If the email body contains the word unsubscribe, send it to the promotional folder.

One rule to rule them all.

I made the decision to leave Github a couple months ago when I retired and started heavily working on personal projects. I like the idea of radicle and used it for a while, but it's complicated to set up and maintain if you want to run your own seed node and pin your personal projects.

What I ended up with is a version of a static forge - Charm's soft-serve to host the repos and a forked version of the pico.sh pgit static site generator. I added git-bug integration to track issues in the repo and an alternative CLI to git-bug that works better when collaborating with agents.

A static forge site is very resilient to bot traffic because it only renders a limited number of commits, instead of pathologically allowing a near infinite number of URLs for bots to crawl.

https://kilimanjaro.io if you want to see what it looks like.

I’d be interested in seeing those if you’re open to sharing.

Insane how the entire global economy moves things of this value around all day every day and we have no problem with it.

Are you suggesting it's impossible to outsource development work to someone for $220k?

Why doesn't he then do that and pay someone $$ to build it? This is just marketing for whatever this web3 thing is.

One more thought - any consideration of hooking this to Cloudflare's queue? Then you could optionally connect another worker to that and e.g. persist everything in their D1 SQLite database.

That works perfectly for what I'm using it for. Thanks for building this!

This is great. I'm going to use this with something I'm working on. The edge behavior is just what I need.

When you say limitations are a "relatively small number of clients need to share some state over a relatively short period of time," I read in another comment about a dozen or so clients, but what about the time factor? Can it be on the order of hours?

Been playing in beer leagues for a long time. There's one for everyone - whether it's hockey (my vice), baseball, softball, basketball, etc. - just tons of options.

It's half about the sport and half the people. I've made lots of friends playing hockey at midnight during the week.

Nothing is ready to be shared yet, but when it is I'll announce it here first for beta testers:

You can subscribe by sending an email to ~scooter/[email protected]. Feel free to send a hello to the list with what you'd like to see. I'm banging away on it every night when I get home from work.

It's open source so when it's ready you can fork it and call it anything you want. Some of the features are meant to be specific to motorcyclists. And as far as getting the word out, it's easier to make it specific to a particular community since I know where they hang out online and how to get it in front of eyeballs.

I'd love to hear more about what improvements you'd like to see. Nothing is ready to be shared yet, but when it is I'll announce it here first for beta testers:

Everything has been done at least once. If we don't try to improve on what's out there, no progress will ever made.

I think Osmand works fine for some things but really sucks for planning long, time-bound trips, which is my use case.

This is great. I've been working on an adventure motorcycling trip planning app which has similar requirements of being able to work offline as you ride your preplanned trip.

Yours is a good example of what can be done by keeping it simple and not getting wrapped around the axle with complicated frameworks.

It makes me regret all the time I've spent trying to figure out the absolute best tech stack to use rather than just working on finishing the damn thing.

Let's just accept you can build just about anything in any language. When I see posts like "I built X in Rust," I just assume the process was so onerous that they had to impress others by saying they did it the hardest way possible. /s
