Nice, I was looking for something like this. I tried it on Ubuntu but after clicking Capture requests > Launch Chrome, nothing happens.

It seems very nice, I tried japanese because I'm studying it, but it got difficult too quickly. In particular japanese needs furigana absolutely (the hiragana over kanji) or romaji (options to be activated/deactivated).

Crazy nosense change. $100 is damn high and 10K tweets a month is damn low. Even if you were willing to pay, the amount of tweets is so low that it's in fact totally useless.

Yes I mean failure of the cron script itself. If the EC2 goes down entirely there are other alerts you can set up on AWS, such as Cloudwatch or similar.

I'm still using the old way: "crontab -e" inside the same EC2 where I run the app. In case of failure I automatically send an email to me. This is the easiest scenario in case you already have an EC2 for some other things that is already running. Instead, from scratch (no EC2), I'd probably use Lambda.

I thought I was a very tidy person, then I saw this.

That's smart move imho. Usually engineers and other people that worked at Twitter went through a very strict hiring process. So hiring them is equal (usually) to hiring very skilled and smart people.

This reminds me about Black Mirror's White Christmas episode where they create a digital clone inside a white "cookie" and then they use it for receiving tasks such as making toasts. This project is very similar actually. I found very interesting the part where you can track your food and automatically calculate the calories every day without writing anything anywhere.

The boosters landing will always give me goosebumps.

AMAZING.

You are good at what you love.

I got in 2016 the Xiaomi Mi Notebook Air for about ~750$ and I'm still using it today (Ubuntu 20). The design is the most similar to Mac design, but with more ports (:D). When I bought it, the other option I considered was Dell XPS, and I see it's mentioned many times in the comments.
