A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

my biggest unexpected engineering lesson from my short adventure at merkle:

if you're cracked you have enough confidence to ship code to high-traffic prod without testing it first

stuff that i would estimate in my head for 2 days @gt can do in 2 hours because he just looks at the code, knows what to change and ships it -- while i need to find a way to run in a replicable environment, test, give others and only then im comfortable with shipping

bell curve: test in prod -- automated tests / staging / replicated envs -- test in prod

big corps optimize for average but assure you no startups ever became that for following convention.

100 file prs might make you cringe but they keep logic co located.
