Some countries charge a road tax or annual vehicle tax, and ev’s are often except as a green incentive

What an incredible read - thanks for the share

Sorry I know you said headless, but have you considered wordpress? Its unsexy, but the ecosystem is really well suited for this and hosting is dirt cheap.

Because its so popular and been around for so long, theres tons of free themes, plugins and videos which will reduce your support burden - plus your admin could get help easily as its not something you rolled.

Other than that, decap on gitlab is easy to run for free, and will provide the admin with a ui for editing content. Astro is also great and stable for this type of thing.

I would caveat with its not affordable to be passionate anymore. The top engineers (mech, chem, civil, etc) I know work in finance or consulting instead of doing things they care about.

Closer to tech, I feel we have had a big influx on non-tech joining the tech workforce and the quality has suffered as a result of a lack of fundamentals and passion

I feel guard clauses/early returns end up shifting developer focus on narrowing the function operation, and not an originally happy path with some after thought about other conditions it could handle.

IME else’s also end up leading to further nesting and evaluating edge cases or variables beyond the immediate scope of happy path (carrying all that context!).

It was for examples of overwhelming forms to your #1.

Apologies for the confusion - that wasn’t clear at all.

Lysine supplements may be something to look into for cold sores. Got a friend who is from SA who doses up on it before and during summer months and she swears by it.

My partner has dyslexia and finds forms overwhelming. Chatbots break this down and (I suspect) give the same feeling of guidance. As for specific examples NHS has some terribly overwhelming forms and processes - image search IAPTUS.

Another example; I was part of a team that created a chatbot which helped navigate internal systems for call centre operators. If a customer called in, we would pick up on keywords and that provided quick links for the operator and pre-fill details like accounts etc. The operator could type questions too which would bring up the relevant docs or links. I did think looking into the UX would’ve been a better time spend and solved more problems as the system was chaos but “client wants”. What we built in the end did work well and reduced onboarding and training by 2 weeks.

Surely CS degrees should suffice, yet we still have leet code testing?

Interested to hear if you have a different thought here
