Agreed. "Code was never the hard part" is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Making something work, has always been easier than making something someone can read. AIs also, seem to…

This is the future I want. I will keep fighting for it. But my braveheart pinephone is showing it's age. And I need it to be dependable for pagerduty etc, or else have some other a…

I agree with this article, but it's so much more than just trust in a workflow. It's an API you can trust, in an ocean of change. That's what you're choosing; an api, abi... whatev…

I appreciate the mysql/mariadb comparison.

This is the nerdiest thing I've ever seen, and I absolutely adore it.

This is really smart. It’s low friction. It’s a drag to need two devices, but it is a low compromise bridge to building up something like a pinephone/pinebook’s ecosystem without n…

> I have no idea what I’m doing and still made money from it I feel like this describes most people that start their own business at first. It just usually isn’t a lack of experien…

I would wish that they would also: - Listen to their team. Issues arise, complexity may be higher than appears. Being receptive to reality and not being obstinate. - Manage priorit…

Same! But in my 20s and I switched careers.

This resonates so strongly with me. I worked a job where I needed to use outdated Microsoft toolchains to build plugins for software, and the documentation was just -- gone. Good l…

This is incredible!!! I love it so much, thanks for making this.

So long and thanks for all the shoes!

Good to know, good time to donate if I can. I love apollo
