We use Space due to GitLab's recent pricing changes. We like: - free git hosting - free slack-like with sub-thread - generous CI/CD - built-in issue tracker - built-in wiki - very snappy - h…

So 14kb for 1 file? (Index.html) meaning we should ensure that the supporting assets (css, js, images) are set non-blocking so at least people can see the content first?

So, what is Snowflake? (I assume it's snowflake.com) From Googling it looks like Google's BigQuery. So it's a DB?

Why would I use Supabase instead of Firebase since the latter is more mature and has richer ecosystem? [v] Can host myself [v] Can access from China (since Firebase is blocked) [v] ...anything else? (…

Does anyone know a "for dummies" guide for setting up home network, esp. for "smart" home (CCTV, smart TV, speakers, Google Home)? Not only software-level, but "hardware"…

That makes sense. Thank you!

Help me understand time travel debugging. If the code has side effect and/or depend on external dependencies, how does it work? E.g. A cron that parses CSV, move the file to folder Done, and gene…

Do you have the video explainer in e.g. YouTube? It seems you use a provider that's blocked in my country (Vimeo?).

I'm not familiar with Ghost, is this static site generators like Hugo that provides its own hosting? (So, like Netlify)
