Comment on Show HN: Port Zero – How I learned to stop worrying and love PORT=0

Comments

Recently I wasted several hours wrangling my dev environment only to find out that the browser frontend was talking to the wrong version of the backend.

I have never faced this problem even though I hard-code the port. It's because I run the server program through VS Code's debugger. If there's already a session, it would warn me.

Well, there's your problem! You're not getting the efficiency gains of multi-agent slop slinging loops working like that…

I am seriously considering taking a break from this industry when it goes to the dogs and hustlemaxxers (approximately the same thing).
