Trove - a really simple web app where I can shove some files without having to really think about configuring anything

Go, docker, bit of alpine js

Linguistics question: the title says “[…] is associated with lower anger and anxiety” I read it as _people who have lower anger, and people who have anxiety_ Am I broken? (I am a native English speaker but that doesn’t mean that I speak English correctly)

Oddly I watched it live on the Eurosport broadcast and didn’t hear any noticeable booing

This reminds me of OHRRPGCE

Whilst I ostensibly agree with the sentiment of the linked page, my personal experience is very different - my suspicion is due to the different technologies at play

I enjoy building little SaaS side hustles that one day (I can dream) might make me a couple of grand, but I don’t enjoy writing 20+ CRUD controllers, with matching validation, and HTML forms. I’m probably a bit neurospicy, and I have a young family, but before LLMs came along I might “finish” one SaaS every couple of years. I’ve been able to complete 3 so far this year. It’s a wild uptick in productivity.

I’m well aware of the dangers that come with it too, but having been in the mines churning out this code for the last couple of decades I feel well versed in what to prompt for, just as I would with a keen yet naive junior engineer. I’d also argue that LLMs are much better at enforcing a particular style on the code base. I feel strongly that with an opinionated framework, in a relatively simple language, solving repetitive simple problems - you’ll have a great time with LLMs and you’ll be more productive than ever.

The problems arise when we delegate jobs like writing READMEs or tests (the boring stuff, right?) without really getting into the weeds.

Whilst I dont want to defend the relatively low compensation for public-sector jobs in the UK, it is more nuanced than just salary.

In this case, it was actually a salary of £50,550 - £57,500, so total compensation of around £75k (circa $95k), as the pension scheme is in the order of 30% of your salary. Then there's the usual US vs UK medical cover and vacation allowances.

It's still a way off, but the gap is smaller than you think when you crunch all of the other benefits into a single number.

Does make me wonder what will happen to a lot of the Gas and Electricity Smart Meters that rely on 3G (will they fall back to 2G?)

Looks great, but you can’t scroll the currency select box on iPhone

Php and Laravel

https://bauns.net A dashboard for SES reporting, giving fine grained metrics rather than just a failure %

But also check it’s still valid, because revocations

Or better, an alert to check the cert is still valid

Like all US tax law?

With your ML background I'd probably focus on things like AWS Sagemaker and going from dev to prod in a sensible fashion.

Imagine if http APIs has similar output to lsof or df -h - nobody would write a script to use them! JSON makes a lot of sense, but a human-parseable format is also needed.

Isn't this the entire point of GDPR in the EU? To prevent corporations and individuals from using your personal data for any purpose other than for the reason your provided it.

Perhaps you should change your strategy? Personally, I use [email protected] as then I'll know the source, when I find my email address has been sold to a 3rf party

I have the same problem with Gitter.im or slack for FOSS projects - quite a few communities have switched from being fórum based (and therefore the conversations are logged and indexable by search engines), to being ephemeral conversations in Slack channels.

You could argue that IRC fits in the category of ephemeral platforms, but most large communities provide some form of indexable log of the conversations

OP here, I built this to scratch an itch, as I run a few other platforms that sent around 16000 emails per day, and SendGrid was getting pricey, but I couldn't get the granularity of reporting for my transactional emails with SES.

I could've built it into my existing platform, but fancied doing something different - and that's how I ended up with Bauns.

Personally, and I'd hope this is echoed by everyone:

I'd rather have less strawberries, that are more expensive, than have strawberries picked by someone who died as a result of contracting COVID-19 in a field whilst they were picking strawberries to earn money to feed themselves/their family.

Come back soon!

Somewhat important to note that its only the default in the US, India and a few other countries - presumably not the EU because of the whole Internet Explorer setting Bing as the default debacle a couple of years ago
