Is the Google Sheets API rate limit open enough for actual production use?

I thought it was pretty restrictive, no more than 60 writes per minute, but I'm not sure about the reads restrictions.

Also this opens the possibility of running these models on Node.js serverless functions no?

That certainly also has to open up possibilities for on-demand predictions?

What a throwback.

This was the only distro that I could fit on a memory stick, which were novel at the time (and memory was $$$ if you can believe that).

I stuck this into a machine I made from parts I found at our recycling center, and threw them in a shoebox.

Good times.

We provide ID verification specifically for eCommerce to help prevent chargeback fraud: https://getverdict.com

This is the first where I've heard of using IDv for preventing triangle fraud on the fulfillment side.

Just curious - how does this fraud harm you the delivery service? The chargeback hits the merchant only no? Or are you the merchant in this transaction as well?

All of these distortions as well as a practical exercise identify and help correct them are available in this book called "Feeling Good" that I think was published in the 80's or 90's.

I've seen them recycled targeting different audiences but the same core principles are used. I just recommend "Feeling Good" because it's on Libby / Amazon < $5.

I started keeping a weekly spreadsheet tracking my BURNS score and made an effort to regularly write down when I have a bad thought and put it on trial to see if it fits any of these distortions.

That paired with exercise alone has made a big difference in my mood.

But that's just all anecdotal.

You can proxy your OpenAI calls through a quick Pipedream workflow.

Here's a proof of concept you can copy: https://pipedream.com/new?h=tch_OknfQd

The link makes a new unique API endpoint that proxies your OpenAI API credentials.

It just accepts a "prompt" argument in the HTTP request, but you can modify as needed.

If it does start to be abused, you can add frontend JWTs to check on this backend.

Pipedream has a similar paradigm, and Notion support as well.

https://pipedream.com/apps/notion

You can write your own "Sources" that can poll any API, it even includes deduping for free: https://pipedream.com/docs/components.

I build custom sources all of the time for scraping RSS feeds, WooCommerce stores, and then triggering low code workflows as if they are webhooks.

Serious question, in an interconnected online marketplace how are you supposed to comply with these granular state and sometimes municipal laws.

Is there some kind of monitoring database or notification that you can subscribe to?

It seems very expensive for every single business to have a compliance lawyer specifically for this task of complying with each state's mandates to a tee.

I'm from the Northeast Ohio area, and also from a small town like East Palestine. The lack of response from Governor DeWine and malice to not declare a state of emergency is infuriating.

This rhymes with Flink Michigan's water crisis, and Obama "drinking" the water in a publicity stunt: https://www.factcheck.org/2019/03/posts-distort-facts-on-oba...

Vote democrat and only see the elite placate the working class. Vote republican and see unions and the facade of environmental protections decimated even further.

The fact this isn't covered in NYT or headlines on cable TV is insane. How is this unprecedented disaster affecting a major watershed not higher urgency than fucking balloons.

Grew up 30 miles west of East Palestine. My family is still there.

So sad to see another struggling Midwest town dealt a death blow.

It’s beautiful country even though it’s considered fly over and “blue collar” which is politically correct terminology for post-industrial poor.

The EPA has roots from the Cuyahoga River fires. There was great progress made cleaning up the river and even turning portions of Northeast Ohio into a national park.

Proud to be a Northeast Ohioan. There has been great steps forward since the industrial hay day.

This whole event makes me so sad. This community will most likely never recover and I’m hoping against hope there aren’t serious health consequences or birth defects from this. Though I highly doubt it.

I like using Jekyll for my personal blog, and Next.js / Eleventy for quick sites. But I _hate_ writing in markdown.

Notion is really the best writing experience out there. You can easily make rich pages of content with video and images, but to add those things in a flat markdown file is a pain!

So I made a workflow that will convert your Notion subpages in a specific page to open a pull request on Github to your blog.

