I wonder how Peter's views might have changed in the last three months.

I think that's a misconception. It's quite possible that the expected value for most companies over, say 10 years, is overall higher. I obviously have no data, call it a hunch We just don't hear enough about companies growing

It's simplistic, but I think there's two ways you can approach building a product company. Either you focus on creating a great product that customers love. As a consequence, you'll hopefully make some money. Or you focus on

Under the hood, it uses good ol' fork and keeps track of the generated process IDs. It's surprisingly simple. You can check out the relevant source here: https://github.com/rails/solid_queue/blob/mai

I launched something similar a year ago, funnily with an almost identical name. Different tech stack and slightly different features though. Super cool to see more other tools in the space! https://datadeaddrop.com/

Have been using asdf (with Ruby and JS) for years, haven't had a reason to look for something else yet.

I think the evolution of this person's personal server as outlined in the readme is very insightful. Goes from literally no configuration management (just SSH into the box to install your stuff) to Ansible and then to Docker and k8s. Q

Looks nice! I'm on an older phone though and your landing Page murders it. Animations stutter and scrolling is pretty janky. Not sure I'd that's an issue with the components or something else?

Whenever this comes up I'm glad having read "The Age of Surveillance Capitalism". Not an easy read by any means, but it's core hypothesis is spot on IMO: Google (and others) core business is aggregating and processing as

Guess what. Based on the success of your blog, not only are you a leader - you're a _thought_ leader now! Good luck.

Neat idea. Since everything is public, the next step obviously is to add a wall of fame/shame, right?

I'm currently facing the same problem - adding a blog to a Rails app. I thought Sitepress looks interesting, as its supposed to integrate with Rails. Have you given that one a try? https://sitepress.cc/

It's a good idea. My main issue is that if you want to build anything these days it kinda has to look at least decent. All depends on your customers and project, but generally expectations towards UI are high these days. I'm tryin

Mostly ideation and placeholder content. Say I have a rough idea for a logo. I'll hammer something in Midjourney to iterate on ideas.

Honesty I had a blast with Midjourney. Takes some getting used to, and it's not actually that useful (I think) but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't great fun to use.

I adore Syncthing. I agree that it's iffy to set up, but once it works it works.

Interesting that the discussion here focuses so much on the actual language. I think the language is fine, but the thing that really makes me stick with Ruby is the ecosystem and the culture it fosters. The article also makes that point. I

Idempotency is one mathematical concept that's pretty useful for software engineers to understand. Heck, might be more useful than BigO. - Useful to know when you work with APIs (as the article outlines). - Very useful when working wit

Can't wait for the analysis on Orc numbers. Given that their home turf is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire, ash and dust I don't see them fielding the numbers they do. Not much arable land in Mordor, is there?

If anyone was wondering, like me, why it took over ten years to assemble this thing: The video at the end gives you a good idea. I wonder how anyone goes about planning such an enormous effort.

I love products with a bit of personality. There's tons of bookmark managers out there, but how many of those take the magical-mystical angle? I don't have a use for Grimoire - not willing to change my bookmark workflow at this po

I don't play much anymore, but there's basically two games I keep coming back to. Starsector and Stellaris. Both Games get updates every couple of months. Which is perfect, because you get something new every time you pick one of
