Prioritizing developer experience is not the reason we use front-end frameworks. People expect the web to work like a desktop app (no page reloads). The initial request might take a little bit longer, but in the end a well written front-end app will feel faster.

The problem is that people don't worry about bundle size and cram every library off of npm into their website.

Dams are usually bad too.

Not 100% sure how this works, but dam and river usually means environmental consequences.

Oh I feel silly now. I guess I'll go back to drinking from the tap.

Seeing some comments claiming that families can be financially devastated by a dead car is awful. We shouldn't need to own a car. There should be equitable transportation options to get around..

No boiling, but I bought a filter after listening to a story about PFAS.

Glad I didn't have to scroll to see Aphex Twin mentioned. 🙂

Try out Godot. It uses a really simple language (gdscript), has excellent learning material, and you can make games!

Depends if you want a managed service or not. As stated by others, any Linux vm can do it: Aws ec2, Azure, Digital ocean, etc. Cost won't spiral because you pay a fixed fee for the vm you choose (can be like 5 dollars a month).

The options that can spiral if for some reason your app started being used a lot. But likely these will be pretty much free:

A lot of cloud platforms have some sort of managed container service. Wrap your app in a docker container and pay per 10K API calls for example.

Another option is to use a managed service that handles the runtime for you (AWS Lambda, Google cloud app engine, etc.) These options should have the option for a dotnet core runtime. They can also be really cheap if your app isn't used much.

On Android (maybe iOS)? You can hold down on the space key and drag left and right to move the text cursor. Very useful.

Music for Nine Postcards. Ambient / minimalist music inspired by "the movements of clouds, the shade of a tree in summertime, the sound of rain, the snow in a town." It's a cozy little record 🙂
