@dmytring I saw some websites hiring devs by hour to teach LLMs

@superteam Looking for co-founders and teammates to join to win the next hackathon!

I'm a software engineer with 6+ years experience, I won multiple hackathon before.

StackOverflow graph of questions asked per month.

Holy shit.

@oscabriel This is the best way
~/git/(username)/(reponame)

I even have an alias to clone repos directly there in correct folder

LLMs one-shooting apps and features actually is a really bad thing.

One-shooting app means there is no:

- No architectural decisions. Just code that exists.
- No security model. Just features that work (until they don't).
- No scalability plan. Just something that runs today.
- No maintenance strategy. Just technical debt at scale.

It's basically trading speed for technical debt at 100x leverage.

The developers winning with AI aren't using it to skip steps. They're using it to do the hard steps faster.

@moinulmoin @charlietlamb @nextjs @EffectTS_ @better_auth @autumnpricing Now I understand why you defend nextjs so much LOL

received swags from Vercel 😁

loved it, soo happyyyy ☺️

Thank you @leeerob @vercel

[Lubab @TheLubab]

@moinulmoin @charlietlamb @nextjs @EffectTS_ @better_auth @autumnpricing Still, nextjs is terrible

[Lubab @TheLubab]

Yeah, Posthog is very powerful. Especially if you have a lot of users and interactions happening.

Its power comes from customization, so you have to create custom events then put them in insights and custom dashboards, based on what you want to track.

I've been using it for 2 years, but still learning.

[Lubab @TheLubab]

@moinulmoin @charlietlamb @nextjs @EffectTS_ @better_auth @autumnpricing too late for that, never going to use nextjs for any serious project

It has become the worst framework out there

So, maybe you should try to get out of your comfort zone and stop using bloatware

[Lubab @TheLubab]

@gosarguy @tan_stack Yes

One of the cool @tan_stack tools is "@tanstack/react-devtools".

It lets you create or install plugins for any dev feature you need.

In my case, I needed a way to generate mock data for heartbeats. Tanstack itself didn't do the heavy lifting, but it made everything much cleaner and more organized.

[Lubab @TheLubab]

@charlietlamb @nextjs @EffectTS_ @better_auth @autumnpricing No, Nextjs has been consistently slow since they introduced the app router across thousands projects and machines and users

It was the most common complaint on github, they improved a lot but it's still bad

@cagrisarigoz thanks for sharing!

building an open source alternative to uptime robot.

what is the one thing you hate most about your current monitoring tool?

let me know 👇

[Lubab @TheLubab]

the stack behind boringstatus (open source uptime monitor) 👇

- bun (to save seconds from dev)
- tanstack/starter (the 'not-slow' nextjs alternative)
- better-auth (best typescript auth library i found)
- postgresdb (nothing comes even close)
- timescaledb (handles millions of heartbeats)
- docker (one command dev/deploy)
- golang service for metrics (fast and simple)

keeping it simple pays off. code is WIP here:

@AdityaShips You are lucky for that price, entry level Macbook costs $1500 in Morocco
