spaulo12··on Show HN: I built a website for my movie podcast with my childhood friend

It's a Rails 8 monolith with the standards under the hood (Redis, Postgres) and there is a ton of interactivity built in around the episodes we've done and the films we've discussed. Lots to poke around with, and more connections between episodes are on the drawing board.

spaulo12··on A Case Against the Gridded Homepage
This isn't a case against a "gridded" homepage... it's a case against arbitrary grids. The new page is still a grid, it's just a cleaner one, that does a better job of showcasing "what's important."
