my hot take is that - GCP UX is decent - Rarely do you even need devops UI these days. IaC + <agent> + gcloud CLI gets you pretty far
Vercel-like hosting is bad because as your project grows, the price grows exponentially. AWS and Google Cloud have terrible DX and UI. Seems like, the best option is to rent a VPS and install an open-source Vercel alternative (Coolify or Dokploy). blog.logrocket.com/dokploy-v…

UI is here to stay. I know this because i still prefer using FitNotes (fitness app) to track workouts instead of rawdog OpenClaw
User interfaces are increasingly likely a thing of the past?

ticket-as-prompt is the way. - customer request -> into @linear -> assign to @cursor_ai or - customer request -> into @linear -> terminal agent w/linear MCP "help me plan PROD-123" -> update issue description -> collaborate with team -> ship
Blows my mind whenever I remember that some teams still use ticket systems. Why wasn't the ticket a prompt?

database going down so casually for 4+ hours would be catastrophic for us i can't even. i get 'do things that don't scale' but geez, i don't think i could bring myself to put a real product on anything but a Big 3 DB.
💀 talk about bad timing: we just announced our fundraise, but @supabase has been down for 4 hours and all the new users cannot signup

you can AI code as much as you want I do a lot!). But when your site goes down at 2am on a Friday, your CEO is calling *you*, not claude. this will remain true for a long time imo.

Don't even think about not using @carrd for the first iteration of your marketing site.

Done! Careful - you have to give up your GitHub private key, so probably delete it from GitHub first ;)

software engineering is either “you cargo culting dumbass, thats premature optimization, YAGNI” or “trust me, you’re gonna really regret not doing this upfront, look at my scars” and spending your whole life wondering which side you’re currently on
