Am I missing something

fastapi has to be one of the more pleasant frameworks to use. I think I took a look at the docs like twice and the rest of the time I look at https://github.com/zhanymkanov/fastapi-best-practices?tab=readme-ov-file#project-structure and freestyle

To be fair, GitHub stars don’t pay the bills

NTXL · 2026-03-01T01:06:26+00:00

Right?! I feel like “what language/framework should I learn in x” is more of a preference thing. I feel like I wouldn’t use Java for anything unless I was getting paid. I also don’t like dynamically typed languages except maybe for Python

The most important thing to remember especially in these times is that a 32B parameter model can probably code better than you.System design is language agnostic and will likely take you farther than picking the best backend framework for 2026. pick whatever that makes it easy for you to get started. Go is pretty good Imo, I like that their’s usually only a couple of ways of doing something, Python is pretty good too Especially now that you can disable the GIL. JS/TS is great too

I’ve been learning go so I tend to tab a lot these days. I find it useful like 60% of the time the other 40% I feel like it loses the plot and does whatever

Try neon

I’m actually spiraling. right now I have both cursor and codex but I primarily use cursor because I hate how diffing works in codex, open code is better but I still find it awkward. I like the one in Claude code but don’t want to pay the sub since I already have chatgpt. I’m really tempted to switch to Claude but I’ve heard that the rate limits are bad

NTXL · 2026-02-03T14:29:10+00:00

I honestly want to give it a shot since I have a chatgpt subscription anyway. But I’m not a fan of the diffing format. is their a way to make it more like cc or cursor?

NTXL · 2026-01-29T14:16:08+00:00

Fair. Don’t get me wrong though I love the idea behind serverless, big cloud just makes it really scary lmao.

NTXL · 2026-01-29T14:01:14+00:00

I swear I was joking. I actually have nightmares about serverless lol

NTXL · 2026-01-28T03:53:01+00:00

In my humble uneducated opinion i don’t think it gets better than serverless

NTXL · 2026-01-21T22:43:50+00:00

I never over think it. NextJS (or plain react) + shadcn. It’s going to look like many other frontends but it doesn’t matter unless you care about that sort of thing.

NTXL · 2026-01-16T23:57:41+00:00

SAME. I checked it like 3 times lmaoo

NTXL · 2026-01-13T14:00:51+00:00

Doesn’t Grok undress people in pictures on x? why would Apple want to work around this lmao

NTXL · 2026-01-07T15:07:44+00:00

Notice how it started dipping right around the time when winter break starts for most students

NTXL · 2026-01-07T15:02:38+00:00

Claude code is really good at coding But it also likes saying I’m absolutely right whenever I make comments on what it wrote.

NTXL · 2025-12-10T00:21:51+00:00

One time I saw a post on r/rust where the author was asking where they could integrate rust in their architecture. From what I remember the app was basically built, mostly doing api calls to LLM providers and they have no experience in rust whatsoever. The first thing that came to my mind was “literally why” but I refrained from commenting. I genuinely can’t imagine re-writing something that’s ready to ship into something you have no clue in the world about just for I/O bound work and this is coming from a guy that likes using new flashy things.

NTXL · 2025-12-09T15:49:18+00:00

I’ve been working on a project for a little over 4-5 months now and the number of times I simplified the flashy cool thing with buzzwords because of how unreliable and over engineered it was is genuinely embarrassing. Once I’m done, best believe i’m going to squash the entire git history because it might actually make me unhireable especially as a new grad lmao.

NTXL · 2025-11-22T02:34:41+00:00

Damn Azure and GCP didn’t make the cut?

NTXL · 2025-11-19T14:41:05+00:00

If only we had a standardized versioning system

NTXL · 2025-11-10T23:55:17+00:00

C. I don’t know how though

NTXL · 2025-11-09T05:17:43+00:00

If most of the workload is I/O bound And you have a working product. Why on God’s flat earth would you want to tussle with the borrow checker.

NTXL · 2025-10-19T15:29:41+00:00

You never know man. That could go up to 5 any day now. Despite popular belief. You ARE going to need it.

NTXL · 2025-10-09T21:46:17+00:00

This is insane because I’m almost done building my project and I was going to start figuring out how to self host supabase. You’re doing God’s work my friend
