I don't see how HTMX has anything to do with UX. Could you clarify what you mean?
What is the point of using HTMX if your backend is JavaScript(Hono)?
Can you show me some examples that are hard to implement in Tailwind? I've been using Tailwind for an app with a somewhat complex UI for the past ~2 years, and it works great most of the time. Sometimes it doesn't, but…
I don’t know about Shadcn, but how does Tailaind hampers your ability to do anything?
It could, right? But let me tell you a secret: Apple doesn't want PWAs/web apps and actively limits Safari to force developers to build apps.
Because they are not the same as Go-style green threads/coroutines?
Because you are have an existing app in Python. Because you need some library that is not available in Go. Because you prefer Python. All are valid reasons.
The US did not create a neutral global free market. It created and maintains a US-centered international order that is relatively open for trade when openness aligns with American strategic interests and becomes…
Are we pretending the US/NATO hasn't been interfering with the world's economy for the past decades? Or free trade here means the US being the sheriff of the world, forcing everyone else to use their currency, and…
Your first comment assumed I was "speed-running to a conclusion and squinting too hard", and this was "similar to the weird childish name-calling". I think that is in the same area(or worse) than saying "Amazing how X…

I have used Clojure(JVM), Elixir(so Erlang) and a bit of Golang professionally too. So my opinion "is informed" too for that matter, but this kind of appeal to authority adds nothing to the discussion. > I am not…
The JVM is perfectly capable of Golang-style green threads now. As for Erlang, the creator of Clojure have commented in the past on why he dislikes the Actor model, and I think it is a fair criticism. Sometimes I see…
And who will you hire if everyone decides to do that?
I believe it is more complicated than simply “throwing money at industries”. It seems to me that in China, the Government actually runs the country, while in the US, private capital does.

You are completely ignoring the impact that having billions of dollars at your disposal to spend on keeping users addicted to your platform can have. There is no way a free platform can compete with X/Instagram/TikTok,…
You know IRC isn't just one giant server serving every single user, right? Same for Mastodon. There were/are many different servers. Again, you are arguing against reality. IRCs/Forums have existed for decades, with…
Moving the goalposts much? Of course there aren't any free services serving millions currently, how could they, when Facebook/X spends millions to make sure everyone stays on their platform? Which non tech savvy would…
Don't you realize that those with money are the ones who have the means to build a culture? How do you propose we compete with Jeffrey Epsteins who have a shit-ton of money to spend on pushing whatever narrative they…
There are many Mastodon servers run by ordinary people simply because they want to. And before the shit-show the internet has become, there were many forums and IRC channels, absolutely free, and with 0 ads.
You can still have schema validation at the borders of the application(data in/out) without static typing. I think there are many other factors that come into play when it comes to maintaniblity of large projects. I'd…
It has no Pro version, and I believe their plan is to monetize it through an optional Sync service, which is fair, since it actually costs money to keep it running.
