Anyone else star repositories on Github as a bookmarking mechanism?!

Just graduated from the STUPI program with a degree in Mathematics!

The lack of native Next.js routing type safety is a major pain point and feels like a glaring omission

Imagine fading the social graph being created by onchain media... and we're just scratching the surface 👀

Hey @bracky, what's the market like? 🏀

The wrong abstraction is worse than no abstraction at all

I'm more convinced every day that the right time to add any custom abstractions in your codebase is *after* you have something that's fully working, not before.

Otherwise, they'll just slow you and your team down.

Perplexity, ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude Code, Grok, Gemini...
