We got to 3k.

(someone will probably leave and drop us back to 2k)

It has been a while since I did a livestream in this channel.

Planning on doing one today to celebrate the 3k subs, and we will also build something. Anybody interested?

We will start at 2:40 PM.

Planning on building a very dumb sync engine that will work as a backend to tanstack/db.

Just started the livestream use the comments section on this post for questions, might unmute some people.

Summary of what we did in the stream.

Here is the recording, at some point i got tired of talking and started listening to some music.

Another cool hack club project.

[No One Reads the Original Work]

I think i just made my first tribute to ጉምሩክ today.

I went and got the papers from DHL, they told me to go to airport cargo place and give them the papers so that I can get the item.

Went there found the correct office gave them the papers, got told to wait, meanwhile I see other people bring in batches of these papers and get them processed, one guy even called his friend and apparently he works there and got his papers processed.

Meanwhile I'm just sitting there waiting, it has been 2 hours since I have been waiting, decided to leave and come back the next day.

Don't know if they will let me in to the airport cargo place tomorrow though, they only let me in today because I showed them the DHL papers but now I don't have the papers.

High likelihood that they are gonna get to keep it, too much bureaucracy to handle.

Actually this message is just me venting, it is not that bad.

Just remember that you are in a third world country so it will take you at least two full days to get it cleared by customs. Also don't leave the room for any reason just wait there until you are the only person left.

google added a pluribus easter egg

If i were in her position, i would ask them to build a pyramid bigger than old giza, like 10x bigger, she has access to all the labour and knowledge in the world

or have them build a dyson sphere

she has the power to comand all of humanity, there are so many cool things she could do, but even after those things are built, she is the only one left to appreciate them

launched a real time editing feature on a friday

just to make life more interesting

[Building serverless applications with Rust on AWS Lambda]

This is actually the first architecture i deployed on AWS when i was first learning terraform and AWS.

It is a great architecture to optimize cost, development speed and performance at the same time.

Actually just had another idea for a cool thing we can build on stream.

Serverless for your servers.

So the tool will be a reverse proxy but instead of you telling it which address to listen to, you give it a command to run to start your server.

The benefit for this is that you can buy a 5$ VPS and then run all of your servers on it. There is no reason for your app to be running all the time on the VPS consuming resources.

This tool would only start your server when it gets a request, and then it will keep it running for the next 30 mins or so and if it doesn't receive any requests in the mean time it will kill it.

So you would be going from 10 servers running on your VPS all the time, to one reverse proxy that provisions the servers when they are needed.

Will start streaming at 12:30 AM.
