> However, in this situation it may make more sense to disable biometric authentication.
In Face ID, there's a setting that requires direct eye contact in order to open your phone. Highly recommend enabling this when feeling insecure about someone forcing you to open your phone (if it's not already on by default) because it means somebody forcing you to open your phone with Face ID can be easily defeated by simply closing your eyes. I tried this a number of times during the BLM protests, and I/nobody else could get my phone to unlock unless my eyes were open and looking right at it. So with Face ID, I think it's actually way more secure to have biometric authentication turned on, using this setting. The thumbprint stuff might be a good idea to avoid though.
(WARNING: This will make your phone pretty much impossible to unlock with your face if you're inebriated on anything. Ask me how I know. xD You should probably disable it after the protest.)
Most people who make a living as a musician these days do so by being a "renaissance man" of sorts, where they make their money doing a multitude of different things. This includes playing live, but some other examples live sound, stage tech, lighting, promoting/booking events, instrument trade shows, and composing music. You can think of this as being "T-Shaped" in the software industry, except the difference is in the music industry, you need to be "T-Shaped" just to survive, not simply to excel. The "long part of the T" is what you generally want to do most of the time, and it's usually how people identify their job when asked. But really, most of us do a combination of many different things to get by, almost none of these jobs pay enough or are regular enough to do it on their own.
This was, and still is, a HUGE shift in the way I live my life after moving careers from software development into music composition...
Even as a film scorer, who has jobs that last for a long time and include many personal conversations with the film makers, you're not guaranteed to get back-to-back gigs, so when you're done with one score, what's next? It's not like there's always someone handing you jobs if you're doing this by yourself. But that's my preferred angle, because the jobs do last longer and there's a more regular (and higher) payout. It just takes a lot of back and forth with the people making the film, in order to get the vibes just right.
> SWC was one of the earlier Rust builders, which then became absorbed into Vercel and turned into Turbopack (is my understanding)
SWC and Turbopack aren't related in the sense that one is the "successor" of the other. They both do different things, and compliment each other. SWC is more lower-level, it's a compiler for JS (and other web tools) that converts your syntax into something any browser can understand. Turbopack is a bundler, it takes that compiled code and minifies/concatenates it together in various ways so it can be distributed to a browser efficiently. I believe Turbopack does in fact use SWC (if you're using Next that is) to do the "dirty" work of compiling TypeScript code into JavaScript quickly, but its main feature is the use of the Turbo engine to cache function calls at a very low level. From what I read, Turbopack's potential to make building JS apps incredibly efficient should be a really neat thing to work with in the future!
> I was also similarly disappointed with the quality of Supabase’s auth offering considering all the praise I consistently see for Supabase on HN.
Around the time you were trying it out, there were some issues with Supabase clients not authenticating properly in SSR environments like Next.js or Remix. I think those have been solved with the introduction of the `@supabase/ssr` library, and continuing to use a middleware for refreshing the session upon each request. This latter option was always available, but wasn't in the example, so I think a lot of folks didn't implement the auth middleware and thus didn't ever refresh their stored access token.
I had a comment in this file for a very long time but the project lead was something of a Professional so he removed it. The comment was "# MULTIPASS!"

Some context:
- The 5th Element is a cool movie
- My sister's dog was named Leeloo Dallas Multipass and she was like my favorite dog of all time
- I was the original developer of the `ProductMultipass` search query feature
- Turns out, funny comments make other developers like your product more
