Just to give a tip. It doesn’t unblock any feature :)

Open Source Collective takes 10% of incoming funds as fiscal host. Worth it to me: donations no longer land in my personal account, and the ledger is public, so nobody has to take my word for where the money goes.
The web hosting costs basically nothing. Most of the cost comes from the database.
It is a Next.js application, calling OpenAI’s API using a plain API route.

It doesn’t look like an urgent feature to implement, but it’s on the plan ;)
You become a good software engineer despite having strong opinions.
I’m a bit disappointed in the article. With the title I expected to read something about development that is not web (system, embedded…), and it made me curious. Sadly it isn’t; the author is criticizing an ecosystem they left a while ago, and regret not to be able to keep up with it. Pretty normal, isn’t it?
It’s very easy not to be able to keep up with something you’re not a part of anymore. We shouldn’t expect things to stay the same forever. It’s okay to take a step back and reflect on how things are (yes, maybe web dev becomes too complicated in certain ways), but it’s hard to judge when you’re completely out of it (the author stopped web development “in 2009”).
It seems to be an example website, but with my payment information… Could someone have made this website just to get payments from people thinking it’s a legit example page from Stripe?
- If it is free, does that make me the product? How will you make money?
- How do you prevent the problems that Flurly had, which led to Stripe closing their account?
I would even add a “I’m feeling lucky” button, to redirect to a random blog ;)
I mostly post about frontend development: React, Next.js, TypeScript…
