Your website currently uses magic links to sign in users. This seems to be a completely secure method of authentication, yet is still quite uncommon compared to the traditional username + password combo's. Why do you think that is? If it's just as secure, or perhaps more secure, how can we improve adoption of this method? How I built a modern website in 2021 (I've got a section in here that describes the auth flow)

I come from non-CS background, MIS. Since you also come from a non-CS background, did you find that you needed to fill in any holes in your knowledge to get to where you are today?

Epic React has been on my radar ever since you started teasing it on Twitter. To me it feels like a "must have" that I "can't have". Obviously, it has a pretty hefty price tag, which I'm sure it more than warrants. But because of that price tag, it becomes unaffordable to me personally, and with my workplace being quite small, they're not always as forthcoming as I'd hope when it comes to paying for something like this either. I was wondering if you've ever considered adding payment options to your courses to make them more affordable in the short term, allowing people like me to pay over several months, potentially via a service similar to ClearPay or Klarna, or whatever else is out there! I'm sure there are more intricacies to something like this, but would love to hear your thoughts! Thanks! EpicReact.dev Credits

That’s a follow-up question to Call Kent Podcast 09 “How to style?" Did you mention on "Call Kent Podcast 09 - How to style?" the remix capability to get the link tags removed from the page when the route is no longer active and with that, the styles could get removed as well, helping to avoid CSS clashes. How does Remix manage situations where the page that is active has multiple components, and those components are using different CSS files and potentially changing the same selector style (both could be changing the p tag)? Or even if the page itself is using multiple CSS files? How does remix manage situations where it needs to handle multiple CSS files that need to be used on the page that is active and it still needs to avoid clashes? Thanks for answering, Kent!

Nowadays, we have a bunch of approaches that we can take to style our applications, like: pure CSS, pre-processors, CSS Modules, utilities, component UI’s, CSS in JS and for some of them, we have another bunch of libraries that we can choose as well. Sometimes we can get lost in the middle of them trying to find the better one for our needs. What do you take into consideration when choosing an approach to style? Do you think that some use cases fit better in one approach than in another? Is there a particular approach that you believe is ahead of the rest? Or do you prefer? So, how to style?

Why do you think there’s still so much hype around JamStack and SSG, when form submissions and server redirects for data mutations tend to work better a lot of the time? There’s not a lot of ecosystem interest (outside of Remix) to lean on this baked-in superpower of the web, and I find that interesting. This is less about the tech, and more about the psychology in the JS ecosystem. Maybe it’s a funding or marketing thing?next-runtime
