We made the first CLI for event ticketing and operations
Super excited to announce our Ticket Fairy 3.0 platform. We've been working on this for years. AI agents, embedded banking, credit, enterprise full-stack software for event marketing, ticketing, ops and more.
Our new dashboard rolled out officially today and all of the 3.0 features will be rolling out over the coming days and weeks. There are a LOT of them!

We learned this a few years ago when clients starting using emojis when saving their content and it got truncated. Very quickly converted everything to utf8mb4!

I could just never get used to Ruby syntax and how wordy it is.
PHP/C/perl-style syntax just feels much nicer/more natural to write and I've never been able to break out of that.
I guess it comes down to personal preference and what you started coding with.
We changed our tables to utf8mb4 specifically for emoji support
If you know anything about cameras and low light photography, the sensor shift OIS is a HUGE deal, especially combined with an f/1.6 lens. Instant purchase!
Is there a reason for a 10 minute cache duration? Even 1 minute would be fine from a performance point of view
Noticed this recently when doing an ES6 course. So many additions look similar to modern PHP!
It only tracks if the Zoom window has focus, not via facial recognition. How is that bad?
Sounds like missing indexes to me if outages are that frequent.

It depends on the region but it can be as high as 30% from what I've read
I say eee gee and eye eee for e.g. and i.e. when reading those out loud. Doesn't everyone?
I would say that development of JSON fields in Postgres and MySQL was accelerated by the adoption of Mongo.
Speed to market/first version using JSON stores is attractive, especially when you're still prototyping your product and won't have an idea of exact data structures until there's been some real world usage.

This site is really well made! Nice job!
Pretty sure that's because in some cities the driver is dispatched by a local car company and the driver works for them, not Uber. I've seen that in a few places.
