When I moved to herdr I specifically looked for a donate / purchase button on their website and it wasn't anywhere to be found (at least in a prominent location). I gladly donate /…

Really happy to hear this. I was tinkering with Dagger soon before the pivot to AI, and assumed this would not be solving my CI woes anytime soon. Focusing on CI would still enable…

> mayflies debating politics Well said to that person. I think about this a lot, and have wondered if it's the advent of code school? Which itself was a result of the insane FAANG …

Love audiobookshelf! Though I've struggled to find good copies of audiobooks that aren't ~$50...

Sounds like you've got it figured out then. Best of luck!

My broader point is that if you want to build a business there's a ton of opportunity if you're not overly picky on what that opportunity looks like. B2B, B2C, mobile, web, node, P…

I respectfully disagree that there’s no business opportunity that people are willing to pay for. If your only target are developers or the tech industry, maybe, but there’s a whole…

Totally with you. If the plumber in my neighborhood can start a business with all their overhead, then why can’t I on a $5/mo Digital Ocean server? It really comes down to being wi…

Or, you know, build a business that customers are willing to pay for… Spend less than you earn. Maybe get an SMB loan if the numbers work. This approach is older than the tech indu…

Can you say more about your LinkedIn approach? Are you posting content or cold outreach? Something else?

That's my understanding as well. Definitely will follow this, I was really disappointed when Maps.Me started getting enshittified. Hope it doesn't happen to Organic Maps as well.

Yep, I do. It's a baseline expectation in my experience when working within less technical industries.

Can you tell me more about your Portainer setup? Does it just update your app from an image or is it checking out code from a git repo on deploy? This approach sounds very interest…

> Axiom 2: You’re optimizing over a business, not over a codebase. Well said. Ultimately I think this is where much of the communication breakdown occurs when discussing Framework …

Sorry for your friend, but this is what you call anecdotal evidence.

Do you have an example? I’d love to learn more!

Fully agreed on all counts! > ...but even zoomers are not tech savvy these days. Though I would actually challenge this. The idea I'm (slowly) building out deals with owners of a s…

IMO many viable niches are not being discussed online at all. I’ve recently stumbled on an exciting niche that’s showing a lot of traction. The customers know very well how to use …

I think this mindset is vastly more harmful than an open source resume builder.

True - but I’ll choose to err on the side of being sad about the loss of life even if I don’t know all the details.

You absolutely can - so long as you don't get other people killed in the process. The CEO of this company convinced customers to join him on his death march, which IMO is a worth c…

Completely agree. I honestly always thought Django Templates mostly were Jinja2, until I looked more closely and realized how wrong I was. Since then I exclusively use Jinja2 in my…

FYI I get a security error when going to the https of your site. I get an Apache message when going to http. Can't wait to check it out though once it's up!

I don't code in any of these platforms, so I'm asking genuinely. When this community talks about cross-platform desktop applications, they typically mean Electron, Tauri, or other …

Amen. Mild weather + usually gray > extreme weather + usually sunny. Though I'd never fault someone for making different decisions. The fire season of the past few years are changi…
