aciswhat··on Godot's 2D engine gets several improvements for upcoming 4.0
The fact that Godot's own UI is made in Godot blows my mind.
aciswhat··on The Economic Impacts of Covid-19
The two shockers to me were:

> State-ordered reopenings of economies had small impacts on spending and employment.

and

> Stimulus payments to low-income households increased consumer spending sharply, but little of this increased spending flowed to businesses most affected by the COVID-19 shock, dampening its impacts on employment. Paycheck Protection Program loans increased employment at small businesses by only 2%, implying a cost of $377,000 per job saved.

I think it's likely they'll add new types of exercises as this starts to happen.
aciswhat··on Chakra UI v1 Released – Build accessible React apps with speed
This is awesome! It's clearly inspired by ThemeUI [1] but seems a lot more active and great to see the focus on accessiblity as well.

One thing I like about Tailwind is that the autocomplete in Tailwind's VSCode extension really helps to learn the classnames.

aciswhat··on Show HN: Spaceboard – Pinterest for Markdown Notes
Yep, this is on the short list of my todos at the bottom of the README. Unfortunately, this would seem to conflict with the whole local browser storage setup currently ...
aciswhat··on Show HN: Spaceboard – Pinterest for Markdown Notes
Hello HN! This is something I made for personal use, but thought others might find it useful. It's pretty much just a board that you can add random notes to, which can be formatted in Markdown or just plaintext. You can also drag around and rearrange notes, which will auto-tile to not have overlaps. If you have feature requests/ideas, please feel free to create an issue or PR :)

The demo is here: https://spaceboard.vercel.app/

aciswhat··on Show HN: Auto generate REST API from Mongoose schemas

aciswhat··on Show HN: Auto generate REST API from Mongoose schemas
Hello Hacker News! This is something I quickly prototyped yesterday to automatically generate a REST API from existing Mongoose schemas. It's incredibly useful for mocking your exact backend, or just spinning up an MVP backend.

Authentication is also built in (currently only supports email/password, but more in the works). I implemented granular permissions for API routes that can be set via configuration really easily, which uses JWTs from the user login.
