We are a small company and spending so much on a tool is just not feasible. Free or open source suggestions are preferred.

I’m reaching my limit with this jargon. Every time I see a project description or a senior dev claiming they’ve built something "future-proof," I can’t help but roll my eyes.

What is the actual definition here?

• Definition A: It’s so perfect it will never need to change? (Statistically impossible.)
• Definition B: It’s built to evolve with the future? (Which sounds like "regular software development" with extra steps.)

In an industry where the "hot new framework" changes every six months and "best practices" from 2022 are now considered tech debt, how can we honestly claim to proof anything against the future? To me, it feels like a fancy way of saying "I over-engineered this for a scenario that might never happen."

Is there such a thing as a truly future-proof codebase, or is this just a buzzword we use to make ourselves feel better about the inevitable 2028 refactor?

With the rise of high-performance PWAs and the sheer "app fatigue" of having screens full of icons we barely use, it feels like the native mobile model is slowly dying off in favor of a more streamlined, web-centric future. Does anyone else feel like the "there's an app for that" mentality is becoming a relic of the past?

I switched to a new Airtel sim with the same number and I my Amazon prime subscription which I already had is not getting reflected on the app now.

It’s asking me to rebuy the subscription while the status in the Airtel app says that there is validity till Sept 2026.
