Would you mind to share here or by DM where you ordered items from? I’m in Spain and would like to build something similar.

Thanks

Nice! I’ll try this soon, and I’m afraid I’ll end up using it a lot.

@jrswab, do you think it would be feasible to limit outgoing connections to a whitelist of domains, URLs, or IP addresses?

I’d like to automate some of my email, calendar, or timesheet tasks, but I’m concerned that a prompt injection could end up exfiltrating or deleting data. In fact, that’s the main reason why I’m not using Openclaw or similar projects with real data yet.

Yes. It is absolutely possible. We have been including for more than 10 years a pure C web server on some of our apps that is currently 100% compatible for both Android and iOS

License only mentions USD. So as far as you have no USD revenue, you are fine.

I would be happy if I could search my previous ChatGPT conversations! :)

You can see this today with some eSIM providers. I’ve just travelled outside Europe one month ago and tethering could not be enabled until I changed to a different provider on an iPhone 15 without carrier contract.

New comment by snadal in "Stirling PDF: Self-hosted, web-based PDF manipulation tool"

snadal — Fri, 03 May 2024 14:58:14 +0000

Not the same thing.

- Libreoffice can edit Word and Excel files.

- There are several tools to read a PST file. Anyway… pst files are not commonly being shared with other people so the need to accessing it is uncommon unless you already use outlook.

- Autocad and Quickbooks are far less used (less people) than PDF.

I also wonder why there are no more tools to edit PDF files. Maybe licensing issues?

Edit: formatting

snadal — Mon, 11 Mar 2024 15:46:48 +0000

I second this. Maybe I'm missing something in the value proposition, but we already generate PDFs from .docx/.html templates using open source libraries and Docker microservices.

Do not misunderstand. A Stripe for generating PDFs can be great, but for a small team, $0.50/PDF is way more than I can afford (after all, you can create a small number of PDFs without too much fuss). Maybe you are oriented towards large companies?

Nice! I definitely will try it :)

Nice work, congrats!

I do love visual programming and I use n8n a lot for my side projects. I really like its "delayed debug" features, so that I can analyse each step of the flow weeks later than it happened (i.e, I can see why a webhook failed long ago and even replay it step by step).

One missing feature that I've been working on is a "export workflow to code" feature. This way, once you are finished working on a workflow, you could run it everywhere without the need of installing the full IDE.

Again, nice work!

New comment by snadal in "Show HN: Rem: Remember Everything (open source)"

snadal — Thu, 28 Dec 2023 10:38:02 +0000

Surprisingly this is something that I have been thinking on for the whole 2023.

I myself am really bad at documenting findings while doing research or bugfixing so I started at recording all my daily activities for both replaying research sessions and also for my future me in case something is not clear in the docs.

Then I knew rewind and I was happy to know that I am not alone. This REM is the confirmation that this definitely has great use cases :)

I’d rather prefer the recording phase to be as lightweight as possible so I am recording the full mp4 video and plan to re-encode at a lower rate at night. But there is a compromise between recording quality and file size, I do not want end up with several Petabytes of videos.

What codec do you recommend for this use case? Lossy video codecs usually are very efficient for real images (just like the comparison between jpg/png) and I am sure a video format that is PNG based should be more efficient in space while preserving text quality.

I am very interested in read your thoughts about this.

Actually hairdressers will probably be impacted also because people would like to see how they will look like after their haircut :)

I'd bet that the current price of $0/month would be valid in court.

However they did not state for how long is offer valid, so they will be able to change pricing tiers later.
