To be clear - I didn't create this app, but I do think it's cool that good open source alternatives are emerging and felt like this might be interesting to the community

One of my Heroku apps is down, and seems to have gone down immediately after a scheduled daily restart. The others all work, and I can still access my database directly. Kinda fun trying to reverse engineer what's going on with the limited information we have!

This seems like a really big deal! It affects NextJS 15, even if the codebase isn't using Server Components, has a CVSS vulnerability score of 10/10, and there are known exploits in the wild. Can't see this doing wonders to the reputation of React Server Components.

I would argue that you are still buying peace of mind by hosting on AWS, even when there are outages. This outage is front page news around the world, so it's not as much of a shock if your company's website goes down at the same time.

It’s been repeated a lot in this discussion, but don’t loose hope. I had a very similar situation and for a while felt like I might not be able to keep living with this condition. A few months later I suddenly realized that I wasn’t thinking about it anymore, and then I had to start straining to notice it. The brain does adapt over time

I’ve also noticed that younger people seem to wear earplugs at concerts a lot more often. I get the feeling there’s been a change in attitude towards hearing protection. My guess is that instagram ads for earplugs and AirPod hearing health features have had something to do with it

Thanks! My brother and I are quite touched by the reaction in this thread. I will see what I can do about this - if not as a product, then by sharing a little more about what we have done and how it has worked so far

As my brother said, this is a really tricky area for us to explore for non-technical reasons. We go back and fourth on this, as I do believe my grandmother's quality of life would improve dramatically if this could be done well. For now, we've decided not to explore this, but I think it makes more sense to build personalized AI assistants for people who do not yet have dementia but who are concerned they may in the future

Hi unixhero! We forward all calls to our home number to a Twilio number. We then use Twilio studio to forward calls from my grandmother to a web-based call handler that we created, and all other calls are forwarded to my dad's cell phone. I pasted an image of the twilio flow in another comment if you are curious!

Congratulations on creating trailrouter! This is one of the most unique and useful side projects I’ve seen in quite a while. I had a lot of fun looking at the various suggestions it offered for my neighbourhood, and I could see how this could help people enjoy their neighborhood a lot more.

If you have the time, I’d also love to read a blog post (or even series) explaining how you built this. Your answer on the Graphhopper forum was very clear and makes me think that a more detailed version could be super useful for a lot of people.

Nice work!

I’m in a very similar situation with the OP-Z! No musical background, bought it because I was curious about the UI. I find myself getting sucked into it for hours at a time, even though I haven’t yet made a beat I’d be comfortable sharing.

My original plan was to sell the OP-Z after a few months, but now I think I will hold onto this thing until it dies.
