SSDs have become fast, except in the cloud

I am _super_ impressed with Supabase. I can see how a lot of people may not like it given how reliant it is on Postgres, but I find it to be absolutely genius.

It basically allows me to forego having to make a server for the CRUD operations so I can focus on the actual business implications. My REST API is automatically managed for me (mostly with lightweight views and functions) and all of my other core logic is either spread out through edge functions or in a separate data store (Redis) where I perform the more CPU intensive operations related to my business.

There's some rough edges around their documentation and DX but I'm really loving it so far.
