Hi! Thanks for the kind words! I’m not taking the comments to heart, though I might write a follow-up post explaining why I chose this stack to pre-empt the surprising number of assumptions, and I might keep this in my for other, future pos

Author (not OP) here. In hindsight, I wish I’d explained “the why” mostly to save so many folks in this thread from making lots of assumptions. The third paragraph in this comment touches on that: https://news.ycombinator.com&#x2

Author (not OP) here. It hadn’t really occurred to me to optimize the Dockerfile in this way because of how rarely the build is run in the first place, but I’m absolutely going to do this, since the ratio of code changes to content changes

Author—though not OP—here. I’ll try to broadly address the questions, which are all fair. Broadly speaking, I explicitly wanted to stay in the Coolify world. Coolify is a self-hostable PaaS platform—though I use the Cloud service, as I ment

My experimentation largely ended when I got an ErgoDox EZ a few years ago. Ergonomic + ortholinear has been life changing, and it’s hard to go back, even for relatively short bursts on the built-in laptop keyboard itself. I recently got an

It feels—and I fully understand feelings are fishy—like this has become an extremely common problem. If someone asked me what to use for payments on a new project, I don’t think I’d feel comfortable suggesting Stripe, based solely on what I

I had this exact thought when I first started using Fantastical a bit over a year ago. Would 100% be interested, even for my relatively easy needs.

Ha, amusing read—thanks for the chuckle. I paid for Sublime Text 3 while I was still using it. Even though I switched away (to Vim/Neovim, then Kakoune, then Helix), I don’t regret it at all. It was a fantastic tool I used for about tw

Years ago I was relocating to the Bay Area for personal reasons and asked someone I knew if he had any recruiter recommendations. He didn’t, but he was a YC founder, so he posted my details in a corner of HN reserved for them. I woke up to

I’ve got a few that I think are interesting enough to share. When I was getting divorced a few years ago, I had to wait out the mandatory six month waiting period (aka “cooling off” period). Since I had the actual date the divorce would be

I recently bought a few AirTags to track our vehicles—two bicycles, a motorcycle, and a car—and have been fairly disappointed. The inability to pair to a family plan (or even just multiple individual accounts) makes it useless for anything

I do both. Publicly, I write a blog[0] mostly about random technology things. I don’t think I’ve ever published anything too controversial, but I’m also very privileged and have a tiny audience comprised mostly by people I know. I do this p
