@skriptble.me you mentioned that you've become less of a fan of Postgres and are leaning more towards MySQL…but what are your thoughts about SQLite? With each passing year it seems more and more able to handle larger-than-just-hobby-projects (assuming it's not a distributed system of course!)

I saw a bunch of hype about JJ a while ago but things seemed to have died down. Great episode and I think I'll have another look at it and see how it works!

Listening to the episode and there was a brief discussion about licenses. I’d love to hear an entire episode about the various license types and what to use when!

Thanks for another great episode! 😄

Personally I’d love to hear a dedicated episode on hypermedia and how it could relate to APIs and versioning (see how I bright it all together? lol).

Keep up the good work!

Another banger of an episode! Learned a LOT about versioning in general ABs SemVer in particular. And now I need to read the SemVer spec to see what I’m doing wrong lol!

Also, speaking of query param, I remember an episode from, like, last year you said that variable URLs are not exactly ReSTful. So wouldn't having the resource ID as query param be more ReSTful than `/resource/:id`? Mirroring something you said about pretty URLs being for people and not the machine

Follow-up question, WRT "being pedantically wrong about using HTTP verbs": can't we just use GET and POST for pretty much all API calls? If you want to query a resource you GET and any mutations is POST with a query param of the action being done.

Honestly I’ve learned a lot from you over the years. And by “you” and mean “you and the other hosts of GoTime/Fallthrough”. I’m a hobby dev so I’ve never worked on a team before but listening to y’all’s episodes feels like hanging at the water cooler

Thank you for there explanation! Love what y’all do and love your “hot takes” specifically.

Great episode! But still a bit confused on the self-descriptive message part. How does XML make for better ReST self-describing messages than JSON?

It sounds like the recipe sites! 800 words of background on why this or that. Like, dude, gimme the recipe! I don't need to know the background. You're not writing a novel! lol

Instead of fixing what's broke they opted to lash out? Seriously? That's wack.

Audiobooks should be available at your local library (I use the Libby app for that)

The Codex Alera, by Jim Butcher. He was dared to make a book series from two random themes and he accepted. Was given “Pokémon + Lost Roman Legion. Made a 6-book epic.

One of my favorite all-time stories!
