   If this is truly WGS then I'm amazed at how it's only a few hundred dollars to run.

   I really love Retool, but if you're dealing with a ton of data, it'll bog down their UI really quickly. It's quick to get started to build small apps for special circumstances (like moving files around, approving posts, etc.)

   I got laid off a few years ago and I immediately bought a plane ticket to Spain to do the Camino de Santiago for a month. Ended up staying almost 3 months. Of course I was lucky that I was single, in tech, w/ a high(er) salary that all

   hold on, if we have half a dozen web apps that serve different needs, but all share similar "guts" — a monolith doesn't really make sense because App B will have all the code of App A but only use like 10% of it... So if I sp

    why not cross-post blog posts? Running your own blog is trivial, but it's next to impossible to be discovered unless you already have a following

    considering even "real" companies drop the ball (and entire product features and customers) willy nilly (e.g. Twitter API, Brex ...) I don't really trust anyone — always have a backup plan if a service goes away. Same thing w

    Really cool seeing so many others experience Meteor as their web dev "gateway" drug, and cool seeing that others also hit the same stumbling blocks as I did and (somewhat reluctantly) had to learn to distance from Meteor, almost a

    Genuinely curious: do most tech startups / tech-centric companies view "Senior SWEs" as people with similar backgrounds and abilities? Do most skills as a Sr SWE transfer, e.g. from MSFT to Google to Apple to Netflix?

    We've been holding off fundraising, because we were lucky to receive government grants because of our connections with academia, which lets us gather data through clinical trials, funded by millions of dollars in grant money. This chan

    I've thought about using Github and using Github Actions to roll up different people's GH accounts' data into a "central ledger" but yeah, this isn't immutable and Github Actions keeps going down lol. Twitter i

    oh! I'm actually using Matic, and all I'm doing is posting a URL that either points to IPFS or my API endpoint. Yes I know, the API endpoint is silly and mutable and it actually links to my Airtable API lol, but this helps me trac

    I've been using EVM blockchain as an immutable registry / ledger to record small bits of data linked to IPFS to record events. These are supposed to be immutable by me or anyone else (essentially they act like logs and events). Is

    Australia is very much what I imagine the US was like when there was a strong "middle class". Middle class living is fairly attainable here and it's REALLY comfortable. The train/rail/bus system gets you to beaches

    Though grants are smaller here than in the US, they're fairly numerous compared to the # of groups applying for them. We're using grants to get us farther before turning to VCs.

    I was surprised by how terrible NBN is, and how expensive/rare fiber internet is in Sydney. People commonly complain how bad internet access is in the US, but at least the major cities have access to fiber...
