I'm working on a feature to create fun timelapse videos of all the routes on the map. It should be released next week.

I'm open to any feedback.

Thanks. I wanted to focus on performance (native app), simplicity, and privacy.

I wanted to visualize all my walks and runs on a single map. I built a native iOS app that fetches Apple Health and Strava workouts and visualizes them. Privacy was a major factor in building the app, so all the data stays on the device. Next version will have a time-lapse video option. Any feedback welcome.

Offline support already works in the Brave app. I've been testing it last couple of weeks.

What would be the benefit of this vs Chrome/Brave app and how does the memory consumption compare?

Theoretically LLMs should perform better for languages/frameworks that are older and changed less frequently. Framework examples would be Django and Rails. I'd suspect they would do much worse with recent JS frameworks.

I recently started using Arq Backup to replace Time Machine. It does the local backup to an external SSD and cloud back up to Cloudflare R2. I'm happy so far.

Re:Django 4.2 Released on Monday April 03, 2023 @03:45PM (#35430160)
The old paradigm is new again. Combining Django with HTMX, you get the simplicity of rendering HTML on the server side and not deal with bloated and over-engineered Javascript frameworks. Flask/Django with HTMX and Tailwindcss is a fantastic combination and my current preferred stack. I also add Alpinejs to this mix for interactivity. Really enjoying the heightened productivity that this setup provides.

If Excel is really required, I'd also suggest reaching out to Microsoft Turkey directly. They already announced help efforts for the affected region and people (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/leventozbilgin_%C3%BClke-olar...)

Re:When will signal support signing up without a phone number? on Tuesday March 21, 2023 @08:12PM (#35254766)
It doesn't look like they'll get rid of the phone number requirement to sign up. However, they will enable usernames soon (probably within a few months). This will give you the option to hide your phone number if you want. Here's a demo from someone who compiled that branch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g81mBMGw6fo
