Using git-for-data time travelling with TerminusDB saved the day. Our static website builder gave up building our RSS feed today... Switched GraphQL endpoint to a specific commit, branching, merging, asserting correctness of the metadata. It was too smooth! Wrote a point on it 🚀 🤩 #buildinpublic

Saving the day with git-for-data revision control and GraphQL for content management
I sat down this morning to update our website and one of the plugins we use now had a field that was mandatory and inconsistently applied…

Just published up my honest review. I compare the reMarkable 2 and Paper Pro experiences. They are both eInk paper devices, the Paper Pro with colour. Both are great, but I chose not to upgrade in the end. The felt tip experience of the RM2 is irreplaceable. Hoping for a future felt tip upgrade

Honest review: The reMarkable 2 is better than the Paper Pro
I don’t regret my decision to return my Paper Pro. This is my breakdown of why I returned my Paper Pro within the 100 days.

Yes, those that do solve their challenges using our solution, where they can use declarative logic to solve thorny CRM issues to complement existing CRM tools!

Two approaches, all depends on what you need: I cache quite a lot in my redux state, and for some things I have a custom home-built LRU cache for objects. Remember that cache invalidation is one of the two major CS problems. Do implement specific user-driven cache invalidation patterns early.

Thank you Fillip!!! There is years of research and thinking packed into the post, finally brought it all together into one place. Need to get way better at repurposing content 😆

Sign up for an onboarding session and ping me. I'll ask the team to make sure they forward the onboarding to me so I can join your session or find a common time when I can join! I'll help you with any questions you might have so you get started as quickly as possible!

Absolutely, you can go as crazy as you want. The typing system will help you. You can even make your taxonomy into a graph using multiple is-a relationships for special use cases with property mix-ins. So absolutely, you get all the modelling freedom you want, and I don't say that lightly.

Finally, it's out there. I have procrastinated this blogpost for too long. It shows how to implement taxonomies and master data management using the software I built. This is super hard to build correctly and in a trustworthy way using traditional databases and knowledge graphs. #buildinpublic

I'm so proud! We're hosting a 2 day workshop with 25 people (!) from one of our enterprise customers at our own offices in Lund, Sweden. So much to do and great results from the first day yesterday! So happy for the progress!

The distribution is everything. There is a fine balance when you're finally solving something you've dreamed about for 4 decades, saw a need for in your work during 20 years and finally decided to solve. Describing your own pain, is not necessarily a big market. Pivot to a place with distribution.

It is, we see an information-centric future that rests on composable logic in most of the layers. A big part is to describe the use cases for the platform examples and inviting potential users. We're running a webinar series now, and it's great to see the platform from the users' perspective.

I agree that is when the market is born. But when the thing is made easy to use, the market grows fast. The user interface to it, I can do this myself!

😅 I wish I could. There is so much business development to do and so little time. There are a couple of things to do in the weeks ahead so things might speed up. But counting commits as a business metric is dangerous ;)

Please help? I'm looking for a specific quote on innovation, it might have been cited in Harari's books. Innovation breakthrough often happens when technology gets a user interface, making the innovation available to broader markets. The browser, app store, ChatGPT for NLP/AI. #buildinpublic

PRs is good to get the habit of before you have a team, as it forces you to build the right structures, but don't spend to much on them until they actually enable you. Fine balance. I built the CI/CD early as it helped me move way faster to quality releases and not fear golive with what's new.

For dfrnt.com did it before I had paying users so it didn't matter too much =) And I could live with the consequences 😜

I remember the early days when I decided to completely redo the user interface and make it correctly from what I had hacked together in weeks. Took me months and so much pain. Looking back I'm so happy I did! Kudos!

We're taking snack-bite chunks. I promise to go gentle =D Being a techie, I learned from reviewing old sessions in how I went way too fast in the past. Better explain well and how things actually work. Learning by doing is the best approach. Getting better every day. Looking forward to questions!

We're solidly in the high quality repeatable results camp with useful logic/rules-based old-school AI. It's been way too hard to use prolog and similar logic-based systems in the past. So we make it easy to build a knowledge graph and use a datalog engine (safe subset of prolog) to process it.

Since it's #buildinpublic I'll throw in an extra two weeks on a trial on the knowledge graphs with datalog with my dfrnt.com if you sign up, and I'll even extend the Black Friday discount until friday just for you, beyond the official ending time =) 🚀

Just turned 400 ⭐️ Turned out it was @mzaremski.bsky.social that picked magic spot 400 🚀 Great question, $ or darkmode? And a great follow-up on making it effortlessly. But still, focus on the valuable customer problem to be solved! So good to see you in #buildinpublic Marcin!

💯 No time to dabble with dark mode in the beginning. Make it easy to implement dark mode later though. Make $ on solving an important problem first.

We updated to put deep tech into the human loop into "we provide digital exoskeletons for an information-centric future." Which is much more aligned to what we do and what we want to accomplish!

The kinds of AI to use matters. How AI is used matters more. All stochastic AI have biases, such as ML and LLMs. We don't want competitive AI, that compete with us. You want COMPLEMENTARY AI, that makes us better. With rules-based AI, you have no bias. You use rules. Combine for good outcomes

For the love of god. This is insane, but few understand that this is how most software languages operate when they don't properly understand decimal numbers (IEEE floats and doubles are the base culprit here)... Completely understand your frustration. Fun fact: We did solve for this in dfrnt.com

Wow! 10x the followers over the weekend. The #buildinpublic community moved over in earnest. Seems things are settling down a bit since the weekend. I had 35 followers last week, now I have 333 followers 🚀 Honored, looking forward to contributing. We're launching our next webinar soon!

I can do the bridging between business and technical people when it comes to others, in my consulting capacity. But when I'm the technical person, talking about my craft, I'm at loss, unaware of the shoulders I stand on 😅 But my team are doing the perfect bridging, so I give them lots of power!

I think it moved over here for sure. Such a surge and most of the faces I know I knew from over there are here and active! How is the action over there, havn't checked for a while. Last time I checked it felt dead.
