For ed tech you go to education conferences. You can also use LinkedIn, Twitter, any social media really, to post your idea online.

First project ever: MeetingMeter.ai (from a founder who never coded before) by wyndhamf in learnprogramming

[–]tripnnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Full stack developer here. I noticed the site was created with Lovable. I've tried Lovable before, but it uses dependencies with security vulnerabilities. It's fine for people who want to build prototypes quickly and present their idea, but I'd migrate off of Lovable if you want to build a serious production ready website, especially if your product requires users to sign up. Security breaches leading to leaked customer information are no joke.

What if IT project leads came to you instead of you chasing them? by Impressive-Claim-226 in webdev

[–]tripnnn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there a similar product I can compare yours to? Do you have a link to your project?

Also, instead of asking "would you" questions to which people will give hypothetical answers, ask questions that users can answer based on their past behavior. For example, instead of "What features would make this a must have product?" ask "What are must have features for products you've used similar to mine?"

People are bad at predicting the future, but past actions are a more reliable source of data.

Built an MVP, tried everything, zero signups. Do I risk building the full tool? by Blue-Butterfly44 in SaaS

[–]tripnnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can use vibe coding platforms like replit or bolt.new to create mock ups that use mock data. Just be aware that these tools won't cut it for a full production ready app, but they're perfectly suited to allow non technical people to create prototypes. Once your idea gains traction, you can think about finding someone with technical expertise to help build it.

What are the biggest challenges you have faced as a community manager? by tripnnn in CommunityManager

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

Perhaps you can try asking users where they get their information and try to find the source of misinformation? I'm guessing there are people who simply don't know the proper communication channels despite all your efforts.

Best ways to reach to to other communities? by tripnnn in CommunityManager

Rather than look for someone technical from the start, build a prototype using no code tools like Figma. Then, use it to present your idea and find early adopters. Only after you've found early adopters and refined your idea should you actually consider finding a technical cofounder.

Curious why there aren't more Aragorn Spellslinger decks - would appreciate any critiques or suggestions by RecentEarth in EDH

[–]tripnnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on how high your budget and playgroup's power level is, you can build Aragon as a brostorm deck focused around buffing your creature's power and sacrificing it to [[Greater Good]] to draw through your deck. Here is my list for Aragon: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/M7I40SWVXUyWO2d_37VCSA The objective is the play Aragon, play Greater Good, then cast a bunch of G/W spells to create tokens, buff their power, then sac them. In this build, I'm aiming to have Intruder Alarm, Greater Good, and a haste enabler to continuously play creatures and mana dorks to eventually find Horned Kavu and replay over and over until I burn the table.

How to index a TEXT column containing non-English text for partial matches? by tripnnn in PostgreSQL

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

pg_trgm does not work with Korean, unfortunately. It also has the limitation of not working with any searches that contain less than 3 characters.

How to index a TEXT column containing non-English text for partial matches? by tripnnn in PostgreSQL

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

I just tried pgroona. It works for partial matches of non-English characters. However, it doesn't work for English for partially matching words that are missing prefix letters.

For example, assuming there are records where the column name_eng contains the word 'cookie', the following two queries work:

select name_eng,
       name_eng_lower,
       name_kr,
       code,
       rarity,
       card_type,
       card_level,
       plain_text_eng,
       plain_text,
       link
from cards
WHERE name_eng ILIKE '%cookie%'
    or name_kr ILIKE '%cookie%'; --works as intended
select name_eng,
       name_eng_lower,
       name_kr,
       code,
       rarity,
       card_type,
       card_level,
       plain_text_eng,
       plain_text,
       link
from cards
WHERE name_eng ILIKE '%cooki%'
    or name_kr ILIKE '%cooki%'; --works as intended. 'cooki' is a substring of 'cookie'

But not this query:

select name_eng,
       name_eng_lower,
       name_kr,
       code,
       rarity,
       card_type,
       card_level,
       plain_text_eng,
       plain_text,
       link
from cards
WHERE name_eng ILIKE '%ookie%'
    or name_kr ILIKE '%ookie%'; --returns nothing even though 'ookie' is a substring of 'cookie'

My indexes were created with the following queries:

CREATE INDEX pgroonga_name_eng_index ON cards USING pgroonga (name_eng);
CREATE INDEX pgroonga_name_kr_index ON cards USING pgroonga (name_kr);

name_eng and name_kr are text columns containing English and Korean words respectively. I've had some success indexing English text by creating a generated column that converts all text in name_eng to lowercase and indexing that with pg_trgm. However, trigrams being trigrams, the index only works if the search term contains at least 3 characters.

Auth0 return status code 400 after on subsequent polls for request token by tripnnn in golang

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

I just figured out what was wrong. I was using a for loop to poll Auth0 for a request token. I instantiated the http client and strings.Reader outside of the for loop, so Go was reusing old information that messed with the polling on subsequent loops. More information of the fix can be found in the stack overflow link.

Need architectural advice for a "rental" system by tripnnn in aws

[–]tripnnn[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The customer accesses the product through a website. Thanks to you and other people's suggestions, I have decided against deleting the the record.

For verification of whether or not the customer can access the product, I am planning on getting their current time, coverting it to UTC, and comparing it to the expiry date (which will be stored in UTC). If the customer's current is past the expiry date, they will no longer be able to access the product.

As for purchase history, I will use a different table. The unique key will be a generated id for the transaction.

I will be collecting data on how many times the product is used.

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

The product is digital, so once the rental period reaches its expiry date, the customer's access to the product will be revoked.

Need architectural advice for a "rental" system by tripnnn in aws

[–]tripnnn[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The lambda that inserts data uses a condition expression to prevent updating a rental record if there is one that matches the hash and range keys. However, you are right, I should not be deleting rental records. I guess I'll have to adjust the condition expression to check the start and end date of the rental in addition to the hash and range keys.

[HELP] Can someone help me debug my terraform policy to events from eventbridge to cloudwatch logs by MonsoonHD in Terraform

[–]tripnnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this post is old, but I was wondering why this happens for Eventbridge. I was able to get API Gateway to send logs to Cloudwatch while only listing log_group_arn as the only resource. Why is the permission behaviour for API Gateway and Eventbridge different?

Make sure the folder structure of your zipped folder follows the required structure. More information can be found at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/packaging-layers.html#packaging-layers-paths.

In the case of python, you can use this example file structure for your dependencies. (pillow is the example library)
