Reviewing some of my earliest web projects: they have a mix of Postgres, MySQL and Mongo. These days I just use sqlite for all my personal projects. It's really good at my scale and makes deploying very easier.

Is there a good term for "after using this feature we realised that the best design is different from the current design"? In casual conversation I generally hear "bug" but there was nothing wrong with the original implementation.

My default assumption is that external libraries are better than what I (or an LLM) would write in a v1. The extra effort to publish a project generally signifies that the author has spent a good amount of time on the problem. I end up prompting LLMs to prefer external code.
