I normally get really hungry around 3pm. Now that I'm gluten free most snacks suck. So instead I started drinking water. I don't think I was ever hungry. Just dehydrated.

As a kid we had candles in the house that we broke out during power cuts.
Now there is no point. We have so many battery powered devices that have lights on them.

Asp dot net under the hood on the backend and react under the hood on the front end but with a seamless F# experience.

Thoughts please. We have a complex graph structure in the db. I want to log changes. But as things can be deleted in the database I can't use IDs to track what is and what was. So I'm storing it as JSONb. Then I diff the JSON to see if anything changes.
