I’d say it’s likely the same in Germany. Just depends on the circumstances.

Then maybe don’t make such a list. lol.

Not sure what those apps are. S Tier both kinda look like Memmy? (It’s the only one I know).

I’m using iCloud for syncing. Works on my iPhone, Mac and Windows PC.

That’s interesting. Might really be interesting for PHP developers that work on their own. But otherwise I don’t think Laravel is anything another Framework should aspire to be like. It’s one of the more annoying ones I yet had the pleasure to work with. A lot of anti patterns that make it a no go for really large projects.

Nice to hack away something small though.

The US is a weird place. Feels like such a modern country but then they use technology from the last century and no one seems to question that …

Yeah. That’s my experience as well. I will also ask people to stop sending me SMS. The last time that happens was probably over 10 years ago though. Everyone I ever met (except for US folks) uses messengers nowadays. I mean even a lot of US folks use iMessage instead of SMS. Even though that’s weird as well. Since I would expect folks to use some universal app that isn’t restricted to a specific phone brand.

I think that might be a narrow view though. Most of the world likely doesn’t use SMS anymore (for probably a decade). So removing SMS didn’t make much of a difference there, but increased security. Especially when people are used to use multiple apps anyways.

So the better analogy would be “imagine if gopher and http needed separate browsers”. Except they do.

Still fascinates me how many folks in the US use SMS. It’s been dead for over a decade now over here. I mean I would have expected it to stay with a lot of folks using feature phones. But that also not the case as far as I know.

Scaling monoliths still works fine though. Microservices are first and foremost an answer to an organizational problem, not a technical one. There is a very high chance that if you are doing microservices with less than 20 people, or let’s say even 50 people, you are doing it wrong.

Microservices introduce a ton of overhead in engineering effort required, which needs to be balanced with the benefit they provide.

Scaling shouldn’t be the first and only reason for doing microservices.

It’s weird how different these feeds are. I only have posts about people asking about these beans posts. But no beans posts themselves whatsoever.

It feels like a mix of Squad with Call of Duty tbh. at least based on how it’s played on public servers. It’s noticeable that it’s squad inspired, but at the same time it’s more played like a fast round of call of duty. Which is a super weird mix.
