feels like writing&#x2

Just out of curiosity, are you leveraging liveview at all? I also use Phoenix for my SaaS project (took me 5 years to hit $2.5k/mo so congrats!) but I went all-in on liveview. It's some solid tech and I'm pretty happy with it

Same, I don’t get up as early as you but it’s the only way to get in consistent time for my side-business.

Well I mean... you can't think a thought before you think it; so of course there would be a prior cause before you became aware of it. How else would it work?

I'm not sure how free will would work, even in theory. If the universe is completely deterministic then of course there isn't freedom of will in that. If it is random, then that still wouldn't be freedom because it would stil

Can you expand on consciousness not being a thing? You mean it doesn't exist at all or it isn't a physical thing?

Just curious, in what way did pomodoro because unsustainable? I don't use it all the time but mostly when I don't feel the "spark" to work. I've tried many things but I've come to the conclusion that I will nev

I completely understand that I happen to have it good because I'm in the tech industry and have been unaffected financially due to the pandemic. However, I'd hardly call myself "wealthy" and it's hardly the year lon

Yeah it sucks, I just think of it as the marketing fee. I have done literally zero marketing other than put my app on their store and it has been selling for 6 years now. As of now, the app pays for the mortgage, car payment and then some s

I tried (am trying at current company) and still don't like it. I completely see the appeal for getting an idea up and running quickly, it absolutely delivers on that. However, I joined a rails company about a year ago and the codebase

I'm not suggesting we should have absolute equality but is system we have in place really merit-based? Last I checked, about a fourth of millionaires inherited their wealth and the vast majority had the opportunity to become wealthy du
