Re:Ask HN: Did AI make you a worse programmer? on Monday January 06, 2025 @02:27PM (#42614451)
I recently stopped using AI directly in my code editor, and I've felt similarly. However I have noticed I regain the lost syntax knowledge very fast. I think at the end of the day our jobs aren't to memorize syntax, that comes, goes, and changes with the tech we use. Our jobs are rather to have the knowledge needed to engineer software, and AI is just another assistant. I will continue to have it off in my IDE for a few more weeks, but I don't fear the loss of syntax knowledge (to a certain extent)

A web app I built for myself to use over the past few weeks, essentially it allows you to count anything you'd like whether it be personal goals, analytics, etc.

An open-source passion project, it's an alternative to formspree/getform/etc. I've been working on it over the past 4-5 months.

Submit a PR of something you have and love, or if there's something you've been wanting, other devs may want it too!
For sure anyone could just use the hosted option, but it will ultimately be more pricey than someone self-hosting it. If someone will remain in the free tier (under 250 submissions per month) they should just stick to the hosted option, but even still some people like total control over their data, which self-hosting would get them as close as possible to that.

web3forms is great! My pain point with it was incomplete docs, and lack of plugins.
