answers&questions
this page is a permalink to the following question:
- i want more time to work on personal music video projects. bun is a very intense commitment with long hours. it is fufilling to solve huge problems but draining to spend all my time doing it.
- what if the build command actually worked, and the internal tooling did not drag the developers behind.
- too much ai chatter. so many examples of it failing to work. ill prove it by showing the most recent ai-generated pull request. yep, it's failing.
i will admit that my feedback on the above items were not very loud, but there has been no attempts to correct this vision. i am not confident in this direction, so i knew i had to leave. the company did not want me to, and offered anything. but i needed something new.
my new job started today (i am answering this late on june 2nd because i was cuddling a girl on june 1st; pride ftw) and it is much more refreshing because in addition to the above points not being present, i have a beautiful new commute where i can spend some of my time on personal things during the train rides.
slowly, i am working on porting my code to node.js using my old laptop as the development environment, and that process has been very cozy. the new changes there won't be visible outwards facing, though i may publish the source code when it's done. i am very proud of how simple it is. a bit sad that i wrote the entire HMR dev server and haven't actually had a use for it, since I've had a mindset shift on how most websites should be built. The released version of DevServer is SPA-only, but the full version is geared to do client+server, and allow for easy to make mini-frameworks out of it. but when you want to make a personal web site, such as paperclover.net, every single modern web framework is the wrong paradigm at a fundamental level. it ends up easier just writing a for loop over your pages folder, and writing some functions to create the HTML.
