This reminds me of Exist[1], although their inputs are mostly automatic and so the data quickly becomes overwhelming and tautological ("you spend more time active when you work out for a longer distance"). Glad to see another entry into this space.

Ten years in the industry. I was #90 at Twitch and grew it to its $1B Amazon acquisition. I've been successful backend and full stack.

I have a special eye for increasing developer velocity. I thrive in small companies with teammates who trust each other, where I can wear a lot of hats and have autonomy to solve pressing issues without much process.


This is an amazing story and a clever innovation. I cannot fathom why the author is so upset about it.


I'm not the dev, but based on the source it looks like Mongo: https://github.com/vasanthv/webtag/blob/main/server/collecti...

One place I'm surprised I don't see this more is sets. In my experience arrays are used without a second thought when any collection type is needed.

Ten years in industry. I was #90 at Twitch and grew it to, through, and past its $1B Amazon acquisition. I've been successful in backend and low-JS full stack roles, including bleeding edge HTML/CSS. Very experienced in Go and Ruby on Rails, experienced in TypeScript and Python, polyglot otherwise.

I have a special eye for, and experience in, increasing developer velocity and improving developer experience internally and externally. This includes writing documentation, automating its publishing, building command-line tools to capture complex flows, building CI/CD, writing and speeding up tests, building service templates and service generators, and more.

Have spun up and maintained infrastructure in Terraform, AWS CloudFormation and CDK, Docker, and Kubernetes.

I thrive in small (< 100) companies with teammates who trust each other, where I can wear a lot of hats and have a lot of autonomy to solve the most pressing issues without much process. I do however recognize the importance of measuring outcomes and I am self-sufficient at doing so.

I'm a staff/principal level Software Engineer, full-stack for low/no-JS or backend otherwise. I've worked "in the open" a lot so bonus points for working on open source and/or community management. I have a lot of experience moving monolithic apps to microservices, from the Rails → Go move at Twitch.


Can you share some source material for improved happiness?


Not the person you asked, but results of a quick search. I only gave each of these a quick scan, but it seems to be a well supported claim.
