I noticed a pattern when I code, especially on net-new features or in personal projects (where everything is net-new) I overcomplicate and overthink a lot of implementation. I try to make things scalable but sometimes I feel like it slows down my development a lot, especially when I end up sitting for 40 minutes without having written much code because I’m just thinking about the best way to implement something somewhat complex. And then next thing I know I thought of it wrong and it wasn’t the great implementation I thought it would be and feel like I should restart because it sucks 😂 When working at my job I can get a lot done, on the upper end of how much my peers can do, but there already is so much code in a code base I can “model” off of which is why I can do so. Net-new features always throw me in a loop. What are ways I could speed up the time between understanding the initial problem, to start implementing a high quality solution? Outside the obvious “practice” answer because thats a given lol. Note that I am mostly avoiding the use of AI. On job and out of job. This is for learning purposes.

Before reading this article, I was under the impression that all network traffic goes through the ISP; however, the diagram implies that only the DNS request goes through the ISP. I tried googling online, and they say all requests go through the ISP (including gRPC requests), but I want to clarify, just in case. The photo attached, titled "How the Web Works," is the diagram I am talking about. The white diagram is the one I made for what I imagined it was earlier (I omitted the internet connections that would be between the ISP and Google's Servers, but I feel it gets the point across). Any clarification would be appreciated! :D

Hey team! 👋 I'm starting work on the GraphQL API https://github.com/orgs/DeveloperMastery/projects/1/views/6?pane=issue&itemId=131626259&issue=DeveloperMastery%7Cfintrack-api%7C11. Before diving in, I have a few questions to make sure I build this right: - 1. Are we replacing the REST API or running GraphQL alongside it? - 2. Which entities should be exposed via GraphQL? (Users, Transactions, Budgets, Categories, etc.) - 3. Should GraphQL run on the same Express server or separate? - 4. Keep current Firebase + JWT auth or migrate to GraphQL-specific auth? - 5. Any preference on library? (Apollo Server, express-graphql, etc.) Let me know so I can plan the implementation properly! 🚀

Hey guys, I'm trying to use my Task App that I created, but the data is not loading. It's simply stalling. What is going on here? The last thing I remember is that the DB was in some sort of test mode, but I wasn't really sure if I could make it public since I have ZERO security on it haha.... Here is a screen shot of what the console says on the app. Any idea how I can troubleshoot this and get it working again? Thanks! @Hayk Simonyan
