   Thanks Michael and congrats on all of the success with TinyPilot. It's nice to hear this from the perspective of someone who was on the show. I tried to make the story about going from development to production but it is for sure super

   Hi, thanks a lot. Yep transcripts were on my list to include but there is a decent cost to get accurate human vetted transcripts for ~6 hours of (2) speaker audio content per week. There are semi-automated free tools but the accuracy is poo

   Thanks a lot. I'm seeing a trend in quite a few comments that are leading me to see that the titles can be much approved upon. That one does read a lot like an ad. For most titles I tried to lead with the service name plus what they do

   Hey, thanks a lot for mentioning the show! You know, your thought process is identical to mine on this subject haha. That's why I started the show. It felt like it was filling a void around a bunch of deployment topics.

   It's possible. I'm similar to you in that I much prefer video podcasts. That might be due to almost always listening to episodes in front of my computer with full attention. I kind of like to avoid all forms of tech when I'm

   Thanks. Which episode did you randomly click into and which part was interesting to you? I'm only asking because that could help guide me into creating better titles.

   I haven't tried running paid ads for anything I've released (I also blog and make weekly YouTube videos). The show costs at least 6 hours of personal time per episode which translates to a Saturday or Sunday. There's also hos

    Thanks. I said yes to every single person who requested to be on the show. The hard part for this style of podcast is finding a constant stream of guests. Often times you have no idea how a person is going to react on a call until you'

    Thanks. That's sound advice. You bring up a good point. I did try to make the titles kind of short (none of them are > 70 characters) while always trying to include the service name and the core idea of what the service does. But a

    Thanks. There are dates at the bottom of each episode btw. The last episode was from about a year ago. Promotion wise I tried to organically promote it. Basically if I read a comment on HN or a few sub-reddits I'd leave a non-spammy re

    This is certainly interesting. I've been using DO for something like 8 years and I really like them. I don't plan to switch but Hetzner offers a CPU optimized server with 4 CPU cores and 8 GB of memory for $17 USD / month. Di

    This is also one of my favorite books. As someone who grew up playing Quake this book has one of the best possible combinations of material combined into 1 book (business, life stories, relatable games, nostalgia, etc.).

    The video goes into the pros and cons. Pros (for not using DD): - You use less resources since you don't need a separate DD app running - It's more close to the experience you'd have on a production server which wou

    If you can run WSL 2 then you can use this method. I personally run Windows 10 Pro which does have Hyper-V enabled (I use Hyper-V for standalone VMs unrelated to Docker) so I can't disable it to check for you but I'd say I'm

    Thanks. I had looked at that reference originally too but it does a lot of things unrelated to running Docker on WSL 2 and overcomplicates running Docker. Realistically getting Docker to run on WSL 2 involves running a few standard install
