I feel the article could have ended after Step 1. It makes the point that you don’t have to follow REST and can build your own session-dependent API endpoints, and use them to fetch data from a component. I don’t see a point in making that

Only when seeing “4 months ago” in the post that I’ve let my April Fools guard down. It would have been a quite bold April Fools though, the entire network is read-only for the duration of the business day.

All of this is a ridiculous amount of work/red tape for an app that never will make a single cent (my case). I guess we have to read that as virtue signaling: if you aren’t here to make money, go away. Interestingly, they choose a quit

This is only applicable if you are making money with your App (either paid or IAP). Free apps don’t have that requirement on Apple’s store.

You are required to send proof for the address, meaning you can only change to another place that you can claim your own. In Sweden, we have a public registry for personal addresses, and that’s the only one Google accepts.

There are some resources that have an always-free tier, like DynamoDB, SNS, Lambdas, etc. Check out https://aws.amazon.com/free/ You’ll still need a Credit Card on file for overages.

People don’t pick a stack for their personal projects solely because it’s the most rational for their use case, but also to gather experience in said stack, so they can stay up-to-date or gather the experience to work in places that using t

If you don’t, eventually your VP will hear that you are lacking such tool that they will tell you to deal with vendors X and Y, even if they don’t fix your problem. At least by proactively going after it, you can pick vendor Z, which despit

Hetzner is actually worse. Current EU directives allow liability shift in online payment when the customer is authenticated via 3D Secure, meaning the risk is extremely low and the onus of proving the fraud is on the card owner. Yet Hetzner

I understand that and I’m all ears for suggestions! AFAIK I’m the only user, and our household doesn’t have issues with that. We also don’t have complete recipes, because we are pretty decent with cooking and coming up with stuff, so the ma

I had a stab at fixing the mismatch between fridge and database by allowing you to exclude recipes with a particular ingredient. Surely this type of filter can be incorporated into other recipe apps. Check out the demo video in the README:

I solved this problem with a different approach: computer tells you what to cook, period. It allows some variation given you might not have all the ingredients at home, but that’s about it. I made a AGPL project out of it, been using it for

That only holds true if you are able to use that free time. If you deliver things faster and just get assigned a new project sooner, you paid your employer to do work.

I’d do that if that benefitted me. What do I get if I deliver the project earlier? The 2 weeks that I delivered it earlier because I already had root in my machine vs waiting for IT, do I get to take those as vacation, or I’ll just be assig
