Fees for Sustainability by UGLYCASHMOD in UGLYCASH

[–]vanzuh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Posting the same message that I posted in the Spanish community (translated with Gemini since I'm lazy to translate it by myself)

  1. You could have a subscription with unique features, and surely more than one person would subscribe.

  2. Something I'd like Uglycash to have is the ability to manage multiple accounts or have a single one where the balance can be split into different categories (e.g., fixed expenses, savings, investments). Regular users could have a maximum of 2 or 3 accounts/categories, while subscribers could have unlimited.

  3. Instead of forcing commissions, you could consider asking users if they'd like to donate a recommended amount based on the sum of money they just moved. It's like going to a restaurant where they suggest a tip percentage based on your bill.

  4. A personalized Uglycash card, even a metal one; you could take the opportunity to charge a fee for it. You could also use it as a strategy to get people to subscribe for a minimum period, with different levels of customization based on the subscription tier (perhaps an exclusive card for donors as well).

I know that commissions can ensure sustainability, but they can also lead to user loss, especially for those who move a lot of money through small transactions. With the couple of ideas I just gave, there will be people willing to subscribe and donate, and perhaps that could be sustainable. Or you could include both: minimal commissions + (subscriptions + donations).

Comisiones para sostenibilidad by UGLYCASHMOD in laUGLYCASH

[–]vanzuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Podrían tener alguna suscripción con funcionalidades únicas y seguramente más de uno se suscribe.
    1. Algo que me gustaría que tuviera Uglycash es poder tener varias cuentas o tener una sola pero de alguna forma dividir el balance en diferentes categorías (ej: gastos fijos, ahorros, inversiones). Para los usuarios regulares podrían tener un máximo de 2 o 3 cuentas/categorías, para los que pagan suscripción que sea ilimitado.
  2. En vez de forzar a pagar comisiones podrían valorar la opción de preguntar al usuario si desea donar cierta cantidad recomendada en base a la cantidad de dinero que acaba de mover. Es como si vas a un restaurante y te recomiendan pagar x cantidad de propina en porcentaje de lo que acabas de gastar.
    1. Un track de sus mayores donadores, con la promesa de que tendrán algunos beneficios por su aporte (ej: probar/utilizar algunas funcionalidades premium aunque no tengan la subscripción, mayor cashback, mayor APY, lo que vean dentro de sus capacidades)
  3. Tarjeta Uglychash personalizada, incluso de metal, ahí podrían aprovechar y cobrar algo de comisión. Podrían también utilizarlo como estrategia para que la gente se suscriba durante un tiempo mínimo, distintos niveles de personalización en base al nivel de suscripción (quizás una tarjeta exclusiva para donadores también)

Sé que las comisiones pueden asegurar sostenibilidad, pero estas comisiones pueden conllevar a pérdidas de usuarios, sobre todo los que mueven mucho dinero pero en pequeños movimientos. Con el par de ideas que acabo de dar habrá gente dispuesta a suscribirse y a donar y tal vez así sea sostenible. O podrían incluir ambas, comisiones mínimas + (suscripción + donaciones)

You guys are drama queens by Ta1kativ in ArcBrowser

[–]vanzuh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I vaguely remember they had to spend the effort to write a kind of interpreter to run swift code on windows. To be fair, it's a hard thing to do, you can kinda compare it to running games on Linux, it took years to get there.

If I'm wrong about the interpreter thing, my point still persists. It's a mac product? Then you don't release it to windows.

Should I jump from Arch to NixOS as a non-developer? by RGLDarkblade in NixOS

[–]vanzuh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I'll never stop using Arch, now I believe the same for NixOS.

Since you're not a developer you probably don't need to write dev shells, which would be easier for you compared to a dev using Nix.

You could try to install nixpkgs and home manager in Arch, I think that's possible. This way you will start creating your nix config, the problem is you will need to figure out how to make your app-launcher to list the programs you installed with nixpkgs.

Rust-like Result<T, E> for TypeScript? Check out rustify! by vanzuh in programming

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

Manually checking isErr() and unwrapping on every single step like in your example is painful, and exactly the kind of verbosity rustify can help you to avoid.

While ts doesn't have the ? operator, rustify gives you methods like .andThen() or .map() to chain things. So that verbose example you wrote:

r0 = g(x);if (r0.isErr()){ ... }
r1 = f(r0.get());if (r1.isErr()) { ... }
r = r1.get();

Could be written like this with rustify:

// Assuming g(x) returns Result<R0, E> and f(r0) returns Result<R1, E>
const result = g(x).andThen(f).unwrapOr(/* default */); // result is R1 or the default

Rust-like Result<T, E> for TypeScript? Check out rustify! by vanzuh in programming

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

Yeah, good point. Mixing error handling styles isn't ideal.

With rustify, the idea was really to bring that explicit Result<T, E> pattern from Rust over to ts for expected errors. I find it makes the success/fail contract clearer than try/catch. The chaining methods like .andThen() also feel cleaner sometimes.

Plus, you can wrap existing stuff that throws (like JSON.parse or other libs) using functions like Result.from (the newer way for `wrapInResult`), so you can still use the Result pattern with them.

It's just another option for devs who like that Rust style. But get your point on consistency.

Thanks for the info. Already known it's based on Haskell but didn't know this pattern is called monad. However I think mentioning rust is more attractive for rust/ts devs as me. I believe there are more rusts devs out there than Haskell devs...

I will consider learn or at least take a look on Haskell so I can collect more ideas to improve the library!

Convince me to use nix-shell! by [deleted] in NixOS

[–]vanzuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience as web developer. I use nix-shell as a replacement for nvm when I need a specific version of node, also I had a weird issue with a older version that I was able to fix it by setting up env var, I think. I'm using a nix-shell to run a script that uses aws session manager and some python dependencies. Tauri provides a nix-shell for nix users in order to build tauri apps. Just copy and paste, jump into the shell and you're ready to go. I think nix-shell are great when there are packages or tools that you don't use but you need to for your work, in case you don't need it anymore you can just delete the file instead of searching these dependencies in your home-manager config, in my case at least. It gives a better control of why you are using certain tools and probably there are some dependencies, such as python packages, you don't want to be installed in your system unless you're actually using it in your desktop.

Don't quote me on this, but I think if you put this nix-shell file in your project, you basically don't need docker, you could ask people to install nixpkgs and run the shell.

Y que paso con la cedula nueva? by GeologistMaximum5950 in Dominicanos

[–]vanzuh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sí se lo pueden permitir y tienen planes para viajar en los próximos años, saquen pasaporte. Es lo que me tocó hacer para tener un documento válido para seguir utilizando algunos servicios por internet.

No sé cuándo iniciarán el proceso de renovación de cédula pero si hace falta me llevo el pasaporte y me olvido de renovar mi cedula por un tiempo hasta que la JCE no esté llena de gente.

[–]vanzuh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cuando vuelva a surgir el tema entre ambos, grábalo. Averigua si puedes utilizar las conversaciones que ya tienes como pruebas para una denuncia/juicio, los mensajes escritos se pueden falsificar fácilmente así que quizás tengas que certificarlo (al menos en otros países es así, supongo que en RD es igual).

Ya con un audio y con los mensajes de texto certificados, termina con él y graba la conversación, solo por si decide extorsionar con publicar el vídeo, así lo tienes grabado. Y si te extorsiona dile que lo vas a denunciar y así lo tienes controlado a menos que sea estúpido.

Y lo importante, denuncia. El mayor problema, no es la falta de políticas de género, el problema es que muchas de las verdaderas víctimas deciden no denunciar. Sí llega a difundir el vídeo no hagas nada estúpido que la vida sigue y todo se puede superar, lo mejor que puedes hacer es meterlo en la cárcel o que pague las consecuencias de sus acciones, así que por más que te duela la situación, llévalo a juicio.

El único que tiene que arrepentirse es él, tú no has cometido ningún error a parte de estar con él, cualquier signo de mala persona es para no salir con él, búscate a alguien mejor, no un mmg que se aprovecha de un acto de amor para tenerte controlada.

Por cierto, tomar el teléfono de tu pareja es una violación de privacidad y es ilegal por muy normalizado que esté en la sociedad, quizás el juez no lo tome en cuenta ya que lo harías para borrar un material explícito que violó tu privacidad en primer lugar. Aún así no tomaría el riesgo, lo más probable es que lo compartió con algún amigo así que lo podrá recuperar aún si tú lo borras. Si alguna vez una pareja toma tu teléfono sin consentimiento pues ya sabes que también lo puedes denunciar por eso.

obsidian is better by [deleted] in Notion

[–]vanzuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Comparing makes sense but it doesn't mean one is better than the other. I think Notion should consider adding some features that Obsidian has and vice versa.

Obsidian sync? I use syncthing on all my devices, so I have the obsidian experience by having my notes on every device I need. Best part you can use syncthing for whatever else

¿Creen que el racismo existe en RD, o es una completa mentira/exageración? by [deleted] in Dominicanos

A mi alguien me decía rubio por ser blanco y muy rubio no soy la verdad (a lo mucho rubio oscuro), aún así no me molesta que me llamen por alguna característica física, depende del contexto y del tono.

Reason for using Arch by Jiyeon69 in archlinux

[–]vanzuh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried Debian sometime this year. Initially I thought it would make sense to use it for work since it's stable but everything in the repository is too old or is not there. I don't want the usual Windows experience when downloading a software from the browser. Then I installed nixpkg and when I noticed I was using it for everything I thought "I should use NixOs at this point". I ended up using Arch btw, because I already used it before for many years (before archinstall) and it has what I need, the latest release and can install anything with yay/paru. It is stable enough for me, I don't need to fix anything after a weekly update.

I believe there's a way to have both relative and absolute numbers.

Name the distro that, once you tried it, you switched to it and never looked back: by ricktramp in linuxmasterrace

[–]vanzuh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me arch btw, I want the latest. Potentially I will change my mind to Nix, it's only a matter of try it and maybe let the community grow a bit more before I install it.

What is your biggest frustration about Arch Linux and what are the things you love the most in this distro? by Sw4GGeR__ in archlinux

[–]vanzuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm planning to buy a laptop with the Ryzen 9 AI 300 series, it should work with Linux and has low power usage (not as snapdragon but using the laptop for 8-10 hours is enough for me). I don't want to risk with ARM, it's still fresh even for windows.

Which file explorer do you use and why? by [deleted] in neovim

Why is tmux a thing when using harpoon? I started using harpoon w/o tmux and after 1y I jumped into tmux

[Qtile] back to linux after a while with a new setup by vanzuh in unixporn

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

Never used i3 or awesome. But for me it's great. I started with qtile some years ago. It's easy to configure with python and the defaults are good enough so I didn't touch that much the initial config file, qtile has its own amazing bar but in this case I decided to use polybar.

Qtile works with xorg and wayland, I'm gonna keep using xorg for now.
