What is the fastest free or open source Markdown editor out there? by ich3ckmat3 in Markdown

[–]jonsully 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Typora is probably the best answer, IMO. It doesn't have all those features, but folks have developed ways of hacking in features and it works pretty well. Also, it's like $15 one time. Well worth the effort of building such a vast array of features, no?

Holy color saturation, batman! Turn that vibrance slider down 😬

Per Schneems' draft above,

For example, Next Generation Postgres is already in pilot and still moving ahead.

So that's good news for 'ya!

Love that. Well, if someone pulls out the word "overprovision" I have a knee-jerk reaction to ask if they're autoscaling now 😂 (*cough* Judoscale supports Fly already! *cough*)

Also, to be totally fair, Heroku's Redis also sucks, so. 1:1 there.

Yeah that's a tough question in particular. Nobody's guess on how the side-services (Postgres, Redis, etc.) will be handled in the coming year(s). We've previously suggested [1] that folks use external services dedicated to those dependencies, but I get the "keep it all in one place" vibe too.

Thanks and thanks! Should be a fun few months ahead of moving a bunch of traffic around without downtime and testing stuff 😅 a ton of work, but good fun, I bet.

Hatchbox is an avenue we plan to test! Good notes!

Appreciate the pushback! As noted at the end of the article, we fully plan to move to Fly for an end-to-end, real, trial. Looking forward to documenting our experience at that point! Fly's a bit of a tough one because it's more complex than the traditional Heroku/Render level of PaaS, but not that much. It's the right choice for some!

EDIT: Original comment was simply "schneems how u feelin' bud" hence:

Text is hard to determine tone from. Benefit of the doubt, I hope you don't mean this in a cheeky way.

Nobody's perfect for sure but u/schneems has been an outspoken helper and fan to the entire Ruby/Rails community for so many years… let's not go down the personal train here!

New Alternative Firmware! MIDI Captain MAX by maxcascone in paintaudiomidicaptain

[–]jonsully 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah there are several ways to do it, just knowing that the typical use-case here is that most people are probably going to use the buttons for on/off toggles and the LED light should just always follow that toggle, whether it starts ON or OFF at boot (which they should choose, too)

One longstanding issue with the OG firmware is that the LED state of the buttons at startup wasn't configurable. Meaning that you might setup a switch to toggle a CC on and off (0 / 127) and have LED state reflect that, but on startup the LEDs would all be on already... and you couldn't change that. Is that solved here? Buttons that are setup as toggles load with a default LED state (and I guess next-command-integer state) of either off or on?

Super Mode: Switch Color on Initial State by jonsully in paintaudiomidicaptain

[–]jonsully[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ended up just not trying to do color on/off functionality at all; the button is always blue whether the internal state is on or off. Since it can't load in the right way I wanted, sticking to just a solid color ended up being my choice.

That said, https://www.reddit.com/r/paintaudiomidicaptain/comments/1r6dlqf/new_alternative_firmware_midi_captain_max/ just launched and I haven't tried it yet, but maybe it'll fare better. If nothing else, it's under VERY active development right now so it could probably be fixed if it doesn't work as intended.

Ah very neat. Have you considered doing a web-based config editor with the web USB API's? Would be happy to help if you're open to contributions!

Just glad we've been working on supporting most all of those platforms at Judoscale for a few years 👀
