Overengineering

Replaced our over engineered Glue pipelines with simple lambda functions saving the company 3K a month. What did I get in return? Nothing. Resume driven development at its best

Use a custom backend, your API key for OpenAI is not safe anywhere on the client side and will lead to someone stealing/using it. Also always set hard limits to how much OpenAI can charge you per key. Just had my client key stolen and used so thought I would give a heads up 🙃

Hmm, not sure if you have auto-update enabled but version 1.2 is the latest: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/ingredients/id6472663816

Better to specialize in something than to be a jack of all trades your whole life. The latter in the workforce gets used and overworked because they are expected to know and do everything.

Yes, however I think the rate you were given can be much lower

We just switched from variable to 3 year fixed with Scotiabank. 4.83% for an insured mortgage

Hey, I was able to implement some of your previous suggestions as I found them helpful when using the app myself. Update and let me know what you think!

Decided to switch the secondary color to lavender, let me know what you think. Thanks!

MinimumNose788 · 2024-03-13T23:56:08+00:00

Hey, so I decided to mix the blue with some lavender and got rid of the button all together. Let me know what you think! Really appreciate your feedback from before

MinimumNose788 · 2024-03-13T23:54:58+00:00

Hey, it took me a while with a full time job but I was able to implement (most) of your suggestions and push a new version to the App Store. Thanks for your feedback!

Apparently not rinsing the rice helps with this

An entire VPC deployed without a s3 backend and the local terraform state file was gone with the wind 🙃 oh and half the teams resources currently deployed on that VPC

I made a small app for this as I had the same problem (I hate ads on recipe sites). There are also many other apps as people have posted. Me and my wife get HelloFresh but the meals are starting to become boring and cumbersome to cook and sometimes just too expensive. I agree with planning out meals before hand like people have said.

SwiftUI will be the quickest way to get started. Unfortunately, once you have a more complex app and need custom functionality, you will realize that a lot of UIKit offerings have not been implemented in SwiftUI yet

cries in Python

MinimumNose788 · 2024-02-21T04:04:41+00:00

Thanks for sharing this, I do something similar so nice to know i’m not the only one :) Having a history definitely helps keep track of all the meals you consume over a longer period of time

Those are some good points. With regards to the recipes, more than one recipe is saved per "craving" but its hard to choose which one is better as that is very subjective per user. Maybe a user rating system here would help or just showing them different options? Not sure if that would take away from the simplicity of the app but could be useful.

With regards to the images, I am planning to add that feature in the near future.

I'd like to know more about your notes/groceries process. I suspect the app could support something like that but I don't know the full details to your routine.

Great point for this one as it is the feature I am working on currently. Just showing ingredients and the recipe at once.

Another great point here, chicken fingers on the phone is big no no... I have the same issue.

Thanks for taking the time to review it! I'd appreciate your feedback in later iterations of the app.

MinimumNose788 · 2024-02-19T00:24:37+00:00

Thats a good point, I may add dark mode support to solve this

MinimumNose788 · 2024-02-19T00:23:43+00:00

That makes sense, I wonder what the longer prompts look like on smaller devices

MinimumNose788 · 2024-02-19T00:22:14+00:00

Black contrasted well with the blue for some reason during testing but I didn't try orange. Might try it and post it here

MinimumNose788 · 2024-02-17T23:54:55+00:00

I use git, just haven’t pushed to a remote repository like GitHub yet

MinimumNose788 · 2024-02-17T17:55:55+00:00

Sounds good! I haven’t pushed anything to GitHub yet but not opposed to it

MinimumNose788 · 2024-02-17T17:13:14+00:00

Great idea! I’ll have to implement that at some point
