  1. It's on the landing page, there is not even a standalone mode yet, so you can't use it with node.js you need to use with Next.js. All to say, it's just early alpha preview, I would wait the project to mature before considering using it anywhere.
  2. > Forget Celery

    How do you do background job processing without Celery? Every app/website I ever developed required some sort of background job processing, for Python I use Celery, Rails I use Sidekiq, Node.js I use Faktory. One of the biggest drawbacks (at least until a while ago) was that setting this up had to be a hacky webhook call to your own app that allowed up to N seconds request/response.

  3. Minor thing with the website but the download button is not entirely clickable, if you don't click on the text you don't get to download it, due to the div > a and the anchor being just the text, consider styling the anchor to have the padding so the whole thing is clickable. :)
  4. What kind of setup did you have that Typeform was costly? We are on the $299/month plan coming from $99/month, and if you run a money making business of Typeform, this cost should be negligible compared to all other costs of running a business.
  5. The access control portion is not clear to me: `current_user_organization_id()` where is this reading from? We tried using `set_config` https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/functions-admin.html and it was incredibly slow, it was not designed for how we were using which was included connection pooling and each query ran a difference "current_user_id" set_config.
  6. I love tailwind, used in 3 projects in the past 4 years, it’s intuitive, well documented, simple. I don’t miss the days of emotion and styled components where I would have to think of a name for every styled div in the project, with tailwind a container is just a div and a few classes nothing else. Less bike shedding discussion, less brain cycles spent naming things, less time wasted in reviews.
  7. If you are maximizing income, go work for the company that pays you the most. If you consider other things then it's not that simple: * control on which project you work on * choose your cooworkers * choose your office location * return to office policies * choose process and bureaucracies It's about how many degrees of freedom you want.
  8. It’s expensive and it’s good that other options are available, it’s not insanely expensive though, the people that need the upgrade often make 6 figure salaries and can afford the upgrade although they might not like the idea of paying it, I personally hate it but I know when I buy the machine will last me at least 5 years, which is good enough for me.
  9. I find the cinebench benchmarks meh, every YouTuber and every publisher uses it, few YouTubers do more of a practical test which is quite more useful. I would like to see a comparison with older models as most people that have an m3 are not considering an upgrade.
  10. I've completed Exercism courses and they are great.

    One thing that was obvious to me is that if you want to focus on a specific topic the $15/month subscription is too cheap, you can pay, take the course, cancel because you are done with the course, all within the month.

    The other thing that is challenging is that the majority of programmer is either too cheap or "too broke", $15 USD is a meaningful amount of money in other countries with weaker currency, and in countries with strong currency I've met people paying thousands for a university diploma, doing a well paid internship that "could not afford exercism". That's though, I hope I never have to build a business for software developers.

    All of that shared experience comes from 3-4 years ago, so prices, models might have changed since that, but if they go under it's sad, their UI and their UX was so clean, fun, interactive, pleasant, etc, it was a joy to study using their material.

  11. Kudos on launching it, I will be trying in a few meetings to see if it goes well, so far I am finding the UI unresponsive, I click and it marks an action item as completed (optimistic update) then it reverts back to unchecked (failed). I asked the assistant what Synergy meant and it just hanged. I liked the use of a fake meeting as an introduction to the product and the action items as an onboarding checklist, I like that you launched with a delete my account as well, most startups take a long time before implementing the exit path.
  12. I’ve been playing every day it’s relaxing, quick, fun. I added to my Home Screen so I don’t lose it.
  13. About Fly but not about the GPU announcement, I wish they had a S3 replacement, they suggest a GNU Affero project that is a dealbreaker for any business, needing to leave Fly to store user assets was a dealbreaker for us to use Fly on our next project, sad cause I love the simplicity, the value for money, the built in VPN.
  14. I would downvote because the person is being reductive, in such a way that you can destroy most joy in life.
  15. Everything is an ad these days, check any new content similar to this blogpost, YouTube videos, etc. That said, the article is brief, direct, deliver good points then wraps up with an ad.
  16. I visited SF recently and they smashed by trunk, found nothing and left me with the repair service from the rental company, it was a Friday morning at a park.
  17. Nobody mentions User Experience. SourceForge was terrible, Google Code also, Gitlab has an acceptable UX. Github kills it in most fronts.

    What prevents Github Copilot from expanding to FOSS that is not hosted by them in the future? Just how Google indexes and caches the whole internet, what prevents this thing from going to public gitea of FOSS projects and scraping to train their model!?

    I love Copilot, will pay for it.

  18. I used TabNine for years, if I recall correctly it was developed by a Waterloo (Ontario - Canada) student and bought by an Israeli company. Once they changed their EULA my security aware company was like can't use that anymore. I provided that feedback to them but I guess I was the only one raising eyebrows. My suggestion is just lower your price to match Copilot, so it's easy on the user deciding between both of you, I am for one sold on how useful Copilot is.
  19. Heroku is a one of kind platform, many tried to replicate, none have come close, the ability to setup a whole app with a few clicks on dynos and add-ons is great. The price was always salty $50/month for 1gb RAM shared CPU, and in the few past years no newly released features comes to mind. As a customer I have no idea what this security issue impact, the communication has been poor as this post does not clarify much, you have to click a status post link to see a feed of what's going on.
