They have written their own UI framework. Probably the reason they are biased against other frameworks

> there's probably microscopic fecal particles on every surface in there. And there's no way your phone is making it out unscathed.

Precisely the reason I stopped using phone in the toilet.

Run it on Raspberry Pi. It brings down electric consumption significantly.

>Self-hosting stuff is awesome if you have the skills.

>I have been on a mission for the last 2 years to replace as many subscriptions as possible with self-hosted solutions.

I have been doing the same for quite some time now but it's only recently I realized all these subscriptions services are just making rich richer. We should encourage self hosting as much as possible. I mean why should we pay huge corporations more money just for storage?

Humanity has tendency to do things wrong and then decades later realize that what we were doing was awful to the planet.

Do you mean my dog or other animals are responsible for this? Humans are the only species that are capable of modifying the environment.

I don't necessarily agree with GP's comment but they do have a valid point.

> We could solve this problem in a few years with technology if we really wanted to.

Everybody wants to solve the problem with technology. What if, the solution is just plain old hard work like planting trees, conservation, better recycling, better laws that help in saving ecosystem. But who would do that. So let's keep on creating problems with technology and then solve them with more technology.

This is behind paywall

To be fair podlet functionalities don't require constant updates which is not true in case of podman compose.

Podlet is a helper. In the long run its better to work with quadlets.

Thank you this makes it so much better!

I build simple applications for personal use like issue tracker, day planner, etc,. By default if you ask Claude it will generate React for frontend but I ask it to use HTML/CSS/JS instead. Because as a backend developer that makes sense to me. I find it hard to read the react code and want to avoid having dependency on npm.

It's surprising how well the core technology works without fancy front end frameworks. Claude does most of the grunt work related to CSS/JS allowing me to focus on more interesting things. I only have to do few minor changes here and there which I am happy to do.

I am a Dvorak user and this happens to me too. I thought it happens when I'm stressed out.

It's crazy how many people just read the headline and choose to comment or upvote these links.

Also, why the title is not same as the article? It makes no sense.

Manus = माणुस in Marathi which means Man

Didn't realise you were OP!

You mentioned you have been developing Indie products since 2005 in your about section. Can I read about this somewhere?

> Then you don't have to spend time messing around with things like OAuth and authentication, you can just write the application.

It sounds good but in reality people end up spending time messing around with config files and annotations.

> It’s breaking free from the heavyweight framework ecosystem that the JVM all but forces on you.

> No config files, no annotation magic, just composition, testability, and code small enough to hold in your head.

This. When I look at code I should just be able to follow it and know what's happening. The whole annotation magic and config files makes it hard to understand the flow of things.

I think people who want to view ideas should pay instead of people who submit ideas.

Search for podlet. It lets you do what you want.

I am using actual budget (which is free and open source) for this exact use case. It won't notify you but it has dashboard that can show you how you are spending

Podman supports kubernetes YAML or the quadlets option. It's fairly easy to convert docker-compose to one of these.

Nowaday I just ask genAI to convert docker-compose to one of the above options and it almost always works.

And this was one of the reason why I switched to Podman. I haven't looked back since.

It's not just suggestions. On mobile front page they are showing suggestions of what people are searching without even typing word

A lot of Software developers create something which is successful to some extent. They take this minor success very seriously and want to continue working on it for rest of their lives. They don't believe in their own ability to create another successful product. Also like everyone else they don't like to work from 9 to 5. So they enable subscription for what trivial problem they have solved. The problem with this approach is sooner or later people figure out that they don't need subscription for the service. And they will move on to something else that works for time being.

The thing is we as Software developers need to be honest with ourselves and really think about pricing. The product should be priced as per the effort and time it took to develop. If application needs maintenance then charge it separately. The customer should not have to pay for your life choices.

I see so many startups which create something trivial and then build an entire company around it. There are entire companies built around service like url shortener or service where you can aggregate all you social profile link and then put it in bio of Instagram. These companies might be successful today but the problem they solve is so trivial that anyone else can topple them with a self hosted solution or reasonable pricing.

For the love of God don't make your customers pay for how you want to live your Life.
