Thanks for your comment, I assumed that Beeper uses the DMA API [1], but I couldn't find if they really do, or they are just faking requests "like from official app". It seems the latter is true since it shows my chat history and DMA does not include that.
No, it is not. You have whole Facebook bar on top with the notification bell, with unread notifications dark pattern. You need to have your Meessenger account tied to Facebook account. This is clear indication that facebook.com is on a drip. The site is dying.
Next, expect to have to install Facebook app to access Messenger.
I have my firefox browser configured to keep using a separate search field and not make search queries in the url bar. It annoys a lot my partner if I let her use my computer to check something but it is frictionless once you unlearn bad habits.
This post is discussing more specialized databases, but why would people choose Oracle/Microsoft DB instead of Postgres? Your own experience is welcome.
I'd pick MSSQL if I was being compensated based upon the accuracy, performance, durability and availability of the system. Also in any cases where the customer can pay and won't complain even once about how much this costs.
I'd never advocate for a new oracle install. But, I'd likely defend an existing one. I've seen how effective pl/sql can be in complex environments. Rewriting all that sql just because "oracle man bad" (or whatever) is a huge fucking ask of any rational business owner.
Easy answer here - nearly every LOB app we have uses MSSQL.
I've had engineers want to talk about syncing it to MySQL using some custom plumbing so that they can build a reporting infra around their MySQL stack, but it's just another layer of complexity over having code just use Microsoft's reporting services.
I'll add, having finance people with Excel really like being able to pull data directly from MSSQL, they do not like hearing about a technican's python app.
It’s funny that almost all vibe coded software have this detailed tree project structure in README. If I recall correctly, this was not common in pre-LLM era. It was too much burden to maintain.
