Hey kids, we're broadcasting in video now, hopefully that works, TBD. This week Morten decided to use PostgreSQL for telemetry data for now, ClickHouse when scale requires it and Dominic used / polished the schedule tasks and server-side function of StaticBackend.

It's one of these week where we just talk about challenges we're facing with our respective product. Morten wants to use ClickHouse, with subtility Dominic try to say that maybe Postgres might be just good for now. Dominic released StaticBackend v1.7.0 and talks about where things are with this project.

It's sounds way bigger than what it is, for both of us frankly. But hey, we're using Go to try and generate a living out of our respective products and there's no small achievements. We talk about struggles of real-world life of trying and building a product enough people care about so we can continue our dreams of sustainability. Of course this still involve Go since we both bet on Go for our products and our usual tangents. This format might be close to what go podcast() is evolving too. We're always looking to talk to Gophers, if you want to talk about something that passion you reach out. When there's no interview, well we go free-style talking about our products, our challenges and everything in between.

This week Iván Ovejero join me and we talk about Lisette, a nice programming language that's inspired by Rust and compiles to Go. Programming languages are the new JS framework these days it seems. I personally enjoy discovering new language, sometimes it clicks sometimes it don't. Go is a great language, but I'll admit that having a better type system, the exhaustive pattern match on enum, and a pipe operator to me feels like very nice to have / quality of life as Gophers. In any case, it's always great to talk to language creators, And who knows, maybe you'll want some excitement and try something new this week.Links:Lisette's websiteIvan's website

Ep. 208 features Nathan Thomas and Brett DeBari, the founding team behind GridGorilla, a digital platform that evolves the classic Super Bowl squares format into a year-round, player-stat-based prediction experience.   Hear them discuss: Brett's journey through tech sales at Dell and AWS to previous gaming startups, and Nathan's 20-year engineering career ranging from biomedical startups to database architecture How the team identified the "mass market" appeal of Super Bowl squares and adapted it into a year-round digital product Moving beyond final scores to create player-performance grids involving stats like points and rebounds across an x and y axis Why they opted for a free-to-play, ad-supported model to lower barriers to entry and onboard non-bettors. Leveraging AI-simulated matchups (e.g., LeBron James vs. the '86 Pistons) to keep users in the app for multiple sessions per day Nathan's experience navigating the complex, one-year process of securing a software patent for their predictive grid system Why the three-person team chose to remain self-funded and the "leap of faith" required to build the company without meeting in person How Nathan operates as a one-person dev team by leveraging tools like Cursor AI, Flutter, and Golang to write nearly 97% of the app's code Seeing success with Meta ads under a $2 CAC and partnering with influencers and brand ambassadors to scale to 10,000 users Future plans for pay-to-play mechanics and a B2B licensing play to offer embeddable grid widgets for other brands and apps   The dedicated Startup Zone at SBC Summit Americas gives real-money gaming startups a platform to showcase to 10,000+ attendees — including investors, operators, suppliers, media, and key industry players.  Spaces are limited, secure yours now through https://www.bettingstartups.com/sbc-americas-2026   If you don't have a ticket for the event yet, use discount code BETTINGSTARTUPSVIP for 30% off your pass.

Hey we talk about streaming programming session, some updates on our produicts, and challenges related to marketing.Ho and Morten quit the call for a second time in a row, this streak has to stop ;).

I talk about a weird issue I'm having all of a sudden with Redis. VPS hosting in general, the famous 5 years mark for a server. Morten is using neovim, which I find very interesting, so we took an un-scripted tangent talking about text editors.

In this episode, we dive into the dangerous "pre-launch purgatory"—that final stretch after reaching V1 but before the first paying customers arrive. It's a period where the temptation to start over is at its peak, armed with all the lessons learned during the build. We discuss how to resist the urge to refactor your SaaS into oblivion and why shipping "imperfect" code is the only way to get the feedback you actually need.In the second half, the conversation shifts to the challenges of maintainership. My co-host shares the hurdles he's currently facing with his open-source project, Andurel. When you're building in a vacuum without a clear signal from users, how do you decide which features matter? We explore the shared struggle of finding a "North Star" when the feedback loop is quiet and the roadmap feels uncertain.

Ramesh contacted me regarding what we've been saying lately in the pod regarding using LLM and some bad experiences we've had and maybe even some negativity etc. He wanted to give his perspective and experiences using LLMs, where it's working well for him and his team and give some tips regarding potential miss-use and what have been working good for him.

We hop into the call and start recording, and what we found, we had both issues / concerns about quality of LLM produce code. Morten is reviewing some aspect of his project before releasing the public version and found some interesting thing that would make it hard to justify leaving them there. I had very similar issues, entering into a full refactor of a Go backend server I let the LLM cook for a rare time in Go, and decided at some point that enough is enough and decided to refactor the code.It's not like it's big surprise, and I think we're a lot in that situation. When you truly start to review the code that is generated, let's just say that sometimes it's not the best work you'd have done yourself. It's quicker though, no question there. But at what cost.I also finally ditched nginx and installed Caddy for my production servers.

This week we talk about multiple in-the-news topics like the SalesForce announcement that Heroku is in ~maintenance mode and we surface the big observability topic as I'm preparing to implement something basic for StaticBackend and since Morten already have this in his open source project we duscuss about ways to add this after the fct and some parts of tracing your system.

Meet Morten, I said I wanted to try and bring co-hosts in 2026 to test how it feel to have co-hosts. We're starting this with a discussion on LLM and tech education and a little bit of education more extended. As someone that create courses we've all more or less felt a drop as AI and LLM are used in ~tech training or does people even still wants to get new skills and what not. It's a major concerns and like most people are realizing after using an LLM seriously, well let's just say that an expert is kind of very hard to replace, especially when it's time to learn new skills.
