    Thanks for sharing! I use Fireabse Hosting, which I guess gets grouped in with the other services you mentioned. It's free, has a lightweight devX, and integrates with CI via GitHu…

    Oh cool, I see. Didn't get that impression when I first looked. I will check it out!

    Thanks for the link. I prefer the simplicity of .mdx files for now. My use case is very basic and Astro already handles it well.

    I felt the same way! But I came around. Take a look at the source code for a component [1]. The .astro format is pretty much just TS, CSS, and HTML. I don't even need React anymore…

    Me too! The closer my framework is to raw HTML, JavaScript (really TypeScript nowadays), and CSS, the less lock-in I feel. Those 3 languages are continue to get better year over ye…

    Astro is what I wanted and thought Gatsby would be. GraphQL was the wrong sized abstraction for a basic blog site like mine. And once Gatsby turned towards the cloud (which made se…

    Yeah they really nailed the developer experience. There is very little magic to it.

    My script has been broken since February 2021 :( Documentation on the data source (with links to old data dumps) is on GitHub: https://github.com/jwngr/sdow/blob/master/docs/data-s…

    Creator here. Glad that HN rediscovered my old side project. All the code is freely available on GitHub [1]. It's running on a tiny f1-micro GCE instance which is currently down du…

    Email is the perfect tool for these new LLMs - most of us have years, even decades, of our writing and important information in our email archives. Now that we have AI which can un…

    Despite adding some AI features, we are definitely still focused on the core triage and workflow of getting through your inbox. We've launched a bunch of other stuff already this y…
