The Arc Browser
Arc is an internet browser released in 2022 by the Browser Company, a team of alums from Instagram, Google Chrome, Snap, Slack, Pinterest and more. I hope this will be worthy competitor to Chrome and may change the game forever.
Databases Sharding Explained
Your app is getting better. It has more features, more active users, and every day it collects more data. Your database is now causing the rest of your application to slow down. Database sharding might be the answer to your problems, but many people don’t know what it is and, most importantly, when to use it. Article by Mahdi Yusuf explains what database sharding is, how it works, and the best ways to use it.

Workspaces
I love my workspace, and I’m very curious about exploring the workspaces of creative individuals. In my quest, I stumbled upon the Workspaces website.
Its a beautiful collection of desk setups from creative individuals that was created by Ryan Gilbert. COVID-19 forced more and more companies into a WFH environment. An increasing number of tweets containing new desk setups began popping up daily. Workspaces was born to capture this inspiration in one place.
The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse

“The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse” by Charlie Mackesy is one of my favorite books. The brilliant book is now an Oscar-winning short film. I want to reread the quotes from the book to feed my soul and find the light in my dark days, so I’m sharing them here.
