Love me some good old synchronous code! :D

Yeah. I talked about this in another reply but I’ve had mostly web development experience over the past few years and UI work is familiar. I didn’t love the idea of having the entire tech stack being unfamiliar. (I’m already new to Rust and

My thought process was, if I’m gonna have to rewrite the app, I may as well use the web dev skills I already have, so that at least the UI work will be in my wheelhouse. Rust is new to me, as is low-level ffmpeg stuff, both of which I’ve ha

Yeah I looked at it briefly but the lack of usage was a bit of a worry. And if I’m honest I really wanted a chance to use Svelte :)

It works great with Tailwind, I’m doing that in a project right now. I haven’t tried pairing Svelte with LiveView and I’d worry they would end up fighting over elements of the page, but I’d think you could have them control separate parts o

Yeah, rewriting it with Electron + Svelte + a Rust backend for the heavy lifting. I looked at alternatives to Electron because I wanted to avoid the bloat, but nothing felt like the right fit. Tauri ( https://tauri.studio/ )

This seems like a giant leap forward for Svelte. I'm excited to see where it leads. I've been using Svelte for the UI on a cross-platform video editor (with the backend in Rust). Svelte has been a joy to use, especially the Stores

This seems like a huge positive step forward for Svelte and the community. Big congrats to Rich! I've been excited about Svelte for a while and recently chose to use it as the UI for a cross-platform video editing app ( https:/&#x

I’ve been using NAPI-RS and I like it a lot so far. The feature that caused me to switch was callbacks - specifically, I wanted to pass a JS callback to Rust, and have Rust call it repeatedly. I couldn’t figure out how to do that with Neon,

In lazygit you can hit lowercase 'c' to bring up that one-line commit prompt, but you can also hit capital 'C' to open the commit message in your $EDITOR and write out a detailed commit message.

For Elixir specifically, I found this post from my friend Matt to be a big help when I was deploying my first app. The Phoenix docs section on deployment were also useful. https://amattn.com/p/deploying_elixir_phoenix_w

I’ve recently started down the rabbit hole of building a video player + editor from scratch and this feels so relatable! Lots of stumbling around, reading scarce and outdated resources, and finding that really not many people have written a

Mostly niche stuff, and for me it’s been places I visit while I’m interested in a topic, but then stop visiting once I’m done. The johnbridge.com tile forum was an immensely useful resource when I was tiling my kitchen floor. The tdpri.com

In earlier versions of Elixir where you had to explicitly add the libraries as additional processes to start, I remember being very confused why things like e.g. an HTTP client needed its own process. To be honest I still felt a little unea

This stuff all falls under the umbrella of “design”. One thing that helped me a ton was the articles at https://learnui.design - especially the 2-part “Rules for Designing Gorgeous UI”. The course itself is also excellent.

Maybe there's an opportunity here for some kind of buffering service that would receive webhooks and present them as a stream of events. Or maybe something like this already exists?

Interesting! I'm running Big Sur too, 11.4. Weird. Maybe I need to refresh my Apple login or something.

I saw that the dosdude patchers were downloading those (or similar) .sucatalog files but they're pretty large and I had trouble figuring out which URLs in there corresponded to the OS installers I needed, or whether the installer was m

A few years ago I found a book which is basically this, called You Are Your Own Gym. It's full of body weight exercises, plus a 10-week program built on these exercises. It seemed like it was written for exactly me -- someone who doesn

I had this same problem with making screencasts! Ended up building a Mac app [0] to do basically this, find the silence and chop it out. I started off with a script too but realized I wanted more control over the timing, and the ability to

Autocomplete is super annoying for this. I ended up setting up a separate Chrome profile for screencasting, but you can also use Guest mode. Either way will give you a separate history, no autocomplete, and no extensions cluttering up the m

That's an interesting idea! Right now it lets you preview either the original file, or with the silence cut out (and you can quickly toggle between those). I guess this could be a third state, to only play back the cuts. For my own wor

Great! I'd love to hear what you think, whether it fits your workflow or if there are missing pieces that you'd need. Contact info is in my profile if you're open to a chat!

Good thought! LTT was a big help when I was building a PC for the first time in years. Might see if he has any interest in trying it out.
