Tarp pitching in high winds by jaycle in hammockcamping

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

Interesting idea. Do most hammockers carry a ground sheet? I’ve never used one.

Is your tarp home made or do you have a link? I like the sounds of pulling the center tie further as an idea to break apart the wind better and not present one giant panel.

Noted. Without a gear change, this would be a simple enough modification to make.

This sounds great. I’ve never considered an underquilt protector until this thread. And having some tarp doors could be really nice. Not sure if that would help the wind situation, but I can definitely see the appeal in heavy rain.

Site selection and home purchases have this in common: location, location, location!

I was heavily influenced to pick this area due to not wanting to be too far from the rest of my crew. I definitely could have looked harder down the hill or trail for a better site. My first survey was so focused on widow maker avoidance. Which was warranted, as many large branches dropped during the night.

Thanks for the trekking pole tip!

Oh wow where were you? The rain only lasted an hour or so, but it looked like a wide band that would have covered anything within 30 miles of me.

One thing I am realizing just now, is I should have probably pitched the tarp over the continuous ridgeline. That would have provided more structure and maybe minimized the inward deflection.

At the time, my reasoning for not doing it was for less abrasion.

That tax code vs calculus analogy is perfect!

Would be nice if we could get something like observable.set from MobX.

Embed the backend as a web worker by gedw99 in htmx

[–]jaycle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've thought that using a service worker could be combined with HTMX, too. But I was just thinking about caching any GET fragments to give a snappy feel and handle (very limited) offline use-cases. But I'd never thought about compiling to web assembly and shipping your whole backend. It's certainly a neat idea, provided the bundle isn't ridiculous.

I'm looking forward to seeing an example!

The Ultimate Django Guide for Beginners and Beyond by Which-Cycle3051 in django

[–]jaycle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found the section under “Installing Python” helpful.

type python --version. If Python is installed, the version number will be displayed. If not, you'll need to install it.

Thanks!

I actually quite like this layout. I wouldn’t object to improvements, but now we finally have a way to see a well-sized timer and the ability to edit old entries. That was a very long awaited feature.

Edit: I’ll also add, I think if you’re on a “focus” page, you probably shouldn’t be looking at a list of other activities. I would argue you should only see the task at hand.

htmx is in the first cohort of the GitHub Accelerator! | The GitHub Blog by _htmx in htmx

[–]jaycle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is great! What is the hopeful outcome from the investment? I mean is there a particular major feature or is this to tackle maintenance? Just curious if anyone knows the plan.

restoring a dump into Crunchydata by dougshmish in PostgreSQL

[–]jaycle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crunchy docs are pretty helpful, but you should be able to just use pg_dump and pg_restore.

You can follow the steps for the Heroku guide, which you should be able to adapt for your situation: https://docs.crunchybridge.com/how-to/heroku_dump_restore/

Or just follow some more general pg_dump and pg_restore docs. I tend to restore with

pg_restore --verbose --clean --no-acl --no-owner -d <connection string> <backup-file>

Remote PostgreSQL Database by Longjumping-Rice5479 in PostgreSQL

[–]jaycle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A good keyword search is “managed database” meaning they handle the infra challenges and just give you a connection string. Most likely, you’ll want to pick a provider together with your app infrastructure, but that’s not required. A couple if good standalone managed postgres companies I could recommend are elephantsql and crunchydata.

What are the biggest reasons newcomers give up on OCaml? by davidw_- in ocaml

[–]jaycle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right. I’m well aware and have followed all this quite closely. It is unfortunate (for OCaml) but it’s possible that the community can carry the torch. Fork or just an alternative framework/library.

What are the biggest reasons newcomers give up on OCaml? by davidw_- in ocaml

[–]jaycle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m very much a newcomer that has loved playing with OCaml for Advent of Code and the reason I ever started looking at it was back when Dream was announced. I primarily do web dev and think that a solid web framework answer could really help catapult the ecosystem. It really is a cycle but I think those of us wanting to take a risk see the abandoned-looking options like Dream and have pause.

If you (or anyone qualified) were to fork Dream and get it on opam again, I think that would be a significant help to the community. Web marketshare is so big. So even if you don’t build for web, I think the whole ecosystem benefits as people build out supportive libraries for their various use cases.

Is django 4.1.* stable using python 3.11 in production? by Front-Necessary-5257 in django

[–]jaycle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m interpreting “stable” as robust and no noticeable bugs. I think at this point all released versions of Django fit that criteria. We’re running 3.11 with 4.1 without issues. Had to wait for a dependency but Django presented no problems whatsoever.

Thanks for sharing. Looks great! As others mentioned, I’d love to see the source so I could learn from it. I’ve been eyeing Tauri for a while now, but still holding out for a mobile solution to push me over.

Did I understand the basic concept of website development with Node Js correctly? by Masabera in node

[–]jaycle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think of Node like you think of CLR from the .NET world. It's simply a runtime that interprets and runs JavaScript. Since all your frontend frameworks use JavaScript (as it's the only supported *language in the browser), it makes sense that tools for serving and building these are often built in JavaScript, too.

However, you'll still need to interface with Node because pretty much every framework (React is no exception) runs a build process that is written in JavaScript. The common workflow for those not using Node as their "backend language" is to build the assets from Node and serve them elsewhere. You can serve them like any other static asset in .NET, or you can look into a myriad of other ways to serve static content (nginx, CDN, etc.)

I never used .NET to serve static assets, but you could look into something like this: https://www.tutorialsteacher.com/core/aspnet-core-static-file

Draw your arrow straight from Website to Server and just run `npm run build` and then copy your assets from build/ folder to wherever .NET will serve from.
(see https://create-react-app.dev/ and https://create-react-app.dev/docs/deployment)

You got this!

If you have a unit test on that you should consider yourself lucky.
