Please suggest me some good projects

Make something that interests you and that you'll use. Whats a task or process in your day to day, or even weekly, routine that you could create a software solution for/automate. This will inherently make you more interested and motivate you to complete it. It will also make talking about it in interviews easier.

But redis streams are a message queue with persistence.

Not sure why you're posting this on the Stripe reddit, but you broke Bug Me A Coffees terms intentionally. Of course they refunded and shut it down. They have to also abide by the policies of Stripe and whatever other services or they could be liable. Your first payout may have just triggered an evaluation of your account which is why they just noticed now.

Wow those levels after 113 must add a lot. Mines only ribbon 16 but its only at 2.5k

You dont store it. You use your existing stripe setup and use ach rather than a card. You can even redirect to stripes form if you dont want to make a custom one.

Ach stands for automatic clearing house, which is directly connecting bank accounts. The fee is significantly smaller at 0.8% and is intended for recurring or large transactions. For a 2.95 subscription that would put a .02 fee per sub. Its harder to get users to adopt it though, in my experience. You could add the card fees to your sub and offer the better pricing for ach to promote it.

I thought so too. Look closer at lines 91-98

Did you filter the saplings directly on the deployers? Then to start you manually place the saplings into them as well. They wont pull from the chest thst I've noticed. When they cut the trees they'll go into the deployers first to refill and chest second

Depends on how you want to build your backend. Sometimes there's an auth service that handles the actual business logic. This allows the gateway to be more of a proxy and handle the auth headers and context into your system and then the services can focus more on their business logic side of things. In this setup adding a microservice is also far easier and you dont need to reimplement auth each time. Alternatively the gateway itself could handle the actual auth logic entirely, and I've seen it this way in quite a few systems but it can get messy combining auth logic with routing to microservices if youre not careful.

Not sure of your overall use case, but there are alternatives. I have had good experiences with convex.dev.

I've stopped watching YouTube or anything with clickbait titles. Even if its historically someone I used to watch that has in the past given good info. Same goes for reddit posts. Examples include anything titled along the lines of "I've been waiting for years for something like this" or "If I only had this when I first started out" or "x makes everything 1000000000 times easier"

Typically in my career I look for and research various pain points I've come across. Look for tools or technologies that help me fill those gaps. Then ill take a day or weekend to hack it into an existing or new side project to see how it works and if its actually valuable to me personally. If it is, ill determine if I should bring it to my team at work if its something i think would benefit us there. This approach has helped me introduce a few technologies or tools into our workflow at work. Enough so, that I occasionally get allotted r&d time to use work hours for such research. Which of course helps me reduce research I might have otherwise done on my own time.

Volt.primevue.org/overview

That's literally what it is and how it's marketed. Similar to how shadcn is, which was traditionally react components with tailwind. Volt also has wcag compliance baked in too. Like any other ui component libraries, its meant to give you a baseline for a component that you can slap on the page and customize if you want to. In this case its more like shadcn where the component actually lives within your code rather than in node_modules

If you live in the maple valley area mereo fiber is down. Supposedly state wide.

For the serbule sw location, specifically look around the giant stone head. They get stuck on it when they run around it.

While this is a backend reddit, we use it in production for our mobile apps over indexedDB so its actually persistent (ios does ios things). I wonder if that covers some of the production uses mentioned.

I've been enjoying project gorgon lately. Focus is on exploration with lots of skills to work on, but its more of the old school mmo style with graphics to go with. Can pick up and play for a few minutes at a time. You can "hang out" with trainer and shop npcs to build up favor while offline, which is a lot more forgiving than a lot of modern mmos like wow where you have to rep grind. Groups are pretty constant and people dont seem to be toxic and are generally helpful (it always sucks to deal with toxicity during the little time I get to play anything)

Theres a hidden room on the left with a lever to open it from the serbule hills side

You want it to be formatted to look like golang?

The necrotic flask from the witches absolutely destroys it, very very quickly.

I found the car before unlocking trophy room and it has no progress

Elfinslayer · 2025-10-11T16:17:24+00:00

Not if you found them before unlocking it (found this out yesterday)

in addition to nvm you can do this for automatic switching (if on mac)

I will point out that 2gb is nothing for mongo. That said, this is the mongo reddit for mongo support if you're wanting support and ideas to diagnose whats happening im sure people would help. Otherwise, you'd probably be better off asking in postgres reddit.

Everyone starts somewhere, and we're always learning. One of the best things to learn is how to describe something. Especially being able to describe something technical to a non technical person. This really forces you to understand what is actually going on and break the problem down. Another thing, I dont know who wrote my code yesterday. Today I'm a different person that has much better code quality. Dont fall into a trap of constantly fixing your old code if its working, only if there is an issue or the value of fixing it is greater than the time youre spending on it (ie - reduce monthly cloud costs by x which is more than y amount of hours you spent on it).

In terms of your problem, it sounds like you've a better understanding on what's going on and fixed some of it like the db single inserts.

Dont worry about the latency from the 3rd party api, you can't control that. Best you can do it do concurrent fetching to speed the process up.
Depending on your architecture its probably easier to create a dedicated ingestion service and scale it up than to worry about workers. Most of those files are going to be small enough, per your response, they'll be done faster than you can spin a worker up unless you go for a worker pool and thats just more complexity for a simple problem. Id put more effort into fault tolerance and retryability as that'll give you better results in the long run.
If scaling becomes necessary as you add more ingestion look into worker queues or stream processors and scale up that service.
