The debate around which web framework to use is (often) less important than one might think.
I treat the framework only as a binding layer between the UI and my domains, carefully crafting them to be framework-agnostic.

Sometimes I genuinely don't understand the attitude of people in GitHub issues.
I think we need a mindset shift in Open Source: from 'I use it because it's free' to 'I genuinely care and want to ensure its sustainability.'

My biggest fear was that I would get so much inspiration at the Effect Days that I would become completely sidetracked and want to try all the new things I just learned.
Effect Days just delivered! It was such an amazing conference.

I'm currently in Livorno, Italy, looking forward to meeting some of the brightest engineers at the Effect Days, a breathtaking location, and an influx of enough gelato 🍨 to last me the next three years.

Today I attended my son's first parents' evening at his school. He’s just wrapped up the first half of his initial year and everything seems to be in order. His teacher mentioned that he occasionally struggles with forming some letters of the alphabet. 🧵

Great conversation—I enjoyed every single minute, as many of the moments resonated with me, since I see myself as just one thread too. Prioritize each aspect of your work based on your energy level, and you may discover peace even in such a challenging yet truly fascinating industry.
Had a wonderful chat with Adam Wulf who's behind the inspiring local-first Muse.
We talked about what it takes to build software as a "team of one" and other local-first related topics including analytics and the Apple ecosystem.

Thoughtful Engineering:
We all appreciate elegant abstractions and intuitive APIs, yet there's a common mantra warning against "overthinking" and "over-engineering". However, I believe this perspective is "overly simplistic".

Really excited to kick off the Cause & Effect podcast!
The goal is to share the stories of various companies and projects building production-grade applications with Effect.
I hope you like it - as always, would love to hear your feedback!

After working with LiveStore over the past months, I can't express how excited I am about this release!
The DX is great, the vision is superb, and the sustainable development model behind the project is amazing.
Give it a try; you'll experience a fun ride!

LiveStore is the data layer I wish I had when working on mobile apps: Reactive, fast and fun to use!
After many months of close collaboration with the folks at @expo.dev, I'm very excited to take a big step towards launching @livestore.dev.

In my current project, I established a pattern that turned out to be quite handy:
Encoding the entity type within the ID.
Product IDs get a `pro_` prefix, tenant IDs use `ten_`, and so on.
This allows me to quickly identify the type of the entity just by looking at its ID.

First, we could start with a thin layer that only takes care of the "controller part". This would involve the following aspects:

Want to have a Kubernetes Cluster for 10 € / month that runs your side projects?
I set it up for you and guide you through the whole process. For free. No strings attached.
Might be a little bit unconventional, but I want to share my knowledge and help beginners get an introduction to this area.

I was tired of copying and pasting GitHub Actions workflows from old projects when starting a new project. That is why I built a first version of a central hub for installable workflows: getactions.dev

"This service could run on a 5$ VPS."
While the sentiment is true, what happens when you have actual users and your little server can't handle the workload anymore? Most cloud providers don't support scaling vertically without downtime. That said, you have to be prepared for such a situation. 🧵
