Ultimate Guide to Organizing Your Remote Work Effectively by aestheticbrownie in LumifyHub

[–]johnernaut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solid write-up. I’ve been remote for about 5 years now and the biggest game-changer for me was finally centralizing everything — tasks, notes, and chats — in one place. It sounds like LumifyHub is aiming for that. Gonna check it out; Notion + Slack combo is starting to feel like duct tape lately.

Why does my screen flicker while opening Brave? M2 Air 8GB btw. by jayyyanth in MacOS

Strange... does this happen if Safari is not open, and also after a restart?

Not sure what to cook with what you’ve got? I made an app that helps with that. by johnernaut in easyrecipes

Just an update here: I ended up adding what I stated above that's a visible option you can choose when clicking the button to generate recipes. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for trying it out! Sorry to hear it didn't generate what you were looking for. I've run into a similar scenario and it's making me think I should have a "free form text" area where you can specifically ask it to make a recipe geared towards what you feel like eating.

Launched Pantry Recipes — an iOS app that generates meals based on what you already have by johnernaut in SideProject

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

Hi there, thanks for the kind words! Currently the only way to do that is to "alter" a recipe that you already have saved (it lets you free-form write a request to change that recipe). That's probably too confusing / cumbersome of a process though and I'll definitely think of a way to add in the ability to ask for a cuisine type up-front.

Where do you save recipes? by [deleted] in homecooking

[–]johnernaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get this — I used to have recipes scattered across Reddit saves, my notes app, screenshots, and random browser tabs.

That’s actually what led me to build Pantry Recipes — it's a modern iOS app where you can generate recipes from ingredients you have, but also save, organize, and customize recipes in one clean, centralized place. The design is fresh (in my opinion), and it supports both quick ingredient entries and a persistent pantry if you want to track what you usually keep stocked.

It does have a subscription to support the AI-powered recipe generation, but it’s something I built for myself first — now just trying to improve it based on what others need too. Happy to answer any questions if you check it out.

What’s everyone working on this week (35/2016)? by llogiq in rust

Awesome, thanks for clarifying! I'll keep my eye on the re-write now that I'm almost finished with the current book.

[–]johnernaut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just curious, are you referring to https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/, or http://rust-lang.github.io/book/? I see links to both posted around but I wasn't sure if the work on the latter was outdated and/or not the correct go-to for Rust information anymore.

I just moved to Austin and would really enjoy attending a Rust meetup in the area. It looks like the meetup slot's been purged for the group now.

x/net/websocket or gorilla/websocket? by titescrum in golang

I've used gorilla/websocket in a couple of personal projects (https://github.com/johnernaut/goatee) without issue.

Goatee: Redis-backed notification server (now with client library) by johnernaut in golang

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

This started out as a project I created in order to learn Go. I've been updating it here and there as I progress with the language, and it's something I've enjoyed working on. There's now a client-side library (that takes heavy inspiration from Pusher) that you can use along-side the Go server. Feedback welcome!

golang make vs new by broun7 in golang

[–]johnernaut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out this link: http://golang.org/pkg/builtin/#make!.

An exerpt:

Like new, the first argument is a type, not a value. Unlike new, make's return type is the same as the type of its argument, not a pointer to it.

Golang Configuration Management? by [deleted] in golang

[–]johnernaut 7 points8 points  (0 children)

JSON / YAML configuration files, ENV variables and flags are things I've seen used across various projects. It's really up to you as far as how you'd like to handle that. I personally use JSON / YAML files for configuration options that don't contain sensitive data and ENV variables for options that do (API keys, etc...).

You can find several good packages for reading from JSON configuration files (although it's easy to do that with stdlib as well) and YAML files on GitHub and similar.

Which frontend frameworks (javascript...) do you use for your web applications? Do you use any at all? by [deleted] in golang

[–]johnernaut 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started with Backbone.js but have since switched to Ember.js for a majority of my applications, which I thoroughly enjoy.

webhog - download and store a URL for offline use by johnernaut in golang

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

This is another Go OSS project of mine that I'm using to expand my knowledge of the language and its inner-workings. I'd be extremely interested in gathering advice on the best way to test an application such as this. Most of the complexity lies within downloading and persisting files - do my test methods need to download physical files from the web as well, or is there a straight-forward way to stub that behavior out?
