If you have a product where selfhosting is an option, how do you push updates to users?

@olieidel @PierreDeWulf If you get private health insurance (which you can for a salary like this), you pay about 10,000€ less (but then have to pay for private insurance which will usually be a bit cheaper).

@TractionRoad That’s a really cool tool!
Unfortunately, for the data I wanted to look at, it (correctly!) reminded me that it’s not really possible to draw conclusions about trend changes when you have a small sample size!

[Ben Freundorfer @benfreu]

I've built a free tool that analyzes time series and tells you if there is a statistically significant change.

This is great to check your hunches and test if you really get more visitors since you re-launched your website, for example.

Let me know what you think!

Working on a new onboarding flow for @keila_io …

[Pentacent @pentacent]

@jsneedles @levelsio I mean … a straightforward solution for a straightforward problem!

[Pentacent @pentacent]

@eashish93 @levelsio They have seven locations in four countries (DE, FI, US, SG).

[Pentacent @pentacent]

Really looking forward to this! Content loaders sound like a great way to do custom pre-processing of collections without relying on hacky mutations (which is what I'm currently doing).

[Astro @astrodotbuild]

It's one of the biggest new features in Astro 5, but how does it work? Grab your pick and shovel: we're digging deep into the content layer.

[Pentacent @pentacent]

The @Cloudflare captcha is exhausing. When using @firefox in private mode, I always get this infinite loop.

[Pentacent @pentacent]

@ionleu They’re both fine, no need to bikeshed! 💪

@dagorenouf If you’re native in other languages, translations can be a competitive advantage because you’ll be able to play to your home market.

@PLBompard You probably still have a claim to that money even though the bank isn’t convinced. You could take it to small claims court or sell it to a collection agency.

[Pentacent @pentacent]

@dhh I’m really curious about Kamal Proxy! Is it a Ruby app or did you choose a different language for it?

[Pentacent @pentacent]

@benfreu Interesting post! I really liked the practical advice for the five stages.
I think for @keila_io, most people are probably in the "solution aware" category and it’s a matter of showing them that Keila is the best newsletter tool. Would you agree?

[Pentacent @pentacent]

@sirgi__ Both need to have a bit more contrast. In option B, the secondary copy in the box on the right is barely legible. But also the main copy ("drop your file here") is also too low-contrast. There are tools that help you check if your contrast is high enough: https://t.co/fGsk782qq0

People are being so dramatic. Who cares, it’s a cellphone.

The people who claimed the ‘EU version of iOS is the most fun version of iOS’ are awful quiet today

[Josh @hellwaiver]

Sorry, but I wouldn’t use a SaaS if I found out it was made with Cursor by somebody who can’t code 👨🏻‍💻
