It's amazing how many problems in software development have already been solved. Maybe the trick to getting good is taking the time to learn about them.

fellow fsharp devs, what settings do you put in fantomas to stop unecessary line breaks, or do you prefer code to be spread out?

do you ever just feel bummed when you work hard to get your code compiling, and tests passing, just for there to be a bunch of rumtime errors?

why does it seem like bun is more popular among atproto devs than in other communities? should I start using it instead of node and pnpm?

To anyone who uses @astro.build with starlight, how useful would it be to have a plugin that generates a changelog for updated content? I made one for updated pages in my digital garden that renders a colored diff
