Yeah, I used Bootstrap for a long time, and got used to how it works. I wanted to like Tailwind, but it seems a bit disingenuous. It's like using inline style tags, just with shorter names. From time to time I've made an effort to

Congrats on getting this far, your time tracking tool looks slick and marketable! I also like keeping text with tasks and time-tacking. My approach is to use a vim plugin and markdown files. Keyboard shortcuts let me start a timer, and calc

Highly recommend the "Alternative finger positioning" as mentioned here: https://typingsoft.com/typing.htm . It works with any qwerty keyboard! Simple solution, don't bend you wrists, change your home position

Years ago I wrote some VBA that exports all the VBA in an Excel file. I ran this script manually from time to time so I could add my code to version control. Excel should make it easier to separate the code from the data. For the former you

Funny, couple of years ago I thought someone should create something for JSON similar to what [XSLT]( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSLT ) is for XML. See example here https://www.w3schools.com/xml/x

Doing it the other way around makes more sense, i.e. write SQL to generate code. See https://github.com/kyleconroy/sqlc , why aren't more people following this approach?

Recently switched to VSCode from Jetbrains IDEs on MacBook Air M1, amazed at how much faster my editor boots up, and generally also more responsive. Haven't noticed any memory issues either, I only have 8GB RAM

Lambda because pricing, I don't have to pay the per hour fee if the service is not used every hour/day/etc. By using apex/gateway I can easily move the code to ECS if that becomes the better option.

I've been using the same IDE for the last 10 years because that is what my colleagues use. Over the last decade the UI has changed significantly. Not only that, the keyboard shortcuts also change, and often don't work the same acr

I write Lambda functions in golang. In dev I run the function as local http server. In prod I map a custom domain to the lambda, routing is done internally to the function. API Gateway is only used for the top level route. This workflow is

One thing that really annoys me about the GUI mindset is that developers think it's ok to just change stuff. With CLIs they expect people are using it for automation so changes are done with care. Often when I update my GUI I have to l

> dependencies between containers This is the part I don't understand. I use Docker as a light weight alternative to say VMWare or Virtual Box, just Dockerfiles work well for this use case. The point is to not have dependencies

Docker is not for production (most of the time), it's a dev tool. Ignore docker compose (and swarm and whatever else), because you don't need it. The basic Dockerfile format is simple, it reads like a bash script without logic, ba
