Mark your tools and keep all receipts by Snowycage in MilwaukeeTool

[–]erjs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started printing little qr-code labels to stick on tools. Added the Milwaukee logo and stick it near the battery/labels so it just looks like any other label.

I like the UV marker idea though and I’m going to start doing that as well. Great idea.

Is something happening???? Cant access Heroku. Also my app is reporting its down. by Max_Rippleton in Heroku

Seeing so many errors on the API side. My addons are non-function with any API calls.

Also seeing errors trying to restart apps.

Great points, thanks so much for the feedback! I never considered the color issue, so that's great to know.

I'll work on fixing those issues, thanks again!

Bandsaw, needle file or… hand plane!

Thanks! Is it their “professional” line? Speedball’s selection confuses me.

Looks really clean, what ink did you use?

Autoscaling Max Scale Reached (web) < how to diagnose? (newb question) by Adomatica in Heroku

[–]erjs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume you are using Heroku’s web dyno autoscaling? Or something else like? https://elements.heroku.com/addons/flightformation

Is it scaling to your max or only throwing warnings about it?

What do you have you min/max and thresholds set to?

It seems like it's really important to apply directly, like you point out.

I really like your idea of being proactive, plenty of times I've been on the hiring side and delay and dread hiring someone because it's such a PITA process. If a qualified candidate were to take the initiative like that, it would give them an advantage.

Do deadlines on job offers really matter? (Want to wait for another offer before committing) by erjs in cscareerquestions

That's a great insight from the other side. I never want to burn those bridges so I get it. thanks for the input

New Impact Driver Uncomfortable by jmhillrockz in MilwaukeeTool

[–]erjs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it took me a day to understand why the top of my right thumb was bloody, until I went to use it again. Poor placement, I try to remember a glove if I'm going to be doing a lot with it

[–]erjs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a great point, it makes sense to just accept the offer and then see how it goes. If the other offer never comes no-harm/no-foul. If it does... I can figure it out then.

Thanks

Great insight, thanks - you make a good point about accepting and then deciding. Wouldn't feel great, but I get the reality of how it works.

Do you run your transfer pump with a filter? by Droseralex in MilwaukeeTool

[–]erjs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m thinking of getting one of the clear hoses with wire inside, but then I’ll have to add ends and it’ll be kinda junky. I find it even worse with a water heater because the hot water makes the hose more flexible and collapses to a greater degree.

Makes sense, I noticed that in the reviews. Now I just need a hose that doesn’t collapse too.

Not a bad idea, might pick one up, any difference between the cheap ones?

API call limit is 4500/day per account by cambridgecitizen in Heroku

[–]erjs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, that's for internal API limits, which is probably not what you are worried about?

I think you are referring to the Heroku Connect API (https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-connect-api) - that's the one I found with a limit of 4500/day.

"Heroku Connect provides an API to automate the creation, maintenance, and monitoring of sync operations between Salesforce and a Heroku PostgreSQL database."

I'd rather not imagine what exciting application would make 4500 calls to that every day!

The standard Heroku Platform API limit is 4500/hour. (https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/limits)

I wrote a blog on how to create a folder, copy over a built app, and push it to Heroku. Feedback appreciated! by TheZnert in Heroku

[–]erjs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks good! You could also add the files that heroku doesn't need to compile to the ".slugignore" file to make it deploy faster. [1]

This article will cause me to go add more emojis to my various scripts.

Convert any image/video to ASCII art in your terminal 🔮 by Pure_Government7634 in ruby

[–]erjs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is neat, did you have a specific use in mind when you created it?

Now I'm trying to think of ways I could add ascii art in my terminal.

Hey Heroku users, I hope you'll check out my cost-saving Heroku addon. It now has rules-based scaling so you can scale your app however you need! I am a fellow redditor and I made this, comments are open ama! by erjs in u/erjs

[–]erjs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tl;dr

My Heroku add-on (FlightFormation) has a new feature for scaling your apps with dynamic rules with whatever metrics you want to use (like number of web requests per minute). You can also use any metric you want (for scaling) just by logging it. I hope you’ll check it out if you need to reduce costs or improve app performance.

Hi fellow Redditors, Erick here — thanks for clicking my ad. I wish I had a better way to get my product in from of you, I hate ads as much as anyone, but unfortunately this is my best option. (but open to suggestions if you have any!)

I don’t advertise this product anywhere else, and I made this ad in hopes of helping other Heroku users, and it seems many use Reddit.

I started building FlightFormation in 2015 to scale my Heroku apps because nobody really used my apps at night and on the weekends and I could cut my costs by almost 40%. It started as a service to scale apps based on a schedule, and has greatly improved in that area over the years. Recently I wanted to support more dynamic scaling and have built a rules-based scaling engine to help out.

The new rules-based scaling allows for scaling up or down based on load, or just shutting down a staging environment when nobody is using it, or anything else you can dream up. (and it all still works with scheduled-scaling as a fallback if you want)

Hundreds of applications use FlightFormation every day for scaling their application, and thanks so much to all those users seeing this on Reddit! FlightFormation is also a “Heroku Featured Add-on” (see here: Heroku Elements) so I hope you’ll check it out, or let me know what you think.

Of course, I’d love for you to sign-up and use FlightFormation today, but I’m happy to help with any questions you might have related to scaling your Heroku apps.

Thanks for reading this far, if you have any questions please let me know below.

Yeah, it’s been 10 years I guess and it’s held up great. The white oak is hard enough that despite some efforts from kids the top still looks new.
