I got Mastodon self-hosted on Google Cloud. All that sweet DB and storage scaling for a single-user instance. Anyways, send me a follow if you're interested in talk about 70s Rollerball. https://t.co/Q8gLpLUK3V

@thewrens I don't post here anymore, but I just wanted to say how important Meadowlands has been to me over the last 20 years. I've listened to it at least once a week since it came out. I don't see any reason that will change. It's been a leveling constant through my adulthood.

Today we’re announcing a feature we’ve wanted in Xata since day one — file attachments. File attachments make adding file support to your app as simple as adding another column to your database 🎉 📎 ✨

https://t.co/MZNg4pptkF

Attach files to your relational data
Simplify your application and architecture with our new file column type. Create a new database query or use an existing one to return files alongside your data

Global CDN by default
All files returned — images, documents, binaries and more — are cached on @Cloudflare's global CDN with zero-configuration on your part

One-click access control
With minimal configuration, choose between publicly accessible files, signed URLs or authenticated URLs. Security shouldn’t be hard to configure, just hack 😉

Image transformations
From resizing to photo adjustments to changing format and compression — transform your images easily from our SDKs or REST API

You can read more about the full feature set and implementation details in our blog 🦋

Looking for a brand designer to pair with at @xata. I can code up just about anything you'd propose. Could be dangerous! We're remote first, and this would be a gig with a lot of creative freedom to figure out our brand. We're also looking for eng roles. https://t.co/xCQmMiP9Kl
