I just started working full time on my mortgage loan officer SaaS tool again. I had started building it when I worked for a mortgage company in 2017 because I was annoyed at having…

Cloud storage is expensive, I’m willing to bet that’s a lot of money saved at their scale.

Can you explain why you think it’s an awful language? It definitely used to be lacking in features, but the improvements in the recent versions have been great.

If you've been working as a developer for 5 years no one will care about your grades in undergrad, and a Masters in Comp Sci is unlikely to be worth the opportunity cost. I would s…

Without those cpanel hosts I wouldn't be a web developer today. It was so easy for me to start messing around and teaching myself to code using them.

I'll second it as an awesome place to work!

The hassle is because of the implication that is super easy to run a self hosted solution. It's a decently complex task that your average person couldn't come close to doing, and m…

I think he missed the sarcasm tag...

Not every young developer is a student. If Github had offered free private repos a couple of years ago I'd probably be using it instead of Gitlab.

I had a bit of interest on this when I first read about it, but was a bit skeptical then... I wouldn't touch this at all now with no guarantee that the deposits are insured.
