Well I didn’t see this nor was notified but our first paying customer for @QuikTaxUK buzzing with this.

Hot take: most accounting software was designed by accountants, not users.

If your expense tracker has a learning curve, it's 💩

What's your worst bookkeeping headache? 👇

What you’ve earned
What you’ve spent
What you owe

All in one place. Updated in real time.

No surprises. Just control.

Rust's famous borrow checker won't save you from logic errors, race conditions, or bad syscalls.

A detailed audit of a real Rust codebase found bugs that slipped right past the compiler — written by devs who knew what they were doing.

The irony: the safer the language, the more devs trust it. That trust becomes a blind spot.

Worth reading even if you don't write Rust. The patterns are universal. 👇
