Curious, why would DHH trigger a mass exodus?

If you ask it to build a headless frontend web app, it immediately starts generating code with Next.js. I’ve always wondered how it was trained to default to that choice, given the…

Why can't this just be on their website? Not everything needs engagement from the masses. Also building online communities is incredibly difficult and resource heavy, seeing that w…

I've been following him also...he is everywhere lol. He mentioned he had a tech job at one point on one of his blog posts.

I absolutely love your blog (and that Jeep). Been reading it since you started your Africa trip! Good luck and keep it up.

I'd highly recommend Asana. Plenty of integration, performant, and the learning curve isn't too steep.

Ads pay my salary. I agree. Someone has to pay for the free content everyone is getting. I will say that we try to created interesting and meaningful ads, not just garbage. We are …

And Reconnect Austin

I used Grunt for a little while until I discovered Gulp. Thought I'd post another option if anyone is interested. Much easier to get up and going. Although it doesn't have as large…

here here. It's just a catch phrase. Sorta like at Subway where they are "sandwich artists". I doubt they go around calling themselves that. Anyhow, as a front end "artisan", Larav…

In many ways, I totally agree with this. It is very dangerous advice to go around and tell people to "work less, live more", or "quit your job, go live life". This isn't a one size…
