    Been working on offline apps (Android) for the past couple of years. Syncing is hard. Some takes: - There was never a budget for CRDT's - Conflicts were never our primary focus, in…

    As an indie AND dev, with close to 100k downloads on the app, I dread of making any changes to my app. It's like looking for trouble really. Last couple of times I made smallest ch…

    I've noticed my TikTok feed is full of "Bosnian Serbs want emancipation, war is looming on Western Balkan" type of videos lately. My guess is Russia and China want another war far …

    I really like to use Insomnia (Bruno alike) to import all project API's and debug API's over Insomnia. Does the job much faster for me.

    Terms like "Forever" or "100 year" should be forbidden. https://wordpress.com/support/plan-features/100-year-plan/

    Can't imagine anyone relying on Chinese technology at this day and age. Most of the stuff is copycat of western tech.
