There is likely some reason why they all look the same and also happen to be some of the best performing companies there are.

Since they have a /pricing page it would seem their business is not to make it easy to self-host but in fact to make people pay for the cloud version instead.

Why are people so hostile towards BSL? Paying/asking money for great products is fine and if the product's source code is in git, the better. Not everything has to be _free_. The m…

audience GitHub is the logical place for an “awesome react” list even if it’s not necessarily intended for that.

Oh my sweet summer children. Feels like the author has perhaps never worked on a complex, big product or with any capable engineering management. The worst and biggest messes in so…

Sounds like a government intervention is needed and the monopoly should be broken down for a better functioning market. However, I guess big tech companies have become part of the …

I’m curious, how does this project compare to slonik that is also a fast, lightweight, full featured, using SQL template literals etc ? Is there any reason to consider switching, f…

Out of curiosity, where do these ratings come from? From the PMs? Or do you have EMs who just listen to the PMs in these things?

I already have a way to unify my messaging across different apps. It's called MacOS and cmd+tab. Sometimes on the road I use something called iOS. Sure it's not the same. But is it…

I've always preferred Docker for setting up databases and database-like services on a development machine because then everything is nicely isolated. i.e no need to worry about ran…

I'm not sure I understand why PostgreSQL would be "overkill" for something? It's very easy to set up and operate, almost anyone in the industry either knows it or they should be wi…

However the schema does look like type schema = { field1: any, field2: any, ... } AFAIK the column types are not really enforced and you can even leave them out. https://stackoverf…

Ugh a dynamically typed SQL database, no thanks. I always find I have to build quite a bit of a "data layer" on top of SQLite for example when using it in mobile apps. Also you hav…

I suppose skillful AI/ML people like to think that great AI/ML is all about their skills and the models they produce. Someone else might think that the true value is in the data, w…
