It was a sad, yet beautiful read.
Some of my fav passage from the article.
"Researchers Gilbert, Quiodbach and Wilson coined a term called the “end of history illusion,” which describes people’s tendency to look back on the last ten or twenty years of their life and concede that they’ve changed a great deal. Yet when they’re asked to project how much they’ll change in the next decade, they tend to believe they’ll change much less, if at all, as if all their life was leading up to this moment, in which they’ve achieved peak selfhood"
"Until 2020, I thought Jake and I would live in New York forever. New York is so fun! But, realistically, we stayed too long, our goals and priorities changed, and the cost and struggle of the city stopped outweighing the desire for a kid and to be close to family."
Ive tried Jetbrains Http client in the past; but I felt comfortable with a simple UI like Insomnia
Mostly used Insomnia for a long time, until I came across Bruno. Its been a game changer for me. Requests get saved as plain text files and still provides a great UI to work with
Basically all the benefits of text based files combined with a nice UI.
- choose the tech stack ur team is most comfortable with
- focus on getting PPL to try your product, then revenue, then scale and then microservices - in that order
Going through the nue the tldr I got is "bring back simple html friendly declarative directives (hello AngularJS)"
Nice to see people trying to push boundaries
Nue might not be a great option for building large scale web apps; it however could be a great way to add reactivity to simple websites. We don't need to have the full fledged webpack monstrosity for every little site.
essentially, don't get paralysed on designing the perfect path on how to invest time/energy. just focus on putting in the hours everyday.
