I use better auth for a side project i'm working on. It's open source, you can pay them to manage your user/auth tables if you want or you can run it all on your own db.

vevoe — Thu, 02 Oct 2025 14:43:52 +0000

Yup yup basically this. Being consistent is great but I'll be pedantic and say the key is actually following up and then also being right.

As far as how to do it confidently? The same way you say "that is a tree" when you're looking at a tree. You're 100% sure you don't know, just say it. The rest is probably in your head. That's been my experience at least.

Is there somewhere I can read more about your setup/experience with your streaming site? I currently run a (legal :) streaming site but have it hosted on AWS and have been exploring moving everything over to a big server. At this point it just seems like more work to move it than to just pay the cloud tax.

I'd love to see that script, do you have a link?

No I feel the same way too. I'm on the max plan and I swear it has good days and bad days.

I'm not saying that Next.js is good or bad but we deploy our Next.js app in a docker container and it's never been an issue. I'm curious what issues you had?

tbf I think that's already been happening for a while now

That makes sense to me. There's another post on the front page right now talking about shortening the work week (I haven't read it yet tbf, so I could be wrong about it's content) because of AI. People have been talking about shorter work weeks for a long time now, it just doesn't happen. What does happen is we get more done and the GDP goes even higher.

vevoe — Wed, 17 Jul 2024 19:41:13 +0000

I also moved away from Notion a while ago for being crazy slow. For personal note taking I use Obsidian, big fan of it.

For my dev team I recently moved us to eraser.io. Still in the early stages with it but it's working well enough for us atm.

New comment by vevoe in "Ant Design – the second most popular React UI framework"

vevoe — Tue, 02 Jul 2024 15:39:00 +0000

I've come across this library a lot but never used it. I did inherit a project that uses chakra-ui though and have very much enjoyed using it. This seems similar, has anyone used both and have a preference for one or the other?

New comment by vevoe in "I created the same app with React and Redux"

vevoe — Tue, 15 Oct 2019 00:18:32 +0000

Have you used redux-sagas on any projects before this one? How do you feel it compares with redux-thunk?

I've used redux-thunk for all of my past projects but recently inherited a project using sagas. It seems to be pretty unorganized and I'm wondering how much effort I should put into cleaning it up, if it's even possible.

Somewhat related, I reached out to a few people on the "Freelancer? Seeking freelancer?" threads and had several responses, one of which I just started on.

I wouldn't be surprised if people had similar luck on all such threads.
