Gil's Week #202024

This week I…

• Didn’t use the planck to write this newsletter, so hopefully, there will be a lot less typos, sorry about the previous newsletter.
• Am sending the newsletter very late, on a Wednesday, sorry!
• Still keep feeling the effect of not using instagram, I have also not been using twitter and reading news very sparringly, which is doing wonders to my mental health, but any time I slip and open twitter, I am reminded that the world is on fire, which isn’t great. I hope you’re alright, reader of this newsletter <3.
• Played a lot of red dead redemption, I’m loving the game more and more, it felt same-ey in the beginning but I’m now seeing that the story is actually quite good.

Sound of the week

• DATA - Don’t Sing feat. Benny Sings one of the best video clips I’ve seen.

Great URLs

• Things I Wished More Developers Knew About Databases, a great article about DBs, if you use them, read this article, you will probably find it interesting.
• Recent database technology that should be on your radar, an article about some new DBs. I guess there’s a theme on this newsletter, I usually don’t pay much attention to databases, but there’s some cool ones on this article, I probably won’t use any of them, but it’s good to know they exist.

Cheers,

Gil
