I was a speaker in a local Supabase event just few weeks ago, https://shorturl.at/JwWMk. We had a local event in Abuja, Nigeria. There we promoted their Launch Week 14 series, highlighting new features from Supabase. In reality, it became an event to show people how to bootstrap a quick backend for their SME business in a weekend.
The disintegration 'VFX scene' in Avengers: Infinity War cost about $1.5 million and took ~6 months to complete. But today, you can recreate that same disintegration effect in minutes—for just $9—using Higgsfield AI.
As soon as you mentioned that you moved to FF, I was expecting you to say that the problem was solved. I've been using it for many years now, it is so smooth that I just take it for granted now.

Sometimes you just wanna get stuff out there, other times you're winning and you wanna give users the best experience. Many people have had to do both. You start with an ORM, eventually your queries are slow and all, you gradually reap them out. Almost every Engineer I know has had to do that at some POINT. Nonetheless, I am not about writing SQL for a simple barbing saloon booking app that I am not sure anybody will eventually use.
Not sure I care about another SM platform but I was very happy to see a snappy site on a Monday morning. A good reminder to put care in my work this week.
During the weekend, I had to fight the urge not to implement a tiny client for interacting with my bank. A company making loads of profit but can't fix their online banking platform. Every page takes not less than a minute to open. No form of caching user details, API calls are made and take same response time not matter how many times you navigate to a screen.
Thanks for making it authentication-free and free of charge.
I had to do a very simple macOS app for my personal consumption recently and XCode dx is nothing to write home about. The only reason I finished the project there was that I couldn't set up vs code quickly for Swift/Cocoa project. I had to endure the slow compilation time, slow reaction time of the IDE UI. You make a change you keep seeing squiggly lines for a while, it's as though the UI is booting up each time. It was a horrible experience coming from IntelliJ and VS Code daily experience.
Computer is 32Gb Apple M1 Pro. Imagine what will happen on some 8Gb i5 macbook.
I could not find your email in your HN bio. I wonder if you have any public "queue " people can send interesting things they are working on and perhaps seek for guidance/opinion.
Edit: found loads of emails here, http://canonical.org/~kragen/about/ :)
I would like to hear from others using, for example, Google Spanner, do you have issues with UUID. I don't for now, most optimizations happen at the Controller level, data transformation can be slow due to validations. Try to keep service logic as straightforward as possible.
