We have worked with flutter since 2019; having built internal apps for our staff, public apps for our customers, small utility apps etc- this has been our experience as well. Not only flutter has been rock solid, easy and fast to develop, it has a wide array of libraries. Long may it continue.

I'm new to this whole thing. Can u point me on how I don't depend 100% on CF, if its DNS is down? Is there such a service? (kinda like load balancing, but with DNS?)

New UUID Formats 4 years ago

You’re not alone. I’ve been migrating my tables to use uuid instead of integers and have been using uuid whenever I have new tables, unless I have very good reason not to. Experience was my teacher.

Interesting. I’m a rails developer, and to me one of the core strength of rails is active record (altho some might disagree). How would you compare it with rails active record, and which part do you say it’s much better?

Btw, I know this is superfluous and very shallow, but for some reason, I can’t get over the C# syntax because of how enterprisey it is. I much prefer ruby, but I guess it’s a matter of preferences and taste

I used to do complex email validations (like regexes etc), but have avoided using them for a long time. Currently, my email validations are 3 steps:

1. Using the <input type="email">

2. Checking if "@" exists

3. Sending the actual email (which practically speaking - is the actual validation that I needed)

Covers 99.99% of all cases I say.

I have been an avid user for LastPass since I knew password manager was a thing. But, I’ve been hearing about how good 1Password is from lots of sources. Seems like you know and have experience on both sides. Would you mind sharing why 1Password is better (or even have better experience) compared to LastPass? I use it personally and not in an enterprise setting. Your comment might just push me to use 1Password :)

I think we all know that this is true, that online courses have subpar experience compared to physically being in the classrooms especially with younger kids. The question is, how can we make an online classroom experience be as good as it can get and also scales up?
