Here are my pics for round 1 of the playoffs

• 49ers (-9) over Seahawks - It looks like 49ers hit a moonshot with Purdy.
• Jags over Chargers - Jags +1.5, the money line is tougher. Both coaches are gamblers, but Peterson has actually won in the past.
• Bills (-13.5) over Dolphins - 13.5 is a significant number, but I doubt this one will be within 20 points.
• Giants (+3) over Vikings - The Giants will win and do not need the points.
• Ravens (+9) over Bengals. - The Bengals will win since the Ravens cannot score, but 9 is too many points. If it comes out that the Ravens hate Lamar, I could be swayed.
• Buc (+2.5) over the Cowboys - My hate for the Cowboys might cloud my judgment, but they have not looked great. My guess is the Cowboys will win, but it is close because Dak is Dak.

I would hate to see Tweetbot go, but considering Twitter makes zero revenue from it, and it has no ads, I am not shocked.

Even the Twitter blue folks only get to skip a portion of the ads.

I enjoy the three extra clicks it takes to do a traditional call instead of using huddles. #neverhuddles

The SaaS Playbook - a new book by @robwalling - will be an instant purchase once available.

I didn't realize Bullet Train was now open source (it looks like you have to pay to use Stripe, but that feels very fair).

I have not dug too deeply into yet, so no opinion other than it is probably worth looking through it before you start your next project.

U.S. Stock Market Returns by Year

Interesting overview of 1872-2022. 2022 felt extremely painful but apparently it was minor compared to 2008.

Not bad for midafternoon Saturday. I was planning on just hanging out at a coffee shop most of the morning in NYC, but listened to a large chunk of Dying with Zero and just walked.

I could do the hipster thing.

Migrating from a Postgres Cluster to Distributed SQLite with LiteFS

I love me some Postgres, but the SQLite with LiteFS (via @flydotio) just sounds fun.

After nearly 12 years, we finally moved from $redis on KickoffLabs to REDIS.

All it took was Standard to yell at me for a week or so (and my inability to disable the rule in this project 😄)
