Choosing Retry Boundaries for Node.js Worker Pools: SQS, RabbitMQ, or BullMQ

The article argues that the key question for a rate-limited worker pool is who owns a failed delivery and what happens after the final attempt, not which queue is fastest. Amazon SQS suits small teams that want managed operations and a policy-driven dead-letter queue for repeated failures. RabbitMQ offers broker-level control and routing flexibility, but the team must build its own retry and dead-letter logic. BullMQ provides a Node.js-oriented job API with explicit retry and backoff, though it makes Redis part of the reliability boundary. In every option, the author recommends making the worker idempotent to avoid duplicate updates and endless requeue loops.

Free Offline KDV Calculator PWA Supports 22 Languages and International VAT Rates

A developer built a free Progressive Web App to calculate KDV, Turkey's value-added tax, after finding that many existing calculators produce incorrect results. The tool supports standard Turkish rates of 1%, 8%, and 18% as well as custom rates, and uses the correct formula, such as dividing the gross amount by 1.20 for a 20% rate. It can be installed on iPhone and Android without an app store, works offline, requires no signup, and keeps data on the user's device. The developer also lists VAT rates for Germany, France, and the Netherlands, and the wider app offers more than 25 tools available in 22 languages.

Why one developer keeps a paper notebook beside the keyboard instead of an app

A developer reports repeatedly trying to swap their paper notebook for a note-taking app, and failing each time. The main obstacle is speed: a useful debugging thought fades in about four seconds, and opening an app takes longer than that. Writing a notebook entry takes only a moment. The author recommends jotting the smallest useful detail, such as the failing command or the expected versus actual value. Those brief notes tend to be quicker to reread than searching again when the same problem returns.
