Seasoned software developer with a knack for tackling complex technical challenges. When I’m not heads-down coding, I usually indulge in two other passions: exploring the world through travel and creating culinary delights in the kitchen.

bmck,

Ah ok, thank you!

Is there a world where I can have a neverending supply of these herbs (parsley, basil, coriander, etc.) - maybe having a few different crops at different stages of growth?

bmck,

I’m a big fan of Adam Liaw. Very thorough slow paced and technical videos

bmck,

Our house has ducted evaporative cooling. It works great on dry hot days but is absolutely useless if there’s any amount of humidity. We’re going to get a split system in our bedroom for hot humid days.

We’re in Melbourne so it works well enough for the few stinking hot days we get.

bmck,

Amazing resource, thank you for this!

bmck,

Stripe has pretty robust subscription management. And their APIs are a dream to work with.

Why does lemmy have it, so any link takes you off the page instead of opening in a new tab or window?

It is a simple line of code and the entire site does this or add target=“_blank” to every hyperlink, and it will do the same thing. It sucks that you have to right-click every link to open in a new tab or window and it is such a simple fix.

bmck,

Depending on how nerdy you want to be, hledger is pretty robust.

It would take a bit of setup, but you can automate transaction imports and apply rules to categorise transactions automatically.

Check out plaintextaccounting.org for write-ups, alternatives, etc.

bmck,

AWS Route53. Lets me keep all my domains in one place. If Cloudflare did .au I’d switch to that.

bmck,

I’ve been wondering if there’s a way to do this with actual bank accounts. I know with ING I can only have like 2 savings/transactional accounts (1 joint, 1 personal).

I’d like to be able to spin up accounts for these categories and use them as the “envelopes” instead of relying on cash.

bmck,

bankaust.com.au ?

I was looking at their site and could see anything about sub-accounts?

bmck,

I use PhotoSync to sync my Apple Photos to my NAS over SMB.

bmck,

What alternatives are there for ducted heating?

I went induction cooktop and will never look back. Gas heating and water are all we have left. Hot water is probably a bit prohibitively expensive for us to change for the moment.

bmck,

Thanks!

bmck,

“Cancel Free Trial” - I’m sure they would happily refund $0.

bmck,

It’s a free trial; you haven’t paid for any period of time.

I have “Apple One”, and under the “Cancel All Services” button, it says if I cancel now, they will remain active until the end of the current subscription period.

Searching for domain host

Hey guys, I am quite new to the whole self-hosting world so I haven’t done too much. Before I dive in deeper though, I’d like to know how I should choose my domain name vendor. Specifically, I only want a domain, no VPS or other hosting capability as I got some old laptops running at home I want to use for testing the...

bmck,

Cloudflare offers a lot of services, including domain registration and DNS hosting.

bmck,

SES is pretty solid and easy to work with. Free for small email volumes like your use case.

You need to verify your domain and request production access explaining your use-case. If you’re only sending to known recipients, you can just verify them and not worry about the “production access”.

bmck,

After the pricing change, I believe it’s still free (or negligible) for low email traffic.

5,000 emails per month are still free, at $0.07 per 1,000 after that.

bmck,

Would also recommend checking out the Bare Foot Investor book. Simple and insightful.

bmck,

AWS Glacier. I use the Synology plugin that does it automatically on a schedule.

aws.amazon.com/es/s3/storage-classes/glacier/

bmck,

I hope to never have to restore from there. It’s not something you’re to do frequently.

bmck,

Yes it sync’s a .HEIC and .MP4 file for each Live Photo.
