dav1app··on Ask HN: NestJs vs. NextJs?
They do different things.

NextJS is a nice tool. Every small software that I create, I pick NextJS at first.

There is one small caveat: APIs on NextJS are edge runners. You cannot keep state by just sending data outside the API handlers.

dav1app··on LastPass users locked out due to MFA resets
I was an user of LastPass. Happly switched to Bitwarden.
dav1app··on Password protect a static HTML page
I have a similar project called Sasha.html.

https://github.com/dav1app/sasha.html

The idea is to export any file as an HTML file with the data as an encrypted string hard coded within the HTML. This way, no specific software is required to decrypt the file, just open it on the browser, type the password and download or view your file.

I built this to have a easy way to send encrypted files to any device and open it without having to install external tools.

dav1app··on Instagram ‘down’, suspending accounts for no apparent reason
I am one of the suspended account. Yesterday was election day in Brazil, but I didn't manifested any political positions. Imagine how hard was for Brazilians to think about why this has happened.
dav1app··on Microsoft Clipchamp
I ditched Clipchamp in favour of Flixier. It is 10 times better. It is usable on other platforms, allows both video and audio processing (including features missing on Clipchamp, like audio eq and green screen processing).

I am no associated with Flixier in any form but a customer.

dav1app··on Ask HN: What are the best-designed personal blogs you’ve come across?
Read one of your articles about breaking React rules for fun and profit. Good stuff.
dav1app··on Ask HN: Who Wants to Be Fired?
On my last job, a new manager called me for a meeting on Friday 4PM. I spent the whole month on an extremely stressful project.

The meeting was about an app that integrates credit card payments, billets and bank account on a terminal that is going to be available to the general public.

The deadline? 11PM of the same day. Final version. From 0 to 100% in 6 hours.

I said that it was impossible. He said that I was incapable.

I remember coming back home with a feeling that I was incompetent, even with my 11 years of experience with JavaScript. I didn't sleep that night, trying to build it even with delay.

Saturday morning I had a burnout. I was afraid to lose my job because I sustain my family. I thought throwing myself from my apartment window. That was one of the worst days in my life.

I got fired on Monday morning.

Got another job on the same day. Almost twice the salary.I told them that I need a little time to cleanup my mind and they gave 2 weeks to recover from that situation.

I'm happy now.

dav1app··on Day Trading for a Living?
They have a reason to make that article: there is a lot of companies fooling the Brazilian people over this.

I'm a Brazilian software developer for the financial market. I also made some financial courses on the same university that the authors.

Brazilian stock exchange market has exploded in the last years and most of my friends decided to 'work' as traders. None of them with prior knowledge or experience in the market. All of the posts on Instagram every time they earn some money.

The cause for this fever was the marketing around 3 or 4 companies who sell the dream of financial independence through high-risk financial market lessons. Normally they offered courses to famous people for free and use their image to convince the rest of us.

One interesting thing: they normally sell the course with a private platform to trade the stocks included. I believe that they use that platform to collect data and operate against the traders that use that platform. They know the strategy that they are going to use (because they teach them), so it is easy to operate against.
