How good is being a full-stacker? You can make anything you want!!!
I’ve been rewriting one of my home-cooked SvelteKit apps with Go and DataStar. Had to wrap my head around the paradigm shift (I’ve never tried HTMX) and deepen my understanding of Go templates… but now that’s done, I’m loving the simplicity of this stack!! I think it will be my go-to for future personal web apps.
Shouts to the YNAB team for making some top quality web software. I've been using the site for 8 years, have not run in to anything buggy or broken even once. I can do everything with the keyboard! And they blessedly haven't added any bullshit AI "features". Mad respect. Here are your flowers 💐.
Anybody else compulsively hit ⌘+S no less than 5 times per save?
As a kid I was resentful about being made to learn classical piano while other kids got to play pop songs. Now I’m like why would I want to play pop when Beethoven is lit.
When I go back to a dynamically typed language (Ruby) after working in a statically typed language (Go) I wonder how I even built anything with this thing. Golang has ruined dynamically typed languages for me.
(except for JavaScript of course… my ride or die.)
I think this might make me officially old and crotchety but I think iOS/iPadOS 26 looks terrible and I hate it 👵🏻😭
