I was actually hoping this ran on iPad OS/iOS

I use https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/inspect-browser/id1203594958 but would like a more fully featured environment. Not sure if anyone has found a better developer browser for iPad?

Probably just to emphasise the lightweight requirement on client side storage.

I’m not sure it’s the worst but I continually find myself frustrated by how sluggish slack feels.

Even with the new UI it still seems strange that the site is so slow vs others I have to use.

I sell cheaper things (<£200) on eBay for whatever I get in the auction, even if I only make enough to cover the postage.

More expensive things I try to find friends and family willing to give me something for them. eBay scammers for macs and iPads are a nightmare as it’s easy for them to win an auction and then disappear when they see you’re not gonna get screwed over. Then you have to start all over again.

I see it more as reuse than selling. The money I make from selling covers the effort of selling it and is a reward for keeping the junk from piling up.

I use dynamic dns, a short ttl and have an external check on some services - they ping once a minute and never report downtime.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that sees it that way. I used ebay to give things that I don't want to someone that does. Any money I made was to pay for the hassle of it. I saw it as getting paid for recycling.

That's more elaborate than I had. In my case, they won my item a few times in a row and sent fake paypal payment emails.

When you're keen to sell the item, waiting for a week only to have a scammer win the auction gets tiring.

I decided to not sell a macbook on ebay after I listed it and had a number of fraudulent buyers win auctions and not pay (while sending me fake paypal emails). I sold the laptop to a friend instead.

I find the ebay seller fees pretty offensive so tend to use ebay only for things that I'll take any amount for and that I have no use for. I see it as targetted recycling via reuse rather than a selling platform and generally don't sell stuff for more than £30.

I had a bad experience similar to the OP with a motherboard a few years ago but was able to claim on the courier that it'd been damaged in transit (even when the buyer almost certainly damaged the item).

It’s on the homepage for me... I think it’s based on when the post was created and the voting activity...

I find Reeder for iOS to be exemplary in terms of UX. I use inoreader to sync the state and find it to work well as a tool for that.

I get everything I can in there. Email newsletters, hacker news etc are all in here to save my inbox.

Sad to see such a negative reaction here.

We have something similar internally - we call them personal user manuals. They explain how we like to work (e.g. communication preferences), and a little bit about ourselves.

We ask new joiners to write theirs when they join. They make a good introduction to the company and can provide guidance when wondering how best to interact with others.

Personally I’ve found using ‘private’ web APIs to be a bit of a mixed blessing. Having side projects break with no notice is very frustrating, at the same time they’re a huge improvement on scraping for ad-hoc tasks.

Notion plan to release an API soon. They included in their pricing plan update yesterday.

Notion has HTML as well as CSV+Md. I export once a month and it appears to work ok.

Would you ever open the tool to the public?

Kubernetes provides a standard way to deploy applications. If I’m familiar with deploying applications on Kubernetes at work, why not have the same for my side projects at home?

> if you're looking for something to run your home services long term, I would recommend not using Kubernetes

If we disregard one’s experience with Kubernetes as a factor, are there any other reasons you see to not use k8s at home?

I use drone.io to build all my arm images for my pi cluster.

I use dynamic DNS with my Edgemax router. Something like inlets operator or cloudflare Argo are other options.

I’ve never had any issues with the Linux client on 16.04

This is only true if you’re using the same email.

It might be good to clarify your expected users.

Most Kubernetes users I have worked with integrated with some cloud provider auth or similar to grant permissions to Kubernetes resources.

I can see this being useful for smaller deployments or when such integrations are unavailable but it might be worth explaining that in the readme of the project.

Also, how do you see this working in the config as code / ‘gitops’ world? How does this work for clusters in different environments?

This seems overly dramatic calling it the last proper free tier. Cloud Run has a free tier is mostly comparable.

I'm also seeing issues with GCE and GCS. Getting permissions errors and timeouts.

GKE cluster API endpoints have high error rates or timeouts too.

"Multiple services reporting issues" on https://status.cloud.google.com/ now. Can we update the title?

I use rclone to sync my drive to backblaze b2 daily. This runs in my personal cluster as a CronJob. The initial egress cost was steep but i’m not generating 100s of GB a month.

I download takeouts once a month and store them in drive to cover the other google data.

I have bucket versioning in b2 and only delete items manually every now and then.

RSS and Notion have made me much more positive about this problem recently.

I’ve found a nice RSS reader I like on my phone and use it to follow HN, blogs, newspaper, podcasts etc. There is only one opening/start in the pipeline. I don’t really read twitter anymore.

I open a reading list on my phone’s browser and use open tabs as a todo. I lose interest in some too but I don’t worry about that any more.

If I hear something interesting in a podcast I note it down in a collection in Notion while I listen.

After reading a book, paper or long article I copy my highlights into notion and summarise them over the course of a few weeks on my commute.

I also keep a notion table of unread books and use that to plan what I read on my ebook reader next.

I also gather information relevant to work in there. Links to docs or notes for my next 1:1.

With many of the notes I never return but I find the writing, summarising and organising helps me remember what I’ve read.

I think I take notes to remember things but i’m not really sure anymore.

Thanks for getting back to me, I’d make it clearer it’s a series given the title.

Specifically relating to the mood and confidence calendar idea, what benefits have you experienced?

I guess this is first in a series?

I quite like the idea of the calendar, hadn’t come across that before. Has anyone used it and found it works?

> doesn't feel very actionable, it assumes quite a bit of in-depth knowledge

Think you've hit the nail on the head there, it's a fair criticism.
