Mind reader. First thing I thought after receiving an email about the price increase
Postgres. Timescale. Wal-g. Tailscale. GitHub Actions. SSH. And Copilot.
32 attempts to make get it working.
Future is not yet here.
I guess I am doing itβ¦
I am not planning to move people away from hosted services. If you can afford PlanetScale - use them! They are great. But most devs are forced to self host.
And from my experience while talking to fellow developers - they want to see which query is slow and how to improve it.
Self hosting is growing, installation of Postgres is dead simple. But keeping it running smoothly it's different task.
Anyways... as I said originally. For now, just an idea.
3/3
the server and then the data would be displayed to the user in some friendly way with AI sparkle that would advise how to improve indexes and queries.
From my experience more and more people want to self host, but would still like to have UX experience of a platform like PlanetScale.

Glad it sounds interesting! Currently it's just an side project idea. IF I'd do it - Id like to keep it lightweight, building on top of PG native stats (pg_stat_statements, cache hit ratios, pg_stat_io). So no custom code on database side.
I'd build custom agent that would collect data, send it 1/X
Love PlanetScale's dashboard but hate the bill?
A $6 Hetzner VPS has 10x the power, but zero insights. You fly blind.
Iβm thinking of building "The Missing UI for Self-Hosted Postgres." β’ One-line install (Bun) β’ N+1 detection & AI Index fixers
10 replies = I build the MVP.

And then I found developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-f...
Wasnβt expecting anything different from Oracle - theyβll do everything they can to drag this process out forever.
Cloudflare Workers are great, but for me being unable point client domains via CNAME (this is only possible from Business account onwards $200/mo) is a deal breaker.
Clients often are not able to change DNS servers/provider.

That moment when your Apple Watch praises you with "You did it" for reaching your stand goal, while you were just walking to the kitchen for a pack of super unhealthy crisps.
I am working on #static sites #hosting.
I'm super excited for this project. Have an MVP, but I'm starting hitting the wall: is it ready? is it good enough?
Anyone would be kind enough to offer his time to complete quick form for me? In return can offer hosting credits.

The IKEA Markus is one of the worst office chairs on the market. I regret not spending more on something better.
@tanstack.com Router question guys:
tanstack.com/router/lates... -> auth.tsx file
Any idea why we do have this 250/500ms sleep in login/logout?
Is it to avoid race conditions?
To mock async call in demo?
Redis (or shall I say Valkey?) Pub-Sub here we go.
Something new I never done before. You live you learn.
I really _really_ want to use Zed as my daily driver but I keep on going back to VSC :(
Then Iβll take it as a βnoβ as the analytics by design will be simple.
Thanks for your comments.
Ok. So to clarify. If hosting platform would be offering analytics would you be interested to use it?
Thanks for that post, I just ordered "Deep work".
Hopefully it'll help me to plan better and deliver my side project.
I'm working on static hosting and am wondering... when you're hosting your site via 3rd party provider would you be interested in analytics provided as part of the service?
This would require to inject JS into your code (can be automated).

Here is mine, calculating this the lame way :)
Black magic! Thx fot the article link
Geez. Thatβs huge. You can get a whiplash ;-)
So today I learned that @tailwindcss.com v4 is keeping ALL vars in final build.
Is it just me, or they not needed? I presumed it'll keep only ones used in CSS classes?
Shall I use @tanstack.com Query in a project that uses TanStack Router?
The docs state that the Router handles caching, etc., for loaders, so maybe I should just use a decent fetch library like Ky that handles exceptions for me, and Iβm good?
This will be a medium-sized project - a hosting panel.
You live, you learn. I thought that it'll be 0.1 second... π€·
