I watch a lot of chess games. So much so the board is burnt into my TV screen. 😅 You can even see @agadmator’s golden chocobo in the top right.

🔥 ANNOUNCING @FLIGHTCONTROL V3 🔥

Unveiling our true identity as a Platform-as-a-Service

There are many PaaS, but none as reliable, customizable, and affordable at scale as Flightcontrol ✨

🎒 We abhor one-size-fits-all thinking and overly prescriptive solutions. Our product enables you to take responsibility for critical decisions instead of us ushering you into The One True Way™️

🤝 We treat our customers right. And not just right, we go above and beyond to make you as successful as possible.

🌱 We thrive on sustainability. We are now long-term sustainable and do not need any more funding to continue thriving and growing!

🔎 We operate with utmost fairness and transparency. We'll never force you into an enterprise plan based on some unexpected usage that was too hard for you to estimate.

V3 is a HUGE improvement for us:

Deploy your apps with:

🏎️ 2-6x faster builds than every other PaaS with brand new build system!!

🤑 50-75% cheaper compute at scale than other PaaS with new ECS+EC2 support (unlocks ability to save even more with Reserved Instance pricing)

👾 now serving AI & video workloads with GPU support

🫣 new private web services not exposed to internet

✈️ scale further with server sizes up to 24,000 GB of RAM

🗿near perfect reliability because we use native AWS infra w/o custom layers

🧘‍♀️ utmost flexibility because it deploys to your AWS where you can customize or integrate anything, should the need arise

💰 Use your AWS credits to pay for infra AND Flightcontrol, because we are now on AWS marketplace!

How is all this possible?

You get all this in exchange for taking 1 minute to create & connect an AWS account (really, it’s not hard!)

Our bring-your-own AWS model enables us to leap-frog traditional PaaS on almost every metric. We don’t have to reinvent the wheel like other PaaS. We let AWS do what it’s best at, and that frees us to invest everything in DX and features.

Does AWS strike fear in your heart?

Fear not, we guarantee support for ALL the AWS stuff we manage. We handle it all for you, like any other PaaS. And with strict compute controls, you don't have to worry about run away costs.

We don't have millions of free users, so we can focus on providing a high level of support to our paying customers.

What to look forward to?

Lambda y'all!!! Our next big project is Lambda support for serverless web deployments and event processing. Soon you'll be able to manage and deploy both servers and serverless from a single platform ✨

P.S. Flightcontrol is not for you if you want totally free or ultra low cost infra. We are currently optimized for scalable production applications.

@1Password Also, the 1password CLI is fantastic for safe integration of team vaults with command line tools. We use it with Kamal. Just ace. https://t.co/nqQFulz6tr

[DHH @dhh]

We've been using @1password for years and years at 37signals. Been one of the most reliable and enjoyable setups. It's why it's the default password manager in Omakub as well.

The problem with negative engagement is that it's easier to get without creating anything. Positive engagement usually requires effort. Building things, launching things. We need a little of both, but we need more of the building bit ✌️❤️

Researchers from the University of Cambridge developed the 'Third Thumb'.

It's a robotic prosthetic that significantly enhances hand functionality.

Super useful when your phone is stuck to one hand all day long 😅

Incredible on so many levels. For me personally I was jealous of the shoulder and wrist flexibility. Looking forward to upgrading mine.

@L2Cr26mo @alfredapp Oh very much yes! I love Alfred. 🥰 One of the first apps I install on every new Mac. I personally use Quick Access directly within 1Password, but Alfred integration is still available. There's a new workflow you can install that uses the CLI.

[Dave Teare @dteare]

Why @alfredapp? A love letter. 💌

[Dave Teare @dteare]

@imkh0 It’s not the default? 🤔 Pretty sure mine was.

[Dave Teare @dteare]

Unpopular opinion I know, but I really like the `Hold ⌘Q to Quit` feature in Chrome.

[Dave Teare @dteare]

@luis_jfonseca Indeed!

[Dave Teare @dteare]

@ryanrudzitis96 Ha! Yes, indeed! 😀

[Dave Teare @dteare]

@daige Entrepreneurship *is* hard. ❤️ Glad to hear you're off the lows and making progress. At the risk of sounding like I'm trivializing the subject (I'm not!), I found this super helpful: https://t.co/q0OlmcucWw – so much so it's framed and on my wall.

Rust once again pushing the envelope on what’s possible. Here we have an app with a 🦀 core that chose to use Electron to render its UI using less energy than System Settings.

[Dave Teare @dteare]

🤖 impressed me with it's creativity again today. Counting symbols in SQL is not trivial unless you live and breathe that life. My 🦀 brain definitely wasn't thinking along these lines at the time I asked.
