I can't imagine what error message I'll get (or not get) if I have a typo in that DSL.

Can you expand on "ship less code"? I think I'm agreeing with you but I'm taking it to mean ship smaller pieces of code, not overall LoC.

Yes, many would say that and they'd be correct in saying that.

India for all intents and purposes is now an ethno-national state with no press freedom, severe persecution of minorities, and human rights violations aplenty. I grew up in India when it was a relatively secular state. For example, when the

Author here. Appreciate your perspective. I find large backlogs get stale quickly, and what was important three months ago is often not the case as context has changed. If I have a good ear to the ground I've discovered that there&#x27

I’m not saying add more things and information. I’m saying the opposite - remove things (white space) so I can look at more than three timezones changing (which is my use case as I run a ticketing site with venues around the world).

There’s a lot of dead space. Maybe condense it so more timezones fit on the screen.

No, probably not. I use it for NextJS hosting and I absolutely love the page invalidation. It probably has saved me thousands in server costs.

I have been using Vercel for production NextJS apps and have been very satisfied.

This article didn’t speak about why people are opposed to it. I’m still clueless on that point.

Long lived feature flags are totally fine, they're more like operational flags than anything. The Fowler article is pretty good at classifying them. Depending on the type of flag (longevity/dynamism) the design will vary. https:&

The bigger problem here is that you have QA, not the lack of tooling.

Did it for 10 years for a fairly large site. Biggest mistake ever. The security maintenance alone was a nightmare. Maybe for some hobby projects but not for stuff that needs to stay up, and lets me focus on solving customer problems.

I moved to Substack so that I'm part of a community as well, which I don't always get with a blog (along with the newsletter feature). How do you replicate that (the newsletter bit) as part of a standalone blog easily? To me, star

Totally with you on the value of integration tests. I'm familiar with the trophy and the triangle, but he's saying this: '..with unit tests notably coming in last place – i.e. “only if you have some time”.' The "onl

Thank you. This put me on the path to some research and I got mine setup with Google Drive and mkdocs.
