The most I’ve ever charged for a website is $689,032.
I worked on it for 499 hours.
No, I didn’t bill the client $1,380.83/hour (even though that’s what it turned out to be).
I figured out how much I could help them, and then my team and I delivered it.
I walk you through exactly how to do that for your clients in my brand new YouTube video, live now.

Since bun 1.4 rust rewrite is out, I used Fable 5 to port over a portion of one of our live apis and run some benchmarks.
Don't get me wrong I love rails, but it's crazy to see how rust performs next to it. Yes, I know it's not apples to apples comparison since one is compiled but still amazing that one is idling at about 600MBs vs. 6MBs idle and how much more "bang for the buck" you can get with rust. Lower latency, lower boot time, requests per second, etc. 🦀
Couple of notes:
- These are running on a 2X Dyno on Heroku 1GB.
- The peaks are because I was hammering it with python to run benchmarks.
- This API is IO bound so there are lots of Postgres roundtrips.
- I have russian-doll caching on rails but don't have it setup on rust yet.
- This is not a full x-ray scientific experiment, mainly did it for fun.

Trying to make more art just for myself lately. I grew up spending hours drawing Pokémon from memory, so with Pokémon turning 30, it felt like the perfect excuse to reconnect with that part of myself.
Venusaur felt like a good place to start. Lugia or Gengar next?

We're live on @ProductHunt (again). Eventrise is ticketing built for the humans behind events, and we've shipped a lot since launch day. Reserved seat maps, a faster checkout, custom ticket types, and more. Come tell us what you think. #EventTech

Hovercraft is how I always wanted to share my slides. So I made it. It’s a virtual camera for the Mac.
No more disembodied voice. No more “can you see my screen?” Just me, tossing around my windows like it’s 2027.
Dream. Come. True.
I got to collaborate with the legendary Dan Simon of Studio Simon to design the alternate identity for the Columbus Clingstones, the Double-A affiliate of the Atlanta Braves. Meet the Columbus Scrambled Dogs.
ALT A bento box of the new alt-identity the Columbus Scrambled Dogs.

Used Illustrator Turntable and ChatGPT to make these Lottie things in desperate attempt to be relevant. Hoping for 7 likes on the right wing twitter and probably 3 at best on the lefty butterfly one, #design
