i really really want to use PostgREST on a real-world app, but the authentication it's not there yet for me. even tho i could have a services app (auth, pass reset, billing) and keep the data in a PostgREST instance. but it feels awkward not having a foreign key tied to the user.

damn, my starter frontend it's almost only tanstack at this point. router, query, forms, table.

okay we are back. hard drive got full so i had to clean the cache.

i'll plan to move static files to an S3-like provider.

I’m gonna start writing milestone’s descriptions focused on customers not features.

of course this is an interpretation of my personal experience, YMMV.

a depressive episode is like being a clogged pipe.

nothing goes out, nothing goes in.

you don't want to talk, go out, or do anything. and you have no motivation to either read, eat, etc.

this forms a backlog between the clogged parts, which could suddenly break the pipe.

when the clog is fixed (even temporarily), you feel everything flowing nicely again. you want to talk to your friends, reading brings you joy, and ideas start flowing. productivity comes back.

why banks don’t show available balance in their transaction notifications? 🤔

i've found that the only battle-tested offline-first database solution is pouchdb.

Lots of content vanishing from the internet. I might have to continue with my homelab project after all.

Lots of great newsletter content lately. I’ve been reading more of those lately.

Maybe for the limited ads you see there and the concise amount of content authors put in there.

Since there’s not a lot of SEO influence in that medium (even tho most have a public website version of them) the element of surprise (what might come next) helps to enjoy content you are not actively looking for.

this is what i meant about 80% planning 20% implementation

There are many out there but only a few have had so many love, tears and care put into the work.

Or that’s what I think at least 🤔

Very close to finally release a usable version of a piece of software I’ve been working on for four years.

Nothing fancy, a CRUD app that outputs a preconfigured workflow for double entry accounting so you can manage your budget.

A budgeting app.

today was stressful but productive

Any newsletter provider that doesn't add a thousand trackers to the emails and signup forms?

the big downside of using passwordless login is that you depend on the service that delivers the email to login.

right now i can't login to linear because i can't get the login code.

when i retry, i get the past invalid code instead of the new one.

i'm stuck and unable to see my issues.
