What do we really know about the effectiveness of digital advertising? The effectiveness of online ads is easily measurable: Return on ad spend (ROAS) = (revenue from ad referrals) - (money spent on ads)

I use (and made) https://sumi.news - RSS, newsletter, and Twitter support. No subscription. Clean chronological feed, and a per-feed recent entry view.

I live by an understanding that almost all of my suffering is self-inflicted by craving for things to be different than they are. This craving has many types: Clinging to a self-identity and becoming unhappy when it is threatened or ignored

I think RSS is a way to read social media, it's not a replacement for social media. But that's a good thing! I just want to stay updated with blogs, forums, and social media – in one place. I built and use https://sum

I’ve updated to generate PDFs using embedded/vector text, so it supports copying, pasting, and parsing.

Good points. Thanks for the feedback.

by tofukid 5y ago
Yeah good point. I hope to change the text to vector/embedded font in the future.

No plans to open source it. If you want to make a PDF in the browser, look at using html2canvas to generate canvas from html, and passing that canvas to jspdf to make a PDF. I generate the canvas manually because html2canvas has some issues

I’ve used Haskell and Preact before. I love Haskell. I’ve arrived at this stack after a decade of developing webapps. The foundation to my approach is simplicity. I don’t have a JS build step at all (no npm, no transpiling, no bundling, etc

Author here. I made this using Haskell for the web server, and Preact for the JavaScript. The resume is converted to PDF by translating HTML into canvas and using JSPDF to turn the canvas into a PDF. Hosted on Linode. Cached with CloudFlare

I don’t think so. Do you have trouble accessing it? The whole thing is cached with CloudFlare.

In the future I might add multiple designs/templates.

by tofukid 5y ago
Thanks for the feedback. I think that’s a good point. One reason I have collapsible work/education is being able to reorder them.

It’s just a resume maker. Good to know that’s confusing, I’ll think about making the language more clear.

Do you mean generate it based on a LinkedIn profile? That’s something I may add in the future. I don’t use LinkedIn, I thought they already have a resume generator, is that true?

It is optional, if you start filling out the form it will go away until you add a photo. That’s not very clear though, so I’ll make it more obvious. Thanks for the feedback.

There’s a paid download option which has no watermark at the bottom of the resume.

Just PDF for now. I hope to offer Word format in the future.

I enjoy using Haskell, because of the type-safety, referential transparency, and stability of interfaces. I use Twain for HTTP server and routing + blaze-html for HTML + Selda for interfacing with SQL. I’ve built my last few projects this w

I use voip.ms and have SMS forwarded to my email. I can also reply via email. I only use a phone number for services that require one. Family and friends I will use email, iMessage, or Signal.

It translates to immigration policy. Plenty of people support freedom of immigration (note, immigration is not naturalization), a policy of letting people freely come to the US to live and work (as opposed to quotas, work permits, work requ
