So far programmers have been manual factory workers now quickly being replaced by more efficient and better robots. Like it or not. That’s what’s already happening. Embrace change.
The era of manual software development is coming to a close quickly. My view on software development has drastically changed. I believe in the future the role of engineers will be to build software factories, not the software itself.
We just released v0.15 of the GitButler client - new layout, new UI, advanced commit message editor, partial hunk commits, uncommitting files, GitLab integration - so much going on in the last few months.
Check it out.

sort of! in between versions 3 and 4 here we eliminated the idea of a 'worker server' (but are on the verge of bringing it back for better scalability) blog.val.town/blog/first-f...
also around that time we switched from two repos (frontend & backend) to a monorepo 
Curious what Prisma Postgres would actually cost?
We built a pricing calculator that lets you:
✅ Pick from common usage patterns
✅ Or enter your own operations and storage to get a realistic estimate
If anything’s missing, we’d love to improve it based on your feedback 👇
pris.ly/ppg-pricing... basically the one application design principle that i cannot get enough of is 'the monolith', the fewer parts an application has the better. val town started with 3 and went down to 2 and i wish it was 1. perfection is a single binary running the whole app, every microservice is a policy failure.

We just released native support for sharding by adding shard key attributes in the Prisma schema, so you can easily define which fields of your models are used as shard keys.

🪄 Prisma Postgres' backup mechanism just became a lot better: Restore a previous snapshot of your DB with a single click!
If you're on a Pro or Business plan, find the new "Backups" tab to view the backups for your DB and select the one to restore!

You'd think that any PNG file would actually align with the PNG standard. But no, a long time ago, Apple decided they would hijack the PNG file and make it "iPhone-optimized": and, for example, flip red and blue pixels: marekfort.me/blog/iphone-... Would you accept a pull request that puts the extra sheep in reply tweets? What's 🐺?
nice! if you haven't found already, here are some links for llm prompting in val town, which includes a pretty good system prompt docs.val.town/quickstarts/...
