Whilst not PSD2/PSD3, I've been super happy with Wise; an excellent API, good quality docs. A _proper_ test environment that you can drive using hooks they expose. Nothing but praise for them, including their support, which has helped me around the clock even on weird questions such as why my custom integration fails to send a transaction (mismatched currency between recipient and transfer in my code).

For me the nail in the coffin will come in 2027Q1: with CodeWithMe going away. Until then, the quality of editing code remotely together with the mostly clean refactoring and navigation options is a deal breaker.

If anyone has something roadmapped to replace CodeWithMe, it's worth bucks.

What about an alternative business model, pay-per-date? There's an application in NL that charges €7.50 to arrange a dinner, disallowing chat until 2 hours before the arranged date for practicalities. They partner with restaurants and you each get a 'free' (you paid for it..) drink; but with the commitment that your date also paid for it and will therefore show up.

This removes a lot of the meat-grading and endless swiping; with the platform prompting you why you're not working to scheduling your existing matches. Whilst I have no experience with the absence of any scheduled matches, this gives the platform insight into whether you're a worthy date (remember, each date is profit!).

One date on tinder/hinge/bumble in a 5+ years to a finding my partner in a few months. Paying for the actual date experience was so much less and so much more fun than the footing the subscription on the other platforms - even accounting for the cost of food.

Echo'ing similar interest with a similar scenario; but would also be much interested in other forms of media, such as screencasts or demo projects with an accompanying show-case document.

Reading the release notes of the sdk and/or the MSDN pages used to be a great resource, and probably still is, but it's difficult to find new gems.

I concur. There was supposedly a migration path from their postgresql image & chart to the postgresql-ha image & chart.

Aside of having to re-mount the data disk and move things around manually; the -ha chart has numerous other issues where it always requires the master to be node-0. And with pods being rescheduled within a statefulset, good look having the master be on node-0. If there was an outage and the master is anywhere else, node-0 will just 'wait' for a master to come online, time out and shoot itself in the head thinking it is in a network partition and that retrying may help.

The algorithm implemented by postgresql-ha turned out to be plain broken. Only able to survive pods neatly shutting down.

I wonder what your experience is with Sentry? Not just for error reporting but especially also their support for traces.

Also open-source & self-hostable.

I find this hard-to-find official documentation so much easier to read: https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubernetes-ap...

In my opinion, it comes with better navigation, safe to open in new tabs to drill-deep and unwind when done, much better use of horizontal space. Even though it is generated, I looks to have much of the exact same text?

Viewing this page (with the HDR element) resets my cursor to the bottom left. Also triggers this behavior when changing brightness whilst the HDR element is visible on screen. Anyone have a similar experience? On MacBook Air (M1, 2020).

That worked by using the preinstall check that Installer.app invokes to do the installation. It would finish by force quitting Installer.

The latency on twitch has been around 4 seconds or 30 seconds. I believe their low-latency doesn’t get quite close to being nu able to collaborate.

I face this same situation too. Grew up with pass it down things for clothes, toys and everything. Didn’t have a phone until 2011; we simply lived a life in which we didn't develop a need. Now that I have one some parts of my life are happier, others are more grim..

Now I find myself not knowing how to shop for clothes, I wore what fit. Difficulty to find entertainment, we helped around the house as parents were working more to come around.

Now I try saying yes. Someone wants to try wakeboarding, climbing, you-name-it? I’ll set up for an instructor and rental gear. Someone likes a theater show, I’ll buy an extra ticket. A friend of mine had a hard drive breakdown, did some tinkering and couldn’t recover it myself. I made them a gift that teaches how to do backups, with the equipment to do so. Essentially just a new external drive and some instructions to use the OS included software to backup, so it wouldn’t happen again. This included a platter-for-platter recovery of all the pictures that surprised her after the slightly salty thou-shall-do-backups rubbing.

Hardest thing for me is to replace broken things. 'They work fine', but I spend three times as long doing the thing. Admittedly, it's a thing I like so I don't mind spending the extra time, hehe, but a partner in life might not find the same enjoyment of using the broken thing. Avoid becoming angry because you failed to get something done within one rental-unit, it's not worth to be angry for.

Being at home(s) tends to be cheaper than being outside home(s). With you raising this concern, try to avoid thinking whether something is worth it before giving it a try. It’s okay to be impulse driven, you will learn from an experience. Do what makes you happy, being at home is totally fine. :-)

I now focus much more on experiences (let's go wakeboarding!) instead of objects/belongings (new phone w/ airpods). I find experiences make more than just myself happy and that makes me even happier! :D

A lot of applications centralize their logo in a QR code, obscuring a significant chunk. Yet the code scans fine and there is some nice custom recognizability for which service it is.

This somewhat painfully breaks when reattaching as the socket from the shells environment could be defunct. Whereas the shell session outside has a different, totally fine agent in its environment. This was somewhat painful to explain to some engineers and I suck at explaining so I’ll gladly receive a good explanation for it (or a nice workaround?) :D
