Deployed at 14:02. By 14:05 was 2,300 and climbing while sat perfectly still. Jobs are image processing, 40 90 seconds each. is the default 30000, 5, managed Redis. Logs show a job starting, then the same job id…
Three weeks ago I added a top tier at $99 that includes a few things I haven't finished building. Zero purchases, as expected. What I didn't expect: the $29 plan went from roughly 9% of signups to 15%. Same traffic…
Two bay garage, two techs, I open at 7:30 and lock up at 6, then do invoicing and parts ordering after dinner most nights. I counted properly last month and it was 72 hours including Saturdays. I'm not asking for…
Blended red jalapenos and a bit of garlic, weighed the mash and added 3 percent salt by weight, airlock lid, ambient 20C. It bubbled hard on days two and three and by day four it has gone completely still. pH strip…
I can construct things cleanly, my seams are neat and my zips behave, but every woven top ends up pulling across the front and gaping at the armhole and I have now done four muslins of the same pattern chasing it. Local…
Built in the early 2000s, seller says both have been fine and there are no records in the listing pack. My mortgage lender has not asked for anything specific, so whatever gets done is because I asked for it. I have…
Forty accounts, eleven paying. I currently look at signups, MRR, page views, session count and a churn percentage that reads either 0 or 9 percent depending on the week because it is four people. Half of these move for…
Solo, one Next app, one Postgres, launching a paid tier in three weeks. I want to be able to turn a broken feature off without a redeploy and to let a handful of early accounts see the new billing flow before everyone…
Five months since launch, roughly 300 signups, nobody has paid. The tool works, people use it for a week or two, and the paid tier converts nobody. I cannot tell whether this is a normal stretch of nothing before the…
My outdoor lights come on at sunset minus 15 minutes, and it worked perfectly for eight months. Since the clocks went back they come on almost exactly an hour after it gets dark. The controller shows the right local…
First deployed project. Every morning the first page load takes around 1.1s, and after that everything sits at 50 70ms for the rest of the day. If I leave it alone for an hour or two over lunch the slow one comes back.…
Submersible pump, 20 gallon bladder tank, 30/50 switch. Since about a week ago the pump kicks on and off roughly every 20 seconds during a shower and the pressure noticeably surges. Tapping the tank sounds solid most of…
The towels smell fine dry and then go sour within about ninety seconds of being used, which is apparently a classic. I've done three washes now with half a cup of white vinegar in the fabric softener dispenser, on a…
Small cafe, four part timers plus me. Two called in sick within an hour of each other on our busiest Saturday. I opened alone, could not keep up, served maybe a third of what we normally would and had a queue walk out…
Offered a voluntary package with a decent lump sum and the option to come back as a contractor at a day rate, two days a week, starting after a gap. Portfolio would cover about seventy percent of spending on its own. My…
i have a nightly reporting script that runs on a small vm and produces a csv for the finance side. the data it needs lives in d1 and right now i've got an undocumented worker endpoint with a shared secret in a header…
Copying anything with more than one argument out of a blog post or a help page fails immediately, and typing the identical thing character by character works. The file was created by a colleague in another country if…
Moved a small site to a new host last month, changed the nameservers because the new host told me to, and took the client's email down for most of a day. I now understand that I did that to myself and I still do not…
1930s semi, we can afford roughly two of the four now and the rest waits about eighteen months. Everyone says roof first, but the wiring is rubber and fabric on two circuits and the hall plaster is coming off in sheets.…
Same pattern three times, three fabrics, and every version has creases running from the front armhole down toward the bust apex, worse when I raise my arms. I cut the size matching my full bust measurement and the…
I have about 100k in a flexible currency and exactly one trip planned this year, so this is not a long game for me. Booking with cash means keeping the points for something I may never book, and booking with points…
New job is business casual, the climate here has four real seasons, and I own jeans, t shirts, one coat and a pair of trainers. I have roughly 1500 to spend over about six months and I would rather not blow it in the…
Windows 11, external webcam plus a USB mic on an arm. Roughly one call in three starts with the webcam mic selected, usually after the machine has slept or the USB hub has re enumerated. I have set the default in Sound…
Two evenings of searching turned up three competitors. All between $15 and $25 a month, all with changelogs going back years, all with customers who post screenshots of the thing working. Half my brain reads that as…
Ten speed drivetrain, about 4000km on the chain and cassette. Shifting is perfect across the big half of the cassette but in the three smallest cogs it skips under pedalling load, roughly once every few pedal strokes,…
