I implemented a nice form validation UI and authentication-related features like reset password in RemixJS plus AdonisJS. Quite doable. But now, I've discovered Wasp which includes that and more. I built a sophisticated Open SaaS app in a couple of hours😎 wasp-lang.dev/

The code formatting gestapo, Prettier, while having an inviting name, has to be stopped. It's fine for skilled, no-frills-developers or those wanting guidance, but for poetic developers it crushes nuance. Prettier brazenly boasts limited configuration - their way or the highway.

Tech stack update: RemixJS plus AdonisJS with styling via a small css file — avoiding css-in-js etc for now due to react-server-component etc issues. Adonis, a pleasant discovery, seems good so far. Simple authentication now working. Next, password reset, surprisingly fiddly.

Evaluating tech-stack candidates for a web app to assist with a weekly crypto-trading system based on the market’s weekend movement. So far: Remix js, MUI, Drizzle, maybe Wagmi.

After years of using JetBrains products to write code, I let my subscriptions lapse and began using VS Code to follow along in two Solidity Smart Contract courses from @PatrickAlphaC. VS Code seemed nicer than expected, bordering on Integrated Development Environment, IDE.

I discovered those critical code-navigation features have been broken for years in VSCode. How do people suffer VS Code without them? What am I missing? How does one acclimatise to a large codebase? How does one dance gracefully and energetically among source files?

I’ve renewed my @jetbrains subscriptions. Their products are far from perfect but having experienced @code’s surprising blemish, shopped, with little success, for an alternative, all the while remembering JetBrains’ friendly, helpful support team — I’m going home to them.

Contract developers: Get asked to take ‘short’ tests? Find it annoying? Reply, “Sure, I charge a fee for tests”. Beats hemming & hawing.
Sometimes I’d like to see the word ‘gay’ returned to it’s original definition. It was a nice word and we’re left with no exact synonym.
Re-platformed the system which sends affirmations to my Apple Watch - it’s now a Meteor web app. Improves my life one affirmation at a time.
I’ve set up a treadmill desk using a desktop standing-sitting mechanism, a quiet, inexpensifve treadmill, and a white shelf. Life changer.
Cobbled together a system to periodically show a random entrepreneurial affirmation on my Apple Watch until 6pm, then general affirmations.
I thought the Apple Watch was a no go. I now see that it may be useful. I can envision a scenario where I rarely need to get my phone out.
MGTOW, a viable masthead in the resistance against the bullying of vulnerable men by a monster: certain western women + the courts + society
In case The Great Cholesterol Con still has you in its grips, know this: cholesterol is essential - aids in healing & repair. Research it.
I contributed my first project to GitHub: Meteor-React-ES6-AutoBind. Simple, but useful and a basis for tomorrow's more sophisticated one.
