Very cool!

Just curious: Who is paying for it? (How) is (or will) it be monetized?

Wrote about my first year of being self-employed.

Left my job in February with a mortgage and two small kids. Figured the timing would never be "right" anyway.

Ended up making roughly the same in 10 months as I did employed all of 2024. Also shipped two Shopify apps.

What would be your go-to? Plain HTML and CSS?

Yeah, I feel you. I have switched to Remix (now RR7) but that also had its culprits. I now prefer vite + Tanstack Router (+ Hono API).

Where will you go?

Try superwhisper. It is a game changer.

You can also easily switch modes (e.g. languages) via Raycast plugin etc.

4th year of being an AWS Community Builder 🙌🏼

This is now set up via AWS Bedrock and GitHub OIDC provider.

It's nice to have the bill in one place ✨

I have tried out the anthropics/claude-code-action for a automatic code review via GitHub action.

It is pretty cool! This one wasn't very critical but it was also pretty straightforward.

This small one did cost me 0.26$.

Link to example action 👇🏼

„a bit underwhelming“ seems like a huge understatement to me 🥴

We've updated pricing of our Shopify App 🔥

(not as straightforward as we thought - feedback incoming)

We wanted to try it out a few more things:
- Smallest price is MUCH bigger -> Target bigger stores
- We DITCHED the Free Plan and have only a free trial now

Apple has become such a disappointment in the last few years 🫤

Yeah, makes sense. No need for anything else anyways with a few hundred posts

Cool! What are you using for it? Anything special or some like a database ILIKE?

Here you go 👇🏼

I have just checked my site and indeed, they are gone.

We are trying something out with our Shopify app FraudFalcon:

We remove the free plan and add free trials to the individual plans.

I am looking forward to the AWS Summit in Hamburg on Thursday 😊

Who am I going to see there?

Haha, yeah, I also almost feel pushed to Cloudflare 😜

Cloudflare Workers don't charge you for waiting on I/O or network requests.

Meanwhile AWS starts charging you for the Lambda INIT phase (aka cold starts).

Is is 🤪
Thanks!

Hustling in a co-working space with @sandrovolpicella.com

The 𝗔𝗪𝗦 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗔𝗻𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 Page is live! ✨ 🎉
Currently, it includes 14 services/features, and we'll add more to our library every week!

Current catalog includes:
• The Dark Reader Deployment Pattern
• Polling vs. WebSockets via Amazon API Gateway

Server islands can be quite useful. They are the equivalent of NextJS partial prerendering. You can have a static page with dynamic server-rendered islands.

If you are a @raycast.com power user like me, I have some good news: the Raycast app for iOS is out 🥳

I have written my first ever Effect code 😅

I have no idea what I am doing, but there is something to it... Reminds me a little of Scala (only did one production project though).

Keep Functions Clean: Context Provision with Node.js AsyncLocalStorage Learn how to use Node.js AsyncLocalStorage to implement the open/closed principle, enhancing code maintainability and scalability

I have just recently learned about Node.js’s built-in AsyncLocalStorage.

In my latest blog post I'll show you how you can use it to follow the open/closed principle (the "O" of SOLID).

I provide 2 examples:
- database transactions
- logging
