I really love SQLite as a technology. My apps don’t require much data so it’s always been my main choice.

I would love to use my oculus more often but VR sickness is too real. I actually get nauseous whenever I even think about my oculus. It effects me so bad that the moment I put it on I feel sick and the sick feeling lingers for sometimes the next day.

Few years ago it was the great resignation. Now it’s the great layoffs.

Oh wow. That’s a no from me dawg.

I would pick the one that you would have the easiest time completing. That’s how I make my decisions: the one with the highest chance of execution and follow through.

This election cycle is going to be crazy with all of the AI technologies at hand. At the same time I feel like we are going to get better at recognizing AI generated content as it already isn’t all that difficult. We’ll adapt.

I had a history teacher who told the most captivating historical stories. I almost want to reach out to him and ask how he learned to be such a great storyteller. Something to work on for myself I think.

That was fast. Wondering what the pace of work is like at Palantir to have shipped this so quickly.

I actually really like this. As long as you’re enjoying yourself I think that’s fine. And when you do (if you ever) feel the incoming burnout you can simply stop.

I feel like coding is the perfect thing to get addicted to because there’s a material result at the end. Unlike reading books or dining out with coding there’s a public record of all that you’ve done, plus it’s useful to the world, plus it’s a self promotion tool to show that you’re a capable programmer.

Inspires me to make my own as well. Thanks for sharing!

Svelte SaaS starter kit looks very interesting, I’ll be keeping an eye out

How about even replacing MySQL with SQLite?

I agree that JavaScript got much better but I still feel like updating the DOM by hand is still too cumbersome to forego using a library or a framework.

Whenever I write an app with just regular JavaScript I find that I always end up creating an immature library for DOM manipulation.

In general if you join a large company there are endless different types of projects. I would look for a project/team within your org that does what you are looking for.

This is awesome! I too would like to one day build a 3D game myself.

I personally just use my calendar + Notes app + reminder app on my iPhone and that’s been more than enough for me.

In some ways I feel like the trust between tech workers and companies started to break down when engineers for the past few years have been jumping ship every year or so to maximize TC.
