Be kind to each other. You never know what the other person is going through and how hard they may be working just to be in the room.

@buddhistwisdom7 Right, but it appears that you modified the screenshot.

Will provide the barcode, reservation number and screenshot of the confirmation email.

I am giving away 2 tickets to see #TheOdyssey in IMAX 70MM at @IMAX in Indianapolis TODAY (Thursday) at 2PM. Schedule changed and we will be seeing it Friday instead. Tickets are free to whoever can prove they will actually go and won’t just try to sell them for a profit. Bonus if you have never seen a movie this way before.

HUGE update today, version 2.1, which includes storm reports, a new flagship feature.

Storm reports work by sampling storm reports, radar, hail/wind swaths, and letting you know if your loved ones are safe.

Oracle Cloud is by far the worst cloud provider in existence. Every button you click you find something else wrong with it.

Why is upgrading from the free tier to a paid tier not instantaneous?

If a VM is within free tier, and then they change the tier, why do they disable the VM if it STILL is within free tier limits?

There is literally no way to start this VM anymore. Why was there no warning the service was going to forcibly disable the VM for not being within free tier anymore even though it meets all the requirements?

Everything about this product is just horrific. It was a pain in the ass to set up, and it is a pain in the ass to do anything once you log in. Highly recommend everyone stay as far as possible from @OracleCloud.

This app has been a labor of love and I’m very proud of what it has turned into. It recently issued its 10,000th notification to users, which is something unimaginable to me a few short months ago when I started building it. Completely free, no account required!

[WeatherAlarm @weatheralarmapp]

Our biggest update is live. 🌩️

Share warnings, discussions, & outlooks with the people you love — plus an hour of radar history, hail & wind swaths, and more!

Still free, no account required, no ads, just an app built by someone whose mom wanted to make sure her kids were safe

While the NWS website is experiencing issues, the backend services that many apps like WeatherAlarm use are working as expected!

[Jason Borchardt @Jason_Borchardt]

This is a huge update for WeatherAlarm. Now available for Android and iOS. Let me know what you think!

[WeatherAlarm @weatheralarmapp]

WeatherAlarm 1.10 is now out! Live storm tracking with estimates on when your loved ones will be affected. Feel confident in knowing we are watching for the safety of loved ones, for free, forever.

We’ve shipped a security-guidance plugin for Claude Code that helps identify and fix vulnerabilities as you’re writing code.

Available for all Claude Code users. Install from the plugin marketplace (/plugins).

Lots of cool features in the latest build of WeatherAlarm, but it took a lot of effort to keep costs low so the app can remain free.

[WeatherAlarm @weatheralarmapp]

WeatherAlarm is free, but it requires some creative engineering to keep it that way. Read more here: https://t.co/fLU7Qgkpyr

Hi 👋 — this is the official account for WeatherAlarm, the free iOS severe-weather alert app that watches every address you care about and pushes alerts to your phone within seconds.

v1.10 ships on the App Store soon.

[Jason Borchardt @Jason_Borchardt]

As of a few days ago, a hit a few milestones were reached with this WeatherAlarm:

1. Weatheralarm now has over 80 users tracking over 230 locations.
2. The Android app officially launched on the Google Play store! It is now available on both Apple and Google devices.
3. Over 10,000 alerts have been sent, with a record of 600 this past Friday when severe weather and tornados impacted the Midwest.
4. The average time to get a notification has gone from 2.5 minutes to 35 seconds.

I continue to learn a lot while improving the app and the server infrastructure to support WeatherAlarm!

The skill that matters now isn't just having the initial
idea — it's knowing what to do with the momentum once your first "what if?" becomes a "what's next?" The people who will thrive are the ones who can keep asking the next question, and the next one after that, instead
of letting the idea die because it was never convenient enough to pursue.

Avoid the courtyard @MarriottBonvoy hotel St. Louis airport / earth city.

No shampoo, hotel is literally completely out. They don’t tell you in advance, they just don’t fill up the bottle in the room and wait for you to ask for more.

Zero working ice machines

80% of the lights in the courtyard are broken, couldn’t have a team event outside.

Every toss and turn at night is greeted by the sound of springs rubbing against each other.

Reeks of weed on every floor.

@Delta Is there any way in the app to book 2 tickets with miles, and 2 tickets with cash (and a companion certificate) on the same reservation? Traveling with 2 kids and don’t want to split up reservations.
