   Appwrite is awesome, free and open-source!

   I've use it instead of Firebase on a 15$ DigitalOcean droplet and saved around ~$150 a month. Managing my own infra does take some extra time, but definitely worth it. The APIs and SDK are also surprisingly much easier to consume than Firebase. Waiting for the cloud version.

   🏁 Competitors: Firebase

   👍 Pros:    Easy to use|Cost effective|Open-source|Great user experience|Super simple|Self hosted

   👎 Cons:    Self hosted

• Concurrency in Haskell: Fast, Simple, Correct

  I'm not going to sell you on anything. All of the things you've mentioned are true. Loosely, the multitude of string types and the state of the standard library come from the same place: the language is 30+ years old! There are many warts to be found. However, if you decide to start learning, the path is hard, especially if you come from a non-computer-science background like me. I attempted to learn Haskell... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: What resources do you recommend for learning Haskell?

  Haskell Programming from First Principles[1] is extremely comprehensive, covering everything from lambda calculus to IO. For further self-learning, it might be interesting to learn about the underlying mathematical concepts, such as category theory. A deep dive into the workings of a Hindley–Milner type system might also significantly demystify some of Haskell's typing magic. [1] https://haskellbook.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Ask HN: What resources do you recommend for learning Haskell?

  I really liked https://haskellbook.com/. It’s long, but has exercises after each chapter which I found very helpful. The first chapter is about Lambda Calculus which is kind of a meme at this point, but learning it actually did help me a lot to grok how Haskell programs are meant to fit together. Other than that, just doing some basic side projects and leaning about how to use Cabal effectively should get you there. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Ask HN (Personal): Has anyone here ever tried throwing everything away?

  Yeah! Six months after graduating from Northwestern University I quit my cushy 6-figure WFH job to move to Finland as a quasi-illegal immigrant. (I say "quasi-" because "STEM undergrad from a top university moving to a much poorer country" is, ah, not what you usually think of.) I was unemployed for over a year due to passport issues, living in a tiny vacation town of ~10,000 close to the Arctic Circle, and used... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
