I am feeling old reading the phrase "traditional frameworks" as a reference to SPA/Virtual DOM frameworks all while the actual traditional frameworks like Backbone, jQuery, etc. ac…

I've actually just did exactly that a few weeks ago. I knew what to expect from Rails from my previous experience. Yet, I wasn't prepared for how freaking fast it is to iterate wit…

I am on my N-th attempt of making a side-project, after many years of failed or not-finished ones. Every time I get a motivation to do something, I convince myself that this time i…

I run one blog on Jekyll[0], another on Hugo[1]. I must admit, Hugo somehow feels much more flexible and fast. - [0] https://jekyllrb.com/ - [1] https://gohugo.io/ blog running on …

There used to be a relatively popular post here on HN a few years ago with links to multiple similar blog posts where authors collected list of the best value (in their opinion) th…

What tech stack would you choose for building SaaS side projects as a single developer if these were your priorities: - build it once, deploy and forget for months or years; - addi…

What it says in the title: for a person who has no time to read HN every day, how do you make sure you are not getting rusty and missing out on important improvements in the field?…

Thanks for sharing this! It's been only a few posts so far since I started the blog, but I am actually looking for persons first, and the "coolness" of a setup doesn't really matte…

I really like the "workspace porn" and been frequenting various blogs and communities with workspace setups. It's inspiring and interesting to see how other people organize their w…

Here we come again with the "Ukrainian nationalism" and "coup". So boring. Will you ever update your guide on Russian propaganda? Even the russian troll factory stopped using these…

Hello, Recently I've been thinking about writing a book or recording a video course on building an MVP with Ruby on Rails framework. It would be specifically targeted at non-techni…

Calling it a "Ukraine crisis" omits mentioning Russia and the full-scale invasion of annihilation and genocide it's conducting. Please, consider calling it "Russian invasion of Ukr…

Thank you for elaborating! I still have a question though if you don't mind? Wouldn't a Wordpress or Ghost or anything similar be that GUI? I understand that neither Wordpress or G…
