one-point-five-shotted a local node app for creating social posts. drawing from static pages (hey this exists) or new blog posts (timely). with copy/paste to x, and one click post to bluesky and mastodon, tag manager and stale/archive/reject/refresh options. An idea and a solution in about 10 minutes. Madness.

Great idea, implemented here! Thanks for the suggestion.

This is very welcome! I don't know how many times I had already tapped posts to go to the comment chain, just to realize that wasn't the place ^⁠_⁠^

Going to document some approaches to produce data visualizations using ari via DuckDB. Don’t know why it didn’t occur to me earlier, that there would be some solid community extensions for in DuckDB.

I was trying to use an approach that relies on community extensions, but installing them is proving finicky. Going to consider an approach that requires less futzing.

The live tab on the android app is interesting... How does it work? This is a test 🫣

Does it do some kind of polling? Is there some kind of notify like publisher subscriber? 🤔

replied to:

It’s using the /firehose endpoint. It’s an SSE endpoint publishing everything latest. Though I meant it to be used server-side, since it’s heavily rate-limited — up to 3 conns under the same network, but I can’t control how clients decide to use it so.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Might just lift the limitation.

Lifted, that’s how clients want to use it then so be it! Should be fine. We’re nowhere near crashing the server from connections.

I still remember Max getting sandwiched between the two Ferraris in the first ever wet night race (Singapore 2017). Today he finally managed to win a race there. That's quite a long wait.

Not sure if I put it on untappd but I still remember the "soggy" beer at the track that day 😄

Real bummer for about the price. I'm sure this is absolutely not what any of them wanted.

replied to:

Same with the Steam Machine. They could have been awesome offerings for a lot of different use cases, but alas, being able to generate memes with grandma's pictures is of the utmost importance...

It really makes me wonder how the consumer market will evolve as the months go. It's not looking too good.

Huge flaw in the static site generator I built. That's what you get I guess when you don't have a computer science degree and you build with only surface level knowledge. You get your ass bit!

I like this, it feels like Reddit before what it is now, but I feel like it won’t be long until the internet destroys this place. Until then I’m happy to be here.

It's really sad that this is such a common sentiment whenever there's a nice online community nowadays. Guess most of us have been burnt enough times by now

My favorite part of classic reddit was the use of elaborate hacks to circumvent the restrictions on custom subreddit CSS. E.g. animated gifs weren't allowed, so people made filmstrip sprites with stepwise animation in such a way as to look exactly the same.
