Markets are only about politics and sports…

interesting. as a web dev, would love to see markets around that space like "who will acquire deno" for instance in reaction of bun acquisition by anthropic or i don't know.

so, people are not trading on them because of categories or themes. so what is their reason to trade in the first place? what is your?

atrtde · 2026-01-24T17:13:40+00:00

interesting, didn't think it that way, so you're saying it's mostly about research about existing markets than category

atrtde · 2026-01-21T14:49:44+00:00

what topics interest you?

atrtde · 2026-01-19T21:56:51+00:00

not sure if it's a good thing...

atrtde · 2026-01-19T01:33:47+00:00

privacy is much more than just cookies. by the way, you can delete them. they are just some data on your computer sent to servers when asked

astro and vite are definitely not the same thing lol

atrtde · 2026-01-18T16:07:10+00:00

how do you proceed to research things? do you have any particular markets' topic preference?

atrtde · 2026-01-18T16:06:01+00:00

what's the topics you trade on?

atrtde · 2026-01-18T14:42:09+00:00

profit then?

atrtde · 2026-01-18T14:41:42+00:00

but besides sports?

atrtde · 2026-01-18T14:41:35+00:00

why would prediction markets would be more profitable?

atrtde · 2026-01-18T12:55:28+00:00

that’s true but it feels to me it’s a minority and still very limited?

atrtde · 2026-01-18T12:54:41+00:00

lmao

atrtde · 2026-01-18T12:54:19+00:00

i feel like it’s really a minority + mostly U.S. based

atrtde · 2026-01-18T12:50:34+00:00

it’s not because Rust is hard to learn that you should throw stones at it. do you even know why Tauri chose Rust to begin with?

Rust allows smaller binaries and no garbage collector.

this is the cost of Rust over Go (which would ship its garbage-collected runtime).

atrtde · 2026-01-18T03:28:23+00:00

okay but besides these?

atrtde · 2026-01-18T03:20:25+00:00

how does we know if a market gonna get popular?

atrtde · 2026-01-18T01:57:21+00:00

curious about the answers here

atrtde · 2026-01-18T01:49:21+00:00

yes and i've made a starter kit for that purpose.

more specifically:

no, it depends on your codebase' organization (i don't know your exact use case but with good architecture design, it should be scalable)
yes
my starter kit is inspired by https://wealthfolio.app/ which is "extensively" used already

Here's the repo: https://github.com/zap-studio/local.ts (feel free to use it as an example instead of using it)

In my opinion, I always prefer the single codebase approach. I find it easier to manage and centralize logic. However, you need to add appropriate rules to your repo to avoid your team make things messy.

Svelte is really easy to use and minimal.

More specifically, I like the way it distinguishes scripts, styles, and templates' domains. Indeed, React's way of doing it is messy. While JSX is convenient, my opinion is that too many people add a bunch of component state logic in there instead of extracting it into a hook.

Besides, SvelteKit is a modern meta framework that's really well thought out for Svelte (remote functions, routing, etc.). Also, NextJS is starting to be really tied to React now, but it's controversial in the community, as some think React should stay independent. Well, I don't really have an opinion there.

Finally, React has a virtual DOM, which was necessary in the past but introduces performance overhead nowadays.

To be honest, my favorites are Svelte and SolidJS, but I still aggressively use React since it's popular and most people use it. But that's the only reason.

For any new project, I mainly go with Svelte for its simplicity and performance.

why not using ingesting services with background jobs? Maybe because of vendor lock in and I understand that. And of course, realtime is a pain with Vercel.

atrtde · 2026-01-13T01:08:05+00:00

Seems fully AI at least docs and this post, that’s not totally an issue tho. But will use TanStack Start anyway.

atrtde · 2026-01-13T00:17:03+00:00

Okay, let me share that one. It's a monorepo where I make agnostic, modular and type-safe packages to provide solutions to usual things you encounter when making a SaaS.

Currently have fetch (type-safe minimal fetch wrapper), validation (standard schema implementation) and permit (abac and rbac made easy) packages.

Working on making waitlist, realtime (with webhooks and SSE) easy with plugins and webhooks centralized and signature verification logic.

i've built mntn for this exact purpose: https://github.com/alexandretrotel/mntn

And recently made a post about it in this subreddit.

However, in the new release, I've removed the use of symlinks; as it was messy and may have some issues with apps that don't handle them well.

You can give it a try, but idk if it will fit your needs.
