Thanks so much for this! I’m the design system lead and this has made the team very happy.


‘Developer-first Zapier alternative’ is an odd positioning, I think the point of Zapier is that it’s for non-developers mainly. Looking at the comments, though, it seems like there’s a need for something like this. Keen to see how you iterate and improve your positioning. Good luck!


My experience with Zapier is that you quickly hit a point where you’re building an ultra complex expression or manipulating json in a less than ideal editor. Also your zap is basically the ast of the code you would have written and grows quickly. Code is far more terse.

That said, long running durable workflow tools that are targeted at devs all have challenges. There’s room for a Goldilocks solution. I’d imagine temporal will win though.


It looks less if you compare salary to salary, but factoring in the civil service pension means GDS staffers probably get paid more


Actually a 2020 purchase but it keeps paying dividends: Pax 3 vaporiser.

The TikTok algorithm but for RSS would be a winner.

manager here, but weed helps me unwind and destress after a busy week or day, think i'd jeopardise that work/life balance by ripping shotties during work hours


Psychedelic therapy, unless done right, would create more thoughts and narrow the aperture of any framework or safety net. It seems like a nuclear option in this context (but I’m interested in being corrected on that).


That link to coordination models is good. Wish I had that when writing https://visitmy.website/2020/11/06/users-trust-delivery/
