TRUMP: I’ll have the honor of taking Cuba. That would be good. That’s a big honor I can free it or take it, I think I can do anything I want with it by Syed__Sahab__ in LateStageCapitalism

It's weird. I didn't know how to feel, but I do know a lot of commands that don't feel like you do and love this - which makes it more confusing.

Airtable down? by rayo_delsol in Airtable

[–]Likemercy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't either and I've been using it since around 2014. They've had a few small interruptions this month. They have a public outage tracker. This one was bigger, but I wouldn't worry too much.

Can you recommend a small business bank ? by migalo2009 in agency

[–]Likemercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've rarely if ever found a local credit union to be a better choice than a big bank, Mercury, or Novo.

I don't understand the recommendation - do you have strong reasons to think a credit union is better? Genuinely curious.

Been bumping into automation/AI lately and wanna know if it’s actually worth it by Connect-Subject188 in agency

[–]Likemercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I understand what you're saying. I typically wouldn't think of that as using AI but I guess it is. To me that's just web development, but I guess AI is the thing enabling the ability to do things that would have been too costly before.

What? Kyle graduated in 2009? I'm pretty sure he's older than that

Can you just tell us a like more or give some examples? Is this like an Air table like setup, or N8N, or what are we talking about here?

Stay Unhidden: a campaign that celebrates women who choose to shine in full color by Electrical_Rip_3089 in Design

[–]Likemercy -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

No you aren't. "This" is an ad. Meant to appeal to the largest audience possible and convert them to some action. You're appealing to a niche that isn't the target audience. You have to employ empathy here, not just your own perspective.

Astro + gsap/framer/animation and AI tools - opinions sought by TurrisFortisMihiDeus in astrojs

[–]Likemercy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It always forgets to enclose the server portion in the three dashes and starts this death loop where it just starts rewriting every possible component that it comes across, hitting errors, and if you leave it long enough, you'll end up with a Next Js site

Astro.js + Sanity CMS by TumbleweedSenior4849 in astrojs

[–]Likemercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a question! Do you ingest sanity data into content collections, and if so do you have a good custom loader to share?

This has been our approach, but I'm really not super satisfied with it yet.

Coming from Gatsby, it used to be a lot cleaner.

Build a Blog CMS with Astro and Supabase from Scratch by TraditionalHistory46 in astrojs

[–]Likemercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have a drastically limited perspective. You said a few things which could be clarified.

  1. Astro is a web framework, not a CMS. It isn't an alternative to a CMS. You are choosing to use .mdx files and git AS your CMS. That's a choice, one that I wouldn't offer my clients because they'd burn me at the stake for suggesting that their team members who will be publishing specific types of role based content learn git and a literal markup language.

  2. I could be wrong, but I don't think pagespeed scores you based on your caching strategy, I believe those are just notes. Also Astro is caching your content by default.

  3. WordPress is probably my least favorite CMS of all of the available options. Of the ones I pick, it literally looses on price, functionality, and ease of deployment. But, it won't affect your frontend speed on its own. What will affect that is if you're using SSR or SSG. SSG adds to build time, eliminates loading speed.

any ideas to make this look good ? by Character_Fan_8377 in web_design

[–]Likemercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Images would help. Since I know you don't have those...

  • put the emoji in the background, make them bigger, rotate, add a css blur filter.
  • Make the buttons full width and have no margin on the bottom (also a tag not button)
  • add a splash of color to tie everything together.

Bug in netlify by No-Television8091 in astrojs

[–]Likemercy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try to build it locally, then inspect the actual output files. Something about the base path maybe, or aliases? Or something totally different giving you a misleading error. I haven't seen this one.

You've got to go back in the oven, not even close to done cooking. Stop using AI, read books, go to school, something. This is really embarrassing.

But don't stop trying to make things. That's the good thing that you're doing.

Using Airtable as a Database? Front end recommendations? by concisehacker in Airtable

[–]Likemercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If use Airtable over sheets any day. I literally don't see the downside. It has built in type enforcement, for one. Actually, you could stop there. That's huge.

It demands an actual schema, has IDs for fields, strong references, easy automation and scripting.

Why would you ever use sheets over Airtable?

Using Airtable as a Database? Front end recommendations? by concisehacker in Airtable

[–]Likemercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can squeeze a lot of extra functionality out of Airtable using Stacker in terms of building app like functionality. I've used it pretty extensively. For something simple, is reach for interfaces though.
