He's in a nice position in that he's diversified his content with a game show and podcast, so he can stop his main channel content and still have some income flowing. That gives him time to take a step back and re-invent himself i

Which is interesting because he graduated with a degree in linguistics, so it's something he understands quite well.

I think you're talking mostly about Heroku being a managed service while Fly Postgres is unmanaged. It sounds like the new managed Postgres in partnership with Supabase is managed in a similar way where Supabase would handle health che

If I'm understanding correctly, Fly Postgres isn't too different from something like Postgres on Heroku? It's a single instance/cluster in a single location.

This seems fair. It sounds like they were essentially giving part of their hosted service away for free to self-hosted users.

I understand the neatness of fly.io's distributed VMs. Can someone explain how Fly Postgres is different than a traditional managed Postgres on something like Heroku.

If you can query for the flashcards once and save it on device, that would cut down your reads quite a bit and make your app work offline.

50k users accessing 1M records is actually not a very big number from a scaling point of view. Use whatever tech you know best and feel more comfortable using.

I enjoy writing software a lot but I don't enjoy doing it as part of a large team. I'm currently exploring doing part time contract work as well as working on a side project. I really enjoy both. I'm making less money than I

What do you consider a good use of your free time? Don't forget that we humans need things like relaxing and even occasionally just doing nothing to be healthy. I have a suspicion that some of the things you're considering a bad u

I hate my Samsung too. I can sit on the remote and it closes what I'm watching and takes me to the home screen. For some reason I then have to scroll past 12 built in apps I've never used to get back to HDMI #1.

I use the Roadmap page template in Notion. I basically use it like Trello. I create issues for each idea I have and occasionally prioritize them into the next few things to do.

It's really sad seeing startups get purchased just for a core piece of tech or for one of their teams. And 90% of the time, it never goes anywhere anyway so it just ends up destroying the startup for no reason. On the other hand, as a

This problem can be solved with a bit of money. There are freelancing coops and such who have the power to buy good insurance as a group. You just need to be willing to spend $10k or whatever per year on it.

The best escape hatch I've seen for this kind of organizational issue is UpWork. You get UpWork approved as a vendor, then you can spend your own department's budget hiring whatever random contractor you need. Yeah you might spend

I don't know if they've improved it, but 5 years ago I basically couldn't delete a DO Space because they had no way of doing a mass deletion. I even got technical support who basically told me I was doing it the best way poss

I looked at these at RayBan the other day. They're pretty cool especially for the price, but requiring a Meta account and Meta app ruined it for me.

Fear is usually based in an abstract concern. Try to make it more concrete. What are you actually afraid of? For example, you're probably not actually afraid of losing your job, but losing your paycheck. But you're not actually af

I've tried all the major pet trackers. Most of them are too big for cats. Many of them are just Bluetooth which doesn't help at all when your cat gets far away. The better ones have Bluetooth, wifi, LTE, and GPS. The ones with mor

Electronics is really broad. What are you looking to get into and at what complexity level? Controlling an LED strip with an Arduino library is very different from designing a custom RF solution.

Glad to see you chime in here. Just curious, is Arduino setup so that the community could takeover if you did somehow go pure enterprise and abandon hobbyists? If I recall, things are pretty open source.
