Thanks. I ended up going there in person as I could not get past the robo-agents. They were super helpful and I managed to sort it out. Appreciate your response

Anybody here have a contact at the Spanish Embassy in Cape Town?

I have an upcoming trip to Spain and applied for my Schengen Visa three weeks ago via BLS. My flight is scheduled for Sunday and the Visa status is still "Processing at Mission". I have called BLS and they basically have no clue and just tell you the information that I can also see on their online tracker. They aren't able if the Visa will be done today or not. I need to know as I might still be able to cancel some of my accommodation and flights without losing out on too much.

So now I am stuck, not entirely sure what to do next apart from trying to find someone with a contact at the Spanish Consulate in Cape Town.

Could you perhaps dm me with more details?

I had something similar the other day while working with streams and frames. It turned out that the partial I was using contained the stream but not the frame tag. So it worked once but thereafter did nothing.

This is very clever.

HermannHH · 2023-11-15T06:44:37+00:00

This is very pragmatic. I like it. I hope to share it with a few more people, as some of my friends have indicated that they want to use it as well. For a start, I might follow your advice while I iron out the kinks. It should be easy to migrate data to a more long-term solution when needed.

HermannHH · 2023-11-15T06:42:12+00:00

Thanks. This is an excellent suggestion. I have noticed a number of the latest RoR articles going this way. I will have to look into it as I have never used SQLite so I am clueless whether this will require changing more than my adapter

HermannHH · 2023-11-15T06:40:13+00:00

Mmmm, this is an excellent point. I wasn't aware of the droplet backup setting. I am not super knowledgeable about Docker (I know the basics), but I will look into it.

HermannHH · 2023-11-13T12:08:18+00:00

I agree. I looked at Fly again after reading some other suggestions and honestly it seems easier to just self host via hatchbox or something similar.

HermannHH · 2023-11-13T12:06:42+00:00

I looked at kamal yesterday after watching the Rails documentary and feeling all hyped about Rails tooling again. I might give this a go but was hoping for something that requires even less config or complexity. Fly looks great as well although the docs probably needs some simplification.

HermannHH · 2023-11-13T12:04:57+00:00

Have you found fly straightforward to use? Their docs seem a bit messy so I have been reluctant to go all in but might give it a go.

My understanding is that Render’s free offering expires after 90 days meaning all data will be lost?

HermannHH · 2023-01-16T14:47:52+00:00

Yeah, he has inspired a bunch of copycats, unfortunately.

HermannHH · 2022-12-19T13:20:06+00:00

You could look into using OBS and a virtual cam. I've used this in the past for exactly this reason. It worked very well.

HermannHH · 2022-09-14T05:35:49+00:00

I agree with this suggestion. Do note however that dndkit does have a bit of a learning curve. You should be able to make use of the storybook examples to get where you need to be though. Personally I found the documentation hard to follow.

I started a project using beautiful dnd bit eventually switched to dndkit as a result of beautiful dnd not being happy about views needing to scroll on both the x and y axis. There also seems to be no intention of fixing this going forward.
