    I've had to locally override some JS on the client-side and hoped their backend validation was a lot more sane. The frontend validation logic was limiting the TLD to minimum of two…

    If you're working with Python projects and Virtualenv then this is a great alias to have (assuming you call it venv ): alias venv=". venv/bin/activate" Just cd to a project root an…

    If by application database you mean to the level of an RDBMS then no. It's a key-value data store. You get your CRUD operations, expiry, key listing and the ability to do paginatio…

    This is great! I've always been interested in video related products and services and you've done a pretty good job on getting the annotations overlay the video. > I switched away …

    I built something similar that might work depending on your use case and doesn't require installing an extension. Check out https://tagx.io/ However, it doesn't overlay any annotat…

    Cloudflare Workers and their KV service ( https://www.cloudflare.com/products/workers-kv/ ) is great. I built a side project ( https://tagx.io/ ) completely on their services from …

    It did cross my mind when I released it. I'd like to refactor the code and bring in more tests to make it "contributor friendly" first. Feedback has been great so far and I'll be i…

    These are pretty good use cases, thanks! I hadn't thought of it in a political context, I can definitely see it work there considering the lengthy footage.

    This is the same tagged video I shared in my previous post but without the need for any server-side requests and you can amend yourself: https://tagx.io/video/youtube/7-31KgImGgU/5…
