📝 ✨ ~ End of summer, end of Gatsby?

Mon, 28 Aug 2023 00:00:00 GMT

School has started here in Norway, the #SummerOffice is closed until next year, and Labour Day Weekend is coming up in the US.

All pointing toward the end of summer in the northern hemisphere, and maybe even the end of Gatsby?

Last week FredKSchott (co-creator of Astro - kinda biased fella come to think of it) stated:

And wardpeet, former tech lead at Gatsby, answered:

The "Gatsby is dead" sentiment spread like wildflowers in the community.

However, Netlify followed up with:

What we do know is that Gatsby Cloud will be shutting down.

For all Gatsby Cloud Free plan customers, your Gatsby Cloud instance will be discontinued on September 29, 2023.

We also know that Gatsby powers 19% of Netlify's enterprise customers - enterprise is where the money's at! Twitter-devs making blogs and portfolios, not so much.

This summer, Netlify shipped adaptors, making it possible for any hosting provider to run full-featured Gatsby sites. Before acquiring Gatsby, Netlify had to reverse engineer SSR, DSR, etc.

I am still hopeful that we'll see Gatsby evolve, but I'll be looking into Astro while also spending some more time tinkering with good old Node.

Totally feel the vibe of this post doing its rounds on Twitter.

What are you up to this fall? Any projects got you extra excited? Let me know!

All the best,
Queen Raae

📝 ✨ ~ Bank holiday bonanza 🎉 And this week's schedule

Mon, 01 May 2023 00:00:00 GMT

May is bank-holiday bonanza here in Norway, starting with today and International Workers' Day. We're hosting a BBQ, and the weather forecast is suddenly snow 😱

So expect my emails to be few and far between this month; I'll focus on getting out an edited video every other week together with the bi-weekly stream.

Let me know what you would like to see a video explain!

Tomorrow we're interviewing Anthony Eden, founder of DNSimple, on Data in the Wild. He was a hoot to interview for Slow & Steady, so I totes recommend you tune in.

📝 ✨ ~ Getting back in the (literal) saddle 🐎 And this week's schedule

Mon, 24 Apr 2023 00:00:00 GMT

Spent the weekend at a horse farm with the Pirate Princess doing five classes each and plenty of chores. I don't know why I even brought my computer 🤷‍♀️

It's been a month since I fell off a horse and got a minor concussion. And it was fantastic to get back in the saddle. A little more conscious than I have been in the past, asked to focus on the basics. But I also did a few jumps 💪

What's your (metaphorical) saddle? Is there anything you've postponed because you fear getting back into it?

Tell me, and I'll be your accountability buddy!

📝 ✨ ~ It takes practice and creative side quests 👩‍🎨 And this week's schedule

Mon, 27 Mar 2023 00:00:00 GMT

We spent Saturday at the local library and their comic series party. The Pirate Princess and her friend enjoyed helping the comic book author Sara Hjardar, create scary creatures from cute animals.

I appreciated the part of her talk where she showed her process—even some drawings from kindergarten. It very visually drove home that it takes practice and creative side quests to end up with a project like hers—something we all need to be reminded of every now and then.

This week we'll interview Anna Maste for the Xata podcast Data in the Wild. She is the exited founder of Boondockers Welcome and the current founder of Subscribe Sense.

Spend the weekend at a mountain cabin catching up on some work, hanging with my friend, and skiing.

It was also the weekend Prune your Follows passed 1000 users 🥳 We'll celebrate by testing the new Xata AI feature to help you find more accounts to unfollow on Thursday's unauthorized and rum-fueled treasure hunt.

📝 ✨ ~ Ready, set, go! ✨ And this week's schedule

Mon, 13 Mar 2023 00:00:00 GMT

After a slow week of listening to a bunch of podcasts, I am ready to get my coding on this week 👩‍💻 I still need to be mindful of the concussion, though, so I postponed some scheduled streams to ensure I don't overdo it.

Tomorrow is the first Data in the Wild recording, a podcast we are doing for Xata. It would mean a lot to us if you show up in the chat.

I certainly look forward to learning from Monica Lent experience data modeling "User Roles and Permission"!

📝 ✨ ~ Don't fall off the horse 🐴 And this week's (non) schedule

Tue, 07 Mar 2023 00:00:00 GMT

I had a blast hanging with the horse Elsa and some lovely colleagues from the bank I work for a couple of days a week. However, I fell off on Sunday and am not allowed much screen time this week because of the slight concussion. So no streams or emails from me, but plenty of streams next week 😅
