I already talked about Turso a few times before while collecting some knowledge, but they never ceize to amaze! They are rewriting SQLite in Rust now! More Rust! More!

Why can’t we make simple software

As much as I’d like to advocate for software simplicity, not overthinking, “You Ain’t Gonna Need It” etc, that’s not really a thing. With the need to support a million platforms, CPU architectures, screen sizes, input devices/options, network connectivity, storage, different communication protocols and millons of more things software will get complex. A great talk showcasing why simple software is not really a possibility.
