I’m not as avid a reader as the author, but I can still offer one piece of advice: remembering what you read is important. https://world.hey.com/otar/remembering-what-you-read-8b70cf6...

I had to postpone a call with developers (in 2 different countries) because I didn't had access to the issues board, which is a single source of truth for us. I understand the rapid growth (because of AI agents), but if such critical s

In the ideal world a specification file should be committed to the repository and then linked to the PR/commit. But it slows you down and is no longer a vibe coding? Soon only implementation details will matter. Code can be generated b

Reliability was/is CF's label. It's alarming already. Too many outages in the past months. CF should fix it, or it becomes unacceptable and people will leave the platform. I really hope they will figure things out.

While using mullvad reddit doesn’t block access if you’re signed in. So, login without mullvad, turn it on after that and it should work.

I got so used to GIMP back in my Ubuntu Linux days that I don’t bother installing Photoshop or other image editor on my Mac. Besides, Adobe is an ugly company with shady billing/retention tactics…

That's a good point, but it can also be that the employer is satisfied with the "good enough" results. While it is true that the current high demand on a job market allows many to have "good enough" skills for emplo

Awesome! I love seeing kids play around with code. Curiosity is very important at any age. That’s how I started too. Back in the days of Internet Explorer, I used to click View -> Source and mess around with the HTML in Notepad. I’d chan

> This is why domain knowledge is key. Very true. There’s a huge difference developing in a well known vs. new domain. My mantra is that you have to first be experienced in a domain to be able to craft a good solution. Right now I am pou

Hey! Thanks again! This leads us to another problem: you cannot easily sell niche products on a large market (Georgian wine and amber wine is one), mainstream customers want mainstream wines. So, you are left with several options: 1) Do a m

It's a bit outdated website. Sorry for that :) The 2021 vintage was very good, but the recent ones are even better. Sadly, we only produce experimental wines (new varieties, blends, different techniques) right now. Last year, we made 1

My general advice, not related only to Georgian wines, would be to seek small (boutique) producers in a mid-range ($15-30) category. I can name a few good brands available in the US: Orgo, Baia's Wine, Rosha Winery (one of my favourite

Thank you for your kind words! The problem with wine products being available on the US market is very complex. The main issue is US laws, taxes, and procedures. As a small producer, to make my wines available on the US market, I need to fi

Almost all of them. Only few varieties are hybrid or manually breeded. Out of those 500+ varieties, around 50 are in production. The rest are either very rare to find, are grown in a small quantities or are kept in the vine nurseries as a c
