Hi! Thanks for the kind words! I’m not taking the comments to heart, though I might write a follow-up post explaining why I chose this stack to pre-empt the surprising number of as…

Author (not OP) here. In hindsight, I wish I’d explained “the why” mostly to save so many folks in this thread from making lots of assumptions. The third paragraph in this comment …

Author (not OP) here. It hadn’t really occurred to me to optimize the Dockerfile in this way because of how rarely the build is run in the first place, but I’m absolutely going to …

Author—though not OP—here. I’ll try to broadly address the questions, which are all fair. Broadly speaking, I explicitly wanted to stay in the Coolify world. Coolify is a self-host…

My experimentation largely ended when I got an ErgoDox EZ a few years ago. Ergonomic + ortholinear has been life changing, and it’s hard to go back, even for relatively short burst…

It feels—and I fully understand feelings are fishy—like this has become an extremely common problem. If someone asked me what to use for payments on a new project, I don’t think I’…

That’s pretty cool, thanks for sharing!

I had this exact thought when I first started using Fantastical a bit over a year ago. Would 100% be interested, even for my relatively easy needs.

Ha, amusing read—thanks for the chuckle. I paid for Sublime Text 3 while I was still using it. Even though I switched away (to Vim/Neovim, then Kakoune, then Helix), I don’t regret…

Years ago I was relocating to the Bay Area for personal reasons and asked someone I knew if he had any recruiter recommendations. He didn’t, but he was a YC founder, so he posted m…

I’ve got a few that I think are interesting enough to share. When I was getting divorced a few years ago, I had to wait out the mandatory six month waiting period (aka “cooling off…

In addition to immense personal satisfaction, I’ve found the following benefits to maintaining a website, specifically with a blog: - I conducted two job hunts publicly, and each t…

I recently bought a few AirTags to track our vehicles—two bicycles, a motorcycle, and a car—and have been fairly disappointed. The inability to pair to a family plan (or even just …

That doesn’t account for the loss of goodwill, risky strategy!
