Read more on using custom validation 👇
pris.ly/d/custom-va... Prisma + Zod 4 = automatic validation 🚀
Your TypeScript types don't exist at runtime.
API requests aren’t validated.
Form submissions aren’t either.
Zod fixes that.
Prisma Client extensions make it automatic. Every create, every update, validated.

Riding into the desert today, shooting some Ektar 100 - very excited to see how it turns out 🥰
Mapping SwiftPM traits to Xcode for Tuist highlighted the growing gap between them. Traits = cleaner SWIFT_ACTIVE_COMPILATION_CONDITIONS + conditional deps. But Xcode gets neither convenience. These inconsistencies pile up and hurt the ecosystem. hit the ‘relearning auld lang syne with classtab.org and worrying that nobody will show up to the party’ phase of nye Steal this alert sanity check:
• errors up + traffic flat = regression
• latency up + traffic up = load
• errors up + traffic up = scaling or dependency
• errors flat + latency up = slow backend
Boring rules. Fewer fire drills.
docs.netlify.com/manage/monit... Thanks for the feedback, Remy. Totally agree: the bandwidth CSV is super useful, and having a similar export for web requests would make spikes way easier to trace. Shared this with the team.
fuckingapproachableconcu... made it to HackerNews and people are loving it! 🎉
