As an occasional hobbyist user of Heroku’s free tier, what other providers do you recommend? Fly.io?

A bit more context if it matters, I use it very lightly, and I’m interested on ease of use and ability to have a DB attached to it (I was using PostgreSQL, but any SQL DB would do it).


I found the same video on the website of the summit: https://nabstreamingsummit.com/videos/2022vegas/

I’m on mobile and there does not seem to exist a direct link. Search for: “Case Study: Serving Netflix Video Traffic at 400Gb/s and Beyond”


Having the ability to use Touch ID for sudo is handy. I’ve been using it for a while.

Coupled with `expect` I use it to authenticate through SSH (that is the only feasible option I got to connect to hosts I’ve got limited access). I even wrote about it: https://antonio-ramadas.github.io/blog/2020/10/30/ssh-login-...

Here is the gist of it:

  #!/usr/bin/expect
  
  # Connects via SSH to the host passed as argument
  
  set timeout 60
  set server [lindex $argv 0]
  set username <USERNAME>
  set password [exec sudo cat <PATH_TO_YOUR_PASSWORD_FILE>]
  
  spawn ssh $username@$server
  
  expect { 
   "yes/no" { send "yes\r" ; exp_continue }
   "\*?assword" { send "$password\r" }
  }
  
  interact
Edit: Please remove all permissions from the password file with:

  chmod a-rwx <PATH_TO_PASSWORD_FILE>
I’m also assuming you run this script on an environment you control and trust. Be wary of your password.


Use. SSH. Keys.


Yes, that is my recommendation as well. It is too late to add that to my comment now, but it is worth mentioning what I said should be a last resource solution.


I don’t want to steal the focus from the achievement, but the landing page fails to open on Safari on iPad Air 2013.


Yes, still seeing that too. The tailwindcss homepage fully loads for a brief moment then shows a white screen with "An unexpected error has occurred."

Using Firefox on an Android phone.


Same behavior in firefox 68 android, but not in the new firefox android (using 83 beta), where it works without problems


Yeah works now, thanks.


I had to replace my 2013 iPad Air because barely anything would work on it anymore. It’d run Netflix and basic websites, but that was about it.


I am big tailwind user and i can confirm. I have same tablet first Air it just crashes due to "unexpected error".


And want to add scrolling on Safari 14 isn't very smooth at all. Although that is probably Safari's fault.


Every example I see seems to work with Safari on a 2020 iPad Air, /shrug. Ya on an old version of iOS?


Also had this issue.


I highly recommend "The Power of Habit" by Charles Duhigg[0]. It gives great advice on how habits can change your life.

[0] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Power_of_Habit


Yes, it explains how triggers are the ones that makes or breaks an habit. Good book.


This made my day. Great work. Keep it up!

A small suggestion: include the lyrics either in the video itself or as subtitles. (I know they are in the description, but this way it would be easier to follow them).


Here is the link for the ones interested: Darknet Diaries — https://darknetdiaries.com

I discovered it here on HN. I recommend it.


Would you feel more comfortable if doing a project at home? I read here on HN a nice advice to people that may be uncomfortable in a coding interview. Here it goes: - Ask the company if you can do a project of their choosing instead of coding at the interview. I do not mean to replace that interview, but instead of solving a problem, you would walkthrough what you have done with the interviewee. I never tried this, but I read some companies allow it.


First, great work! I’ve subscribed the RSS feed :) This is something I started wishing for!

Second, on the RSS feed, could you display the source of each link as you do on the website?


I do a tutorial of the language I want to learn, but often I find it is not enough. So, I just browse open-source projects (usually GitHub), check their programming style, learn new tricks (some are not usually mentioned in tutorials) and only then I contribute to the project. Most of the times I get code review for free. This practice has also other positive effects.
