Congrats on launching! I love the design and the clever loading messages ("Harambe would love this"). Do you plan to support an export option if I want to self-host?


You can already backup your site as either static files or the original "tipsio" files.


Cool product! This particular bit may benefit from some more emphasis on the site. It was the first question I had too. Having this freedom to export makes me even more inclined to use the product so thanks for adding it in.


Very useful, I did not see this right away. Thanks!


Love it - I knew /about and /now but /ideas is new to me. I am adding this to my site as well.

Do you filter results based on last update?


Yep at least the /ideas pages that turn up on the page load are sorted by recency. You can also see the most recent /now pages by clicking the filter icon next to the search bar and selecting /now.

And we re-scrape all indexed pages every few days.

For now the search is purely sorted by relevancy (keyword + embeddings), but it yes would be nice to prioritise recent posts somehow. Since those are much more actionable.


And to clarify, we made up the /ideas thing. But IMO it makes so much sense since /about and /now are about the past & present.

Because where else do you write about the future?


The only thing missing really is a search engine with an LLM. How do you plan to handle our new overlord indexing?


Having worked in the same problem space, I can heavily recommend to get expert input when evaluating which features to use. Ideally, this is a person who knows the internals of the machinery and/or operations that can help you remove spurious features. As a Data Scientist, one sometimes tends to think that the data explains everything and no expert domain knowledge is needed ("Modern machine translation does work without any knowledge of grammar or language!"). Good luck!


You can also use mlflow locally with SQLite (https://www.mlflow.org/docs/latest/tracking.html#scenario-2-...). Even though I haven't tried querying the db directly ...


I fondly remember a former colleague calling it the "propeller" key which made me laugh and stuck with me. I now continue myself calling it like that!


I really like the ultra simple approach of MVP.css (https://andybrewer.github.io/mvp/). It looks better than no styling at all and doesn't require me to get into Bootstrap. Only minimal html tags needed. Perfect for small side projects.


Very impressive and bravo on your success! I love seeing indie hackers launching their projects and get positive feedback in the form of revenue. Also appreciate the weightlifting focus, will check out the app for sure.


Thank you!


I really like your wiki, well done!


Well done Sébastian - I have been waiting for this. Having seperate SQLAlchemy and pydantic models always seemed like a spot where the whole FastAPI developer experience wasn't ideal imo. Looking forward to try this out :)


Pieter Levels' https://airlinelist.com has the a filter for 737 Max fleets ...


(See the Airplanes category) The fatality odds bring to mind that correlation does not imply causation. But still useful. Also, MCs surprise me. Space shuttle is a bit sad too.
