Kitze is a nice guy and an entertaining follow. I do think he needs to switch off more, however. He leans into tech in a very emotional way, and is very specific about what he wants. Which are good qualities, but they become bad when you can't switch off.

I think at one point he mentioned he stopped listening to learning podcasts when going for daily walks, and instead let his mind rest and enjoy the walk. If anyone feels like they are becoming their own worst enemy with their projects, then that sort of thinking is a good idea.

Having said that, he's also very successful with his other project. So he's a good follow, if you don't mind the trolling about web development ;)

I find podcasts very relaxing. So relaxing that I often listen to them to fall asleep, especially ones where the presenter has a nice soothing voice. Very important to turn off the auto-play feature, however!

I use podcast/audiobooks exclusively to fall asleep. But indeed, the narrator/presenter needs to have a soothing voice and no intro and outro jingles.

I don't believe this. A solo developer can create a more focused product, with less features, and still do well for themselves. Once you accept VC money you need to do well for the entire company, and the expectation is to be less niche to meet many users. Just talking very generally.

Turkey has recently had a spate of journalists going missing.

That alone might indicate a world of difference to other political systems.

How does this compare to cloudflare workers?

CF always seems so cheap compared to alternatives, if you ever expect to scale beyond the developer plans.
