@joaolucas_nm This is such a good point. Reminds me a bit of the old adage that first time founders focus first on product while second time founders focus first on distribution.

Reality is, helping humans at scale isn’t hard if you know what to do. Figuring out which problem to help solve, and what improves lives the most, is actually a harder problem when you have no distribution.

Hi @vercel apparently the kysely.dev and synthql.dev sites (both hosted on vercel) are inaccessible from Nigeria, asking around it seems you had a similar issue in the past with react.dev, could you check if something similar is happening?

"That's Not an Abstraction, That's Just a Layer of Indirection" This resonates with me a lot. Just recently I stepped 10 layers deep to find the code that actually did something. fhur.me/posts/2024/tha…

One thing about software engineering: no matter how experienced you are, there’s always a small chance of shipping something that could seriously break things.

@hadamcik @ryanels Ever heard of Figma? Photoshop? After Effects? Most video games? There are lots of products where the frontend is the main driver of value, my friend.

@dzhng What did you use for voice to code? Is there some kind of Cursor plugin?

Just coded a RAG pipeline in <1hr using only @cursor_ai composer, optimized via Hyde (hypothetical document embeddings) and @cohere reranker, without writing a single line of code. To make it more fun, I did the whole thing while just dictating to my computer with my voice, I basically did no typing. It's insane how far programming has come in a year.

@TheWorstFounder How do you think WunderGraph would look? What will it's product look like at that scale? and who do you think will be the customers to support that ARR?

I have found a very simple question to evaluate an early stage startup: Whatwill this company look like at 100M ARR? Which leads to great follow ups. What customers will it have? ACVs? How will it market? How will it sell? What will the product look like?

the fact that pgvector is not part of the core @PostgreSQL is costing Postgres ecosystem users it's already happening and the problem is growing, I'm 100% sure

@fernandohur raw SQL means here using a general purpose client driver like postgresjs/pg and write your own SQL. for an highly-optimised ORM it can communicate with the db directly in binary using JIT deserializers, which is much faster

ORMs are slow not because of some inherent law of nature, but because authors have not prioritised performance. It could be faster than raw SQL if they wanted to

@TheWorstFounder No, and app-level batching will almost always have higher latency.

Does application layer batching have any significant advantages over just leveraging HTTP2 for web clients?

The biggest problem with the common GraphQL problems is that people don't use the well known and widely accepted solutions to solve them.
