More political courage, less technology.
I agree with you that dynamic query building can be tedious with a pure SQL approach. The use case you are describing can be solved with something alone the lines of:
WHERE organization = $1
AND ($2 IS NULL OR starts_with(first_name, $2)
AND ($3 IS NULL OR birth_date > $3)
Does that make sense?
You are not alone!
Oh wow, thank you. I didn't know nested CSS was a real thing nowadays.
I have the same feeling performance-wise with the laptop I bought in 2020 with a Ryzen 7 4800H.
But it's a heavy brick with a short battery life compared to the M1/2/3 Mac.
It makes me think of https://moldabledevelopment.com/
You do not code in the visual environment but it helps you to create tools to visualize exactly what you want/need to see. The interactivity is hard to beat and once you are used to it, you can quickly create visualizations that you can throw away (or keep).
I would go full text-mode (Markdown), Keynote or Ludus[1]
It's listed at 3700€ on Coolblue (online shop in The Netherlands).

Beware that there could be some differences that can affect the experience: https://twitter.com/jeremy_soller/status/1322954964549824512
I always thought about it as the "vinyl master" analogy as well but it looks like it has a master/slave origin from the Bitkeeper days.

Depending on which model you are interested in, you might find some European company offering the same chassis (usually Clevo or Tongfang).
For example, the Lemur Pro 14 looks like a Clevo L141CU which is also sold by Schenker (or Tuxedo for a Linux version). You can probably find a brand that retails in your area/country/continent.
Following the progress of the Reform project has been fascinating.
Thanks a lot for making this and sharing frequent updates :)
Following the progress of this project is fascinating.
I don't know how big is the crowd interested in the end goal, the hardware and the software of the Reform. I know for sure that I'm part of that crowd.
Is it installed as a Snap?
From what I understood, only the first start is slow. Once the virtual disk had been decompressed, subsequent launches are much faster.
It's KaiOS[1]. I think their biggest hit was the JioPhone in theIndian market[2] but the phone lineup is quite impressive for an alternative system.
They've got some funding from Google[3] as well.

Regolith [1] is the perfect i3+Ubuntu combo for me.
It comes with sensible default for a good i3 experience but you keep the Ubuntu "universality".
Haiku OS and Gnome have such a different feeling when I use them.
Haiku has this delightful vibe to it, I can't explain.
I might be in the market for an e-bike.
The Cowboy looks a bit better to me with its central motor and removable battery but the Vanmoof looks more comfy. The review doesn't mention anything about that.
Is there any other significant difference between the two bikes? If you bought one of those, which criteria were decisive in your decision?
The announced Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 might tick the right boxes.
You might be interested in Nushell[1]. One of their inspiration is PowerShell.
Benedikt Terhechte (from XING and the Contravariance podcast) has a similar project called AwfulUI[1] to bring some SwiftUI goodness on previous iOS releases. I don't think it's open source at the moment though.

From what I understand, carmakers have average emissions quota across their whole range (95g/km of CO by 2021).
Having electric vehicles in the range is a way to meet the quota even if they don't sell really well.
It's much more than just a volume problem. This article describes it: https://medium.com/@AMP/cant-you-just-turn-up-the-volume-4ec...
That makes me think of the Creaceed indie dev. When they release an app they usually have a short technical description of what they are doing (e.g, image preparation for OCR[1], live collaboration with CRDT and OT[2]).
I guess it's always an exercise to reveal enough to spark interest but not too much to keep the secret sauce.

It probably depends on where you live and the (lack of) appropriate infrastructure.
Wouldn't you be bored with a specialist position in one company? I get bored when doing the same thing for too long. That's usually around the 2 years mark.
I've done a lot of Rails then dived deep into mobile dev (native iOS & Android). I also dealt a bit with embedded and ended up as the bridge between a taiwanese team and a french one. Contractor life can be interesting :p
As you, I sometimes wish I could just stay in one role in a bigger company but I feel like I would not be able to fit in a box for long.
I unexpectedly find it strangely therapeutic to do the dish-washing :)
You're not the only one!
This is some serious OpenBSD artwork. I would love that they reconsider the 'no product' policy. I understand the logistical nightmare of pressed CDs though...
I don't know how adventurous that may be but you can try to run Docker in a Linux VMM ;)
I had this when the F-35 was in the final stage of the aircraft renewals competition for the Belgian Air Component. I let you guess where I live...
I haven't seen a single ads since the decision has been made.
