I know this is quite the controversial idea. But I'd personally love a fee per app, just to counter spam, say 100usd/app.

Couple things to defend the Y. You can adjust the volume from the steering wheel, I do that all the time. And when it comes to the glovebox, it has very little storage, most storage is in the center console, so the glovebox is good to use to store important stuff that you rarely need so the extra security to now have an easy entry to it is fine.

And coming from a Toyota Avensis, the suspension in the Y is way way better.

Mine's reading temperature, humidity and pressure from sensors and uploading it to a VPS. My second one that is, my first one hasn't done more than collect dust.

Damn so many negative comments here. I think it looks decent, and will probably try it out, paying $10/user/month for something as simple as an issue tracker is annoying. I get that bigger organizations have more feature requirements, but for many companies, we just need a simple issue tracker that's not jira (very biased against jira from my experience, but it's probably gotten better)

Seem very country dependent. I just checked and a rav4 with awd and lane assist (to try to match it to the LR AWD model y) cost ~3k more over here (58k vs 55k euros)

These are Finland prices. I just checked now the cheapest new awd rav4, and it's 55k (to compare to the LR AWD Moldel Y). But then it you want lane assist, you need another trim level and it'll go up to closer 59k. The model y is 55k.

Although the purchase price is higher, lifetime is not much different.

And the Model Y is cheaper than the Toyota Rav4 which is in the same category. So cheaper purchase price, and no annual oil changes, cheap miles (at least over in Finland where gas is 2e/liter, 8.14usd/gallon and electricity is around 10euro cents/kwh).

Have you tried co-pilot? I don't want to code without it. Saves so much time and produces good results, instead of searching for answers online, which isn't easy as you get into ad filled sites, find shitty Stack Overflow answers and webpages with outdated docs and examples.

Two examples from this week. Formatting dates in javascript, I had a datetime string and I wanted to show it as YY-MM-DD HH:MM for our internal tool. I don't know by heart exactly what to in this case although it's far from rocket science, so now I could write a comment what I wanted done and copilot coded it for me.

Same when I wanted a request to become a file download for the user, not something I've done many times before, and I could kinda reason that it probably needs the header to be set to something. And googling for this didn't give good results, yo need the right language, framework etc. With copilot I just wrote the comment // return file as download, and co-pilot wrote the code to set the header and send the bytes. Amazing!

It's been down for over three hours now. Has that ever happened to AWS S3?

Yup! 100%

Yeah this is awesome for indiedevs. Maybe a great tool to do these marketing pages, pre-product development, to see what has appeal.

What GUI are you referring to? Midjourney did all images on the page, ChatGPT did all the text (except stuff like the copyright label I addeed to make it look more 'real'). But I did the webpage, that's manual vue & tailwindcss work on my part.

Hey guys! This weekend I wanted to experiment if I could create a webpage that looks like it's for an actual game, but it's all be faked with MidJourney & ChatGPT. I think the end result turned out quite well!

I had ChatGPT come up with the name, some unique selling points and have it fill in all text (with human editing, removing unnecessary text, to make it all fit well). All images are made with MidJourney. However, the logo is done manually in Photoshop, couldn't get any decent results from MidJourney.

This took around 5 hours to make, most time spent on laying out the website to look decent on desktop and mobile.

Hope you enjoy it!
