They're the same thing. One of my takeaways from that is that timing is really, really important. Intercooler was too early. And we've seen that before in tech. If timing is what matters then the longer you can hang around, the more likely you are to catch that timing at some point.” ~ Carson Gross “As I've gotten older, I've stopped looking for the one true programming language  and the one true way to  do X or Y or Z. There's a lot of different ways to get stuff done. And I like that there are people doing them different ways and that they've got their different take on things.” ~ Carson Gross Links Montana State University: https://www.montana.eduJameson: https://www.jamesonwhiskey.comBulleit 12 Year Rye: https://www.bulleit.com/whiskey/bulleit-12-year-old-ryeStagg JR: https://www.buffalotracedistillery.com/brands/stagg-jrMaker’s Mark: https://www.makersmark.comRedbreast: https://www.redbreastwhiskey.comOCaml: https://ocaml.orgHyperCard Programmer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperCardVercel: https://vercel.comThinking in Java: https://www.amazon.com/Thinking-Java-4th-Bruce-Eckel/dp/0131872486JetBrains: https://www.jetbrains.comTailwindCSS: https://tailwindcss.comIntercoolerJS / intercoolerjs.org: https://intercoolerjs.orgBig Sky Dev Con: https://bigskydevcon.comManning: https://www.manning.comTeej_dv: https://www.twitch.tv/teej_dvFireship - htmx in 100 seconds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-GSGH2RxJsHacker News: https://news.ycombinator.comsst.dev: https://sst.devDax Raad: https://x.com/thdxrOpen Next on GitHub: https://github.com/serverless-stack/open-nextfloppydisks.com: https://floppydisks.comZork Game: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zorkhyperscript: https://hyperscript.orgunpoly: https://unpoly.comAnalogue: https://www.analogue.coParov Stelar: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVtnG15ufdzur71RqfqNSOg Connect with Carson Website: https://hypermedia.systemsHtmx: https://htmx.orgX / Twitter: https://x.com/htmx_org Connect with our hosts Robbie Wagner: https://x.com/RobbieTheWagnerChuck Carpenter: https://x.com/CharlesWthe3rd Subscribe and stay in touch Website: https://whiskey.fmApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/whiskey-web-and-whatnot/id1552776603Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/19jiuHAqzeKnkleQUpZxDfOvercast: https://overcast.fm/itunes1552776603YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WhiskeyWebAndWhatnot Whiskey Web and Whatnot MerchEnjoying the podcast and want us to make more?
