@joaolucas_nm This is such a good point. Reminds me a bit of the old adage that first time founders focus first on product while second time founders focus first on distribution.

@kysely_ can you help me get some attention to this?

[Fernando Hurtado @fernandohur]

Hi @vercel apparently the https://t.co/KuDcCXa3Zf and https://t.co/GH0buQwWH4 sites (both hosted on vercel) are inaccessible from Nigeria, asking around it seems you had a similar issue in the past with https://t.co/FKEXnkZPkn, could you check if something similar is happening?

@joaolucas_nm Nothing has been more effective for me than 30-45m with a barbell.

@hadamcik @RyanEls4 Ever heard of Figma? Photoshop? After Effects? Most video games?

There are lots of products where the frontend is the main driver of value, my friend.

@dzhng What did you use for voice to code? Is there some kind of Cursor plugin?

[Fernando Hurtado @fernandohur]

@TheWorstFounder How do you think WunderGraph would look? What will it's product look like at that scale? and who do you think will be the customers to support that ARR?

[Fernando Hurtado @fernandohur]

@max_sixty @prql_lang Looks like it's working again, I just got into the discord server, thx!

[Fernando Hurtado @fernandohur]

Hi @prql_lang, your discord link at the bottom of https://t.co/GQABdiiypu is broken, can you fix (and invite me)?

What a great project btw :)

[Fernando Hurtado @fernandohur]

@samokhvalov @PostgreSQL What makes you so sure? Care to expand on your point of view.

[Fernando Hurtado @fernandohur]

@MarcJSchmidt That's fascinating. Where can I learn more about this? ideally in the context of PG

Love your work on Deepkit btw, great stuff!

[Fernando Hurtado @fernandohur]

@e1g @TheWorstFounder Interesting. Can you explain why?

[Fernando Hurtado @fernandohur]

@TheWorstFounder What are the top graphql problems? Do you happen to have a list?
