There's a Swedish company working on making electric region air travel a thing - a https://heartaerospace.com I don't see why this wouldn't be possible to do with smaller air craft.

I saw this same issue on MacOS... in Safari, so probably just a bug.

The problem with BlueSky is that they built something specific for Twitter like experiences. Nostr is much better positioned to take on these large platforms IMO. You can build pretty much any social experience on it. Here's a selectio

Using the average electricity produced is not the way to plan power production. I’m sure you’re aware that there are peak usage patterns as well as “wind droughts” resulting in situations where the power generated isn’t enough. You have to

It’s better than running it on a separate server but if you’re using Postgres you’re always hitting the network stack on the machine, with SQLite that isn’t the case.

I just mutate the data object when using SvelteKit. Blasphemy, I know. But it works, and it works well. :P

Why wouldn't you just use a Service Worker for this?

Start with Phoenix and add live_svelte when you need to. No need to juggle both at the same time when you're starting out.

Some things just end up being a better experience fully client-side. Don't go all in on it - just do it when it makes sense. Another thing I like about this is the ability to be able to use Svelte as a templating language rather than H

Relevant to the BTC story is this recent tweet by Bukele: https://twitter.com/nayibbukele/status/1768425845163503738 Looks like they have quite a stack compared to what people previously thought. There's also

Elixir + Phoenix (+ Svelte via live_svelte if you need very very real time stuff). Has everything you need and none of the BS that is the JS ecosystem. :)

Yes? Not seeing any issues on Safari, Chrome or Firefox on MacOS. Maybe you have some extension that's acting up?

It really isn't 'miles' ahead of the competition. If anything it is way behind. For example, look at Varjo: https://varjo.com/products/xr-4/

This is dope! Very cool to see more Nostr applications that aren't just Twitter clones.

Back when Svelte Native was created it was pretty much endores by the maintainers, there's even a channel for it on the official Svelte Discord :)

Not sure what you built but for anyone interested in going down this venue there's a blog post by a Svelte Ambassador that you can read here: https://khromov.se/how-i-published-a-gratitude-journaling-ap...

I have a hard time seeing how Bluesky/ATProto is more pragmatic than Nostr. Can you elaborate?

Most likely you’ll need to do accounting in the EU country since that is the de facto place of business (your office). That is in addition to whatever US accounting. Not ideal.

I feel like Meetup has always been a somewhat bad product. Stuck in the early 00's. When they started charging crazy amounts to organize a meetup I got sick of them. Recently we've been using https://guild.host to mana

Nah, it’s unnecessary- you can do everything in Kit, adding a pure backend would just add extra work for no reason. Kit is built for serverless so you won’t have any issues with scaling.
