Lot of search use cases can be filled by Postgres without jumping to something more complex like OpenSearch or AWS CloudSearch

Currently building search over the entire Joyn asset catalog for an internal tool.

The bluesky API is nice to work with.

I was put on to this by The Ergo newsletter.

I always enjoy at least one of the “Things we liked” links.

This is the kind of personal project I find inspiring. It’s a super minimal text based sports scores website.

Как я изучаю Русский язык.

Еда.

Don’t really have a use case, but I really want to try DuckDB. Also exporting Parquet files instead of CSVs or JSON.

Many frameworks are going typescript as default option. I find after setting up a few projects and using VSCode it get better. Haven’t worked professionally in pure JavaScript in years.

I find Deno ecosystem to underdeveloped to be usable. Just tried to use denoflare, npm modules didn’t work.

Prepared oysters 🦪 for the first time last night. Yum! Only ~8 EUR from Lidl.

Here is a look at the current iteration of my cooking notes site. It is powered by Deno, Fresh, SonicSearch, NeatCSS, and CouchDB.

Reading over the BlueSky Docs, docs.bsky.app/docs/get-sta..., I didn't find a way to stream my posts or get automatic updates like a webhook. There is the firehose, but that is way too many updates.

I'll start with a cron service that hits the getAuthorFeed.

The first use case I'd like to try BlueSky for is automatically embedding my cooking related posts on my cooking notes site: cooking.travisshears.com . I'm in the process of rewriting the tech side of that project, so now is a good time.

Trying out Bluesky because Nilay made some convincing points in her Decoder interview.

I run my own personal Pleroma (fediverse / activity pub) as well social.travisshears.xyz/users/travis...

Been into Japanese knives for a while, but only owned a Tojiro Santoku and petty until now. With this recent delivery, via relative visiting from US, I add:
