Nate Hopkins (creator of Stimulus Reflex and CableReady) created this library that allows you to invoke any DOM method on any DOM object (including 3rd party libs) using Turbo Streams.

New comment by cavneb in "Ask HN: Will Ruby Get a Comeback?"

cavneb — Thu, 04 Nov 2021 17:50:35 +0000

I've been writing ruby since 2008. It's been the core language in my career since. I think that languages/frameworks are more or less popular based on your location. For example, Utah was an early adopter of Ruby/Rails and has become prevalent in many large companies here (Silicon Slopes). There were (probably not anymore) 4+ ruby groups that were within driving distance to me that ran each week.

Companies who choose Ruby/Rails I believe do so because they want fast iterations, agile development, and small dev teams. I think this also applies to Python/Django and PHP/Laravel as well.

The competitor to CarbonAds you are referring to is probably CodeFund. We ran CodeFund for almost 4 years. Even though we shut it down, we left the code open source (https://github.com/gitcoinco/code_fund_ads). Please feel free to use whatever you want from the project. Also, you might want to watch the video demonstrating how the project worked here: https://berry.sh/codefund-demo/

Good luck! It's a wild ride you are embarking on!

I am noticing that I'm not as sharp as I used to be in the code. What resources/techniques do you use/recommend to keep learning and staying sharp?

I'm one of the co-founders of CodeFund. Our goal has always been to provide a path for open source maintainers to find funding through non-tracking, ethical ads.

Ask HN: Which platform is best for building a support channel for my business?

cavneb — Thu, 18 Jun 2020 01:17:45 +0000

I run CodeFund.io, an ethical advertising network that funds software developers. In the past, we have used Slack to communicate with those in our network. However, I personally have too many slack groups I belong to, and I understand that each one I add increases the memory usage of the app.

If our primary customer base is comprised of tech-savvy people, which platform should we choose to ensure the least amount of friction?

cavneb — Wed, 19 Feb 2020 14:59:24 +0000

I run https://codefund.io. We have been focusing on providing ethical advertising to support open source development for nearly 3 years. We provide both javascript-based ad embedding, as well as server-to-server. Our platform is 100% open source [1]. We do not store any IP addresses, nor any identifiable information on ad viewers. We are even endorsed by DuckDuckGo as a viable alternative to Google Ads [2]. Our platform is whitelisted with AcceptableAds.com as well [3].

New comment by cavneb in "Ask HN: Google Adsense Alternative?"

cavneb — Wed, 30 Oct 2019 14:45:46 +0000

CodeFund charges a fixed price to advertisers based on geolocation and audience [1]. We pay on average between 65% - 80% of all gross revenue to our publishers.

This month (Oct 2019), we brought in approximately $75K in revenue. Of that, approximately $53k will be paid out to publishers next week.

If you follow our newsletter [2] you can see our MTD stats (including financials) each week.

Unlike the other ad platforms, our mission is to grow and sustain open source projects. We do this through ethical advertising (no cookies, tracking, collecting data, etc).
