Simple tech stacks are great for resilient and maintainable systems. Why reach for #Valkey / #Redis when you can avoid introducing another dependency by implementing caching with #SQLite triggers?
This was a fun #WebDev experiment and made me even more impressed with how capable this database is for mid-sized websites and apps.
What's your favourite example of #Minimalist #Tech?

Just updated my #localfirst Lifewheel #app based on some #UX feedback, and I'm really happy with how it turned out! #Svelte 5 greatly simplified the #DX and hopefully made this #foss codebase easier to maintain too.

I’ve had multiple independent conversations with friends in the tech industry that all boil down to feeling torn between wanting to do something that makes the world better and needing a job that supports our families. I know I’m in that place.
There is a lot of tech talent out there looking for a good mission.
@hal_pomeranz@infosec.exchange I've really enjoyed my time since I started a #tech #cooperative together with some friends in 2022! I've found this to be a great way to work on projects with a positive impact, while supporting each other and extending our network of clients and partners. A consulting #coop is a scalable way to empower others to do meaningful work 🌱

I really enjoyed the visual examples in this talk by @simonswiss@hachyderm.io!
I have a similar experience with Tailwind CSS making it so much easier to collaborate closely with designers and developers - especially during the crucial prototyping stage. In small teams, this saves a lot of time compared to first designing, iterating and then implementing.

Choose one: #Democracy or #MassSurveillance
#ChatControl and similar proposals are fundamentally incompatible with a democratic #EU.
However, they are perfect for actors who want an authoritarian EU with mandatory age restrictions (ID verification) just to participate in democratic discourse.

By connecting the age verification (and the ID) to browsing habits and communication, it would also allow registration of the political opinions of every citizen. From there, it's all downhill until we have a new Gestapo.
Resist in every way you can. Before it's too late.
