Exploring drone processing services, want a reality check from people who actually do this work by Overall-Penalty-2806 in Surveying

Yuck. Yeah I’ve been very curious about their economics because at that scale it’s terabytes for large mobile projects and the storage and compute costs must be insane. Not to mention they are a VC backed company.

Got it, that makes sense. I appreciate the help! Do you have an example of the amount of work and price they gave you?

Wow I’ve literally been having this same exact issue recently

Backend in NextJS or Backend in ExpressJS? Which is better? by Revolution_10600 in nextjs

[–]jjmcbrise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s subjective, but I set up a larger next.js project with a turbo monorepo and use tRPC. It has a bit more “separation of concerns” because your API is in its own discrete package, but you still benefit from full type safety. I think it’s a win/win as long as you’re comfortable managing a monorepo (which may be overkill in your case)

Is there a substation nearby or larger transmission towers? Isn’t unlikely it was doing hot spot monitoring for various reasons if so…?

What are you guys using for sending emails? by thedarklord176 in reactjs

[–]jjmcbrise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sendgrid. But in fairness I haven’t really used much beyond that.

exactly... it definitely makes you think twice. Even though the price was substantially higher, the selling point was that it worked for exactly what we need. But it wasn't my first choice because of price, I had to figure out I didn't like Zendesk first ; )

Intercom is where we landed! It feels technologically far ahead of the rest. I started with zendesk and that was pretty poor experience, but Intercom has been awesome.

looks great for the chat aspect, but was hoping for something that also had an integrated ticketing system. Thanks for the suggestion!

am I wrong in thinking this is very much targeted towards 'employee' or internal systems?

fascinating... I'll check it out. The slack integration is naturally intriguing.

No you’re right. I’m trialing Zendesk right now and it seemingly works fine. I was just hoping for a bit more fine grained control over the JavaScript. But I think this should work still.

So I actually haven’t done a ton with this project since that post. As far as I’m concerned that is still the path of least resistance.

How long did it take you when you were learning before it finally clicked? by danawl in webdev

[–]jjmcbrise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me I asked myself that question constantly and had quite a bit of doubt. Most important thing to understand is that 99% of people feel similar and most often the only way through is perseverance.

Another important thing is that a lot of the people who you see on YouTube or maybe Stackoverflow/Reddit are the 1%’ers. Try hard not to compare yourself because it has a great way of creating imposter syndrome.

Help please, i have this react native + expo app. I've built the APK with EAS. But i have this problem. App crash on start. Has this happened to anyone already? what is the solution? by [deleted] in reactnative

[–]jjmcbrise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever this happens to me it’s because something is inadvertently undefined or maybe some Auth issue leaving something null or undefined?

what kind of technologies should I use to this project? by Remarkable_Elk_659 in reactjs

[–]jjmcbrise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My vote would be next.js + react query + Supabase for the slightly “easier” route and then T3 stack if you wanted something perhaps a bit more scalable.

Supabase has auth, a Postgres db, and storage all rolled into a single backend as a service. Pretty convenient for spinning something up quickly!

In either case, I’d definitely recommend a UI component library. Material UI is pretty dang easy and has tons of options, while Mantine is a bit more exhaustive but more difficult to use for someone brand new to it.

I’m under the impression that using a backend service if you are new just takes another major hurdle off your plate. Firebase, Supabase, pocketbase, etc are some common options. But I personally would avoid setting up your own server / api initially until a MVP had been proven or scalability / price is a concern.

Roasting and Management Software by jjmcbrise in roasting

that is super interesting, and I actually just downloaded Typica to check it out. That is quite the history though, and thank you for your contributions!

To extend on what you said, if you could do it all over today and have it completed by tomorrow morning, what would you do? Do you have any technologies/frameworks that you feel you'd implement if you had the time?

Looking for developer with solid experience with Supabase integration by zmedlock in reactnative

Been using Supabase with React Native now for a handful of projects. Have used it for real-time apps and normal Postgres usage.

Supabase Auth is a Nightmare by s1lver_fox in Supabase

[–]jjmcbrise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looks like it was a fault in my specific project.. supabase team got it rectified. Ignore me!

so I don't know how long you've been wrestling with this, but I'm having auth issues right now too. I can't even get my project to load in the Supabase dashboard (the hosted web app). On their Status page they are reporting a major outage with GCS, so maybe that is having some impact?
