I am used to store my secrets in Rails 8 fashion in so-called encrypted credentials, and committed to git.

The problem became: where to store the RAILS_MASTER_KEY securely?

Many people use 1password CLI, which can pull the keys out, but I didn't want to start using 1password.

Touchenv is a quick repo I spun up, which works surprisingly well.

e.g. deploying from localhost:

  - pnpm stagedeploy.  
  - starts touchenv exec .env -- kamal deploy. 
  - Touch Id prompt comes up. I have to confirm it with my fingerprint. 
  - Deploy runs.

Any feedback is appreciated.

The queries look a but more clumsy then but you won’t cause problems when spelling the column names.

  const [domain] = await db
    .select()
    .from(cmsDomains)
    .where(eq(cmsDomains.id, domainId))
    .limit(1);

Also: the 10 USD for James is way less than it'd take to even install your app and figure out if it's for me. Why would I waste my time like that? With James' app I at least know that it's well-maintained quality I'm getting.

prices were 2.6k usd and 1.9 for the quantum. Ranges are 100km and 250km

I will probably never buy a gas bike again. Ranges are not a problem in the city. They are quiet and fast. And I pay almost nothing to charge them.

If I complain about air quality I at least feel like I need to put money into companies that are actively working on solutions. Especially for small bikes it’s a no-brainer to go electric.

I love this idea. Problem is: it competes with "Hey Claude, take this diagram and animate it". The results are different (worse / better in different regards), but you can modify it more to your liking.

Maybe I'm not seeing the exact use case. I was very close to buying the plan (3 usd / m is a steal), but with Claude I can be more specific what I want.

This graph here has display issues. And the CPU is used waay too much on firefox

``` flowchart TD Step1["*Step 1: POC* (4 weeks)

Best way to to train yourself to win again. Start, finish, and celebrate a 1h task. Then half day. etc

the popup for miles/km stays too much on top. it should go away after selecting it once.

I think that was Krashen’s input hypothesis. If I read a text in Vietnamese with more than one unknown word, it’s too much. Exactly one would do it.

Haven’t seen a tool doing that.

Cool project! I wonder what commercial use cases come from it. On the My First Million podcast they talked a about a company selling color predictions to brands for multiple six figures. Maybe you can find correlations and predictions in the data one day.

It’s been some years already. Back then he had an office and a couple of developers. Seemed to be doing well. It has probably grown since then.

We connected it with our Rails app (main reason was that we jse inertia-rails and React on the frontend).

With MUX you give it a URL to create videos. That doesn’t work with google drive, so we do some hacks in a background job and click download, then store it in activestorage. Then provide MUX with our url.

API and backend is good. Pricing also cheaper than S3 in most cases. We are not live yet, but it works reliably so far.

I do like scrappy rails views that can be assembled fast - but the React views our FE dev is putting on top of existing rails controllers have a much better UX.

The specs are great for 2025. Let’s wait for 2027 when BYD has a better performing model for much less.

I am all vouching for VW’s electric efforts. I drove the ID Buzz which is great. I just wonder if they could sell competitively without tariffs in the EU.

What they meant was https://github.com/oldmoe/litestack which has a lot of things built on top of sqlite, like job queue and caches. Rails 8 now comes with most of them out of the box.

My SaaS ran on litestack until rails 8 came out, then I switched without problems.

Once Rails 8 came out I switched it all over to the solid* gems which pretty much did the same thing.

Sqlite is awesome in the beginning, especially as there are no extra services to start (I only have a web process and a jobs process), all is sqlite.

Sometimes there are db locking issues (using blazer gem, so I guess that uses a different adapter), and I had to optimize some queries. But that’s about it. The SaaS processes thousands of job daily (mission control gem is awesome) and stable so far.

At one point our DB grew to 16GB because I stored all Api requests. Even then it was still fast (except queries on that api requests table).

Running four sqlites definitely saved me some time which I could use for customer focused things. Highly recommend for MVPs, probably more.

Idea: make an email opt-in and then new releases based on old preferences. My use case is always to go to DVDs/netflix releases, filter for sci fi and then high IMDB.
