When working on side projects, there are two type of devs:
The devs who spend time designing a system for large scale even though they have 0 users.
The devs who just get something working and ship it knowing they can improve it later when it starts to fall apart.

I won't lie, writing Go is a breathe of fresh air compared to typescript and the js ecosystem. Granted I haven't used it enough to start uncovering the cruft, but so far it's an obvious DX upgrade.

People who deploy their software to bare metal or self managed virtual machines: do you all hate life?
why choose manually managing a machine over using one of many platforms that let you deploy and auto scale with a single click?

I've used lambda and serverless to host my applications for a while now... but I'm having a change of heart.

Why are named parameters not a thing in Go?
When your library requires comments to understand arguments, it kind of sucks. Sure, I could define 7 variables above and pass them in, but like why?

I’m convinced the most important time to have experienced devs on a project is at the start.
After they lay out the ground work and good coding patterns, it’s 100x easier to just mindlessly follow those existing patterns than to try and refactor old bad ones.

Keeping you code DRY has been one of the biggest lies I've encountered in this industry.
Certain things, like removing magic numbers and constants is critical, but I've found once you start abstracting anything larger than a few lines of code, you'll end up hacking in branching

Hot take: anyone should be able to watch you code for 30 minutes to estimate your experience level.

if you don't use typescript, you'll either console logs objects to remember their structure, or you'll open up other functions and inspect the code to know how the arguments must be shaped. I did it for years on a 400k line of code 100% javascript project, and it kind of sucked

No lie, it kind of sucks seeing so much hate towards Vercel and Next. I think they are both great, and I’m not paid to promote either.
Even if you can’t afford their pricing, do yourself a favor and take notes on their attention for good DX, UX, and their drive to make things

why do people ask questions like this:
"I deployed my app, but it doesn't work, any clue what's wrong?"
Do beginners not understand that there are 1000 things that could be wrong about your application, so asking a "help me" question with zero context will get you no where?

In next.js app router, do y'all use a _components directory or do you just put page related components directly in the route directory?
For example, I have a create route and I split up some of the components and just put them co-located in the same directrory.

I used to be a soy dev like you, hating on tailwind because I thought it was stupid, hating on typescript because I thought it slowed me down.

It’s hard to find people serious about working on side projects. Often people are hyped for the first two weeks but then disappear. I’m at the point where I’m tired of building side projects by myself, but I don’t trust anyone to be serious or skilled enough to build with me.

When you send a message on X to someone you've talked to before, don't just send a message that says "hi".
