Learning new tech, building stuff.
Documenting the journey. That’s it.

@borkweb @KatieKeithBarn2 so many hours spent on content, community, support and tools.... to go into the trash as well as brand recognition.

Calling WordPress updates “maintenance” is comforting.
And wrong.

Updates change behavior.
Change without certainty = risk.

Windows is just a pile of garbage lately.

My PC Froze 2 time in 5 years.

Lately, it started crashing 2 times a week.

@OwOjesse No. I want to buy an extra drive to install Linux on it so I can have a smooth transition.

Windows bricked my custom-built high-performance PC

Goodbye Windows!

In short, Next.js allows me to deliver solutions that are technically sound and aligned with business priorities—speed, scalability, visibility, and efficiency.

[Adrian Sticea @ASticea]

When choosing a framework, I don’t just think about code. I think about how it impacts the entire development cycle and ultimately the business.

Over time, Next.js has become my preferred choice

Here are a few reasons why:

[Adrian Sticea @ASticea]

👉 Static Site Generation (SSG)
When pages can be pre-built and served instantly, apps feel lightning fast. This means less operational overhead, happier users, and better scalability at lower cost.

[Adrian Sticea @ASticea]

A new framework just dropped.
Clients want it. Devs want it.
But is it ready?

The risks:
• Untested in production
• Weak community/support
• Hidden limitations
• Slower delivery from new workflows

Innovation is great. But sometimes the best choice isn’t the newest

[Adrian Sticea @ASticea]

I hate loading screens — they’re just bad UX.

When I first used React, everything rendered at runtime and it drove me crazy.

Next.js changed that for me. SSR = instant pages, better SEO, smoother experience.

Job interview requirement:
- We need you to take this interview + coding test, all created by AI, but you can't use AI for the coding test.

Not ridiculous at all 😂

Asking Claude to build something simple be like:
Me: Can you make a cheese and ham sandwich?

Claude: Sure. And since I am at it, let me bake you a 10-layer chocolate, vanilla, and gold cake.

Me: Wait, you only baked me the cake that I didn't ask for. Where is my sandwich?😂

Lately, most of Google's products have become the opposite of what they used to be: uncluttered and easy to use.

Today, I say goodbye to Google Chrome!

@natmiletic I did use ZeroBounce. It has 95% accuracy.

Claude Code is like babysitting an ADHD Kid who has a lot of sugar in their system.

Starts doing things you didn't ask for and talks too much!

[Adrian Sticea @ASticea]

If you think your tech stack is making you a better developer, think again.

You are the reason why your app is badly coded, not the tech stack!

Stop being lazy!