Copy it to your own Pipedream account to use it for free: https://pipedream.com/new?h=tch_OQlfe5

I also put together a quick video to walk through how to set it up: https://youtu.be/HgOWnJSGo6w

Long story short, you just need to connect your Notion & Github accounts to the workflow, and define which Notion page you'd like to sync with Github.

Hope this helps writing a bit more fun!

@davidfactorial, curious to hear more about your Discord! I'm a scrappy dev myself :)

Hi @inconshreveable, happy user for many years and have done some crazy ngork remote setups to make systems like gitpod / docker work with ngrok.

Question for you - do you have a plan in mind for handling teams?

Right now it seems like the only way to handle it is with a manual naming convention:

https://{my-team-name}-{my-name}-api.ngrok.io

And then every single team member has to copy this convention by hand and you have to register webhooks, etc with these new routes.

It gets tedious fast.

Do you have ideas to work around this or register team members behind the scenes and still route traffic appropriately?

Instead of hand coding a scraper or subscribing to email driven webhooks, and managing that bespoke code - take a look at Pipedream.com

You can chain together low code steps. An email address can be a trigger, or just a simple timer.

Then you can post results to Slack/Discord with pre built actions, it's a lot less work. No hosting to worry about either. You just build in the dashboard and the steps are hosted by Pipedream.

Nice write up, defining a serverless function is half the battle.

Pipedream also just launched Go support for workflow serverless steps, so you can write and execute Go serverless functions without managing deployments to Lambda. It's all through a Web UI.

What's the biggest cost? The disparity between the rev and net are pretty big

So TLDR - write integration tests as much as possible and only mock external dependencies like network calls?

Yup it's something that's been on the backlog for a bit and we're trying to solve for.

Here's the issue if you'd like to follow: https://github.com/PipedreamHQ/pipedream/issues/193

It is possible to make a custom source for ForwardEmail, and then emit 1 action per row, but that requires writing code outside of the GUI.

Definitely hear you on this pain and we're working on it.

That's a dramatic jump in pricing from 0-5 GBs to > 5 GBs.

Is there a more flexible pricing plan in the works? A hobbyist app could still be storing a large amount of data but not charging much to justify a $300/m db bill.

Was excited to see a tool to help me and my friends plan events - you know like actual go outside social things. But I was wrong.

I'd love to know if there's an above average tendency for those interested or working in the technology field also have a history with endurance related sports. I know a lot of really talented developers that are into biking/hiking/running.

Can someone explain in 3 short phrases or less how ActivityPub or another standard actually solves the problems that centralized social media creates?

I didn't know you could eat them! I'll have to try out this recipe thanks!

The other quieter announcement is that AlphaStar can play as multiple races. The first public version just showed playing as Protoss.

There's some controversy about the AI's field of vision. A person is restricted to using the small mini map for the "whole view" of the playing area. Whereas AlphaStar can view events without a visual restriction.

But, if you're into following competitive games the broadcasted match of AlphaStar vs Lambo is pretty incredible to watch. The AI used new and novel strategies that weren't considered before.

The AI showed that Stalker can be actually a superior unit to the Immortals if they can be micro'd efficiently.

My hope is that they'll eventually open up the API to allow the public to write their own bots.

I was hoping this article would go more into the detail of other invasive species in the Lakes like Asian Carp and those nasty looking parasitic Laprey's.

I didn't grow up in the Cinncinnati area specifically but Akron, OH is not that far away. The stories are similar. These are hard working, friendly and virtuous people that grew up on values that if you worked hard good things will happen.

However, it's not turning out to be the case any longer. I am so grateful and luckily to have found my way into computers at a young age. I really feel for my neighbors and family who are in similar situations.

I grew up in this place and I feel very proud to call it my home, I left it years ago but it's a special place.

It's hard to describe this feeling to anyone that didn't grow up in the rustbelt. It's so easy to take for granted the things you have and the money you made in our tech bubble. Outside of it there are many real people facing insurmountable odds to make ends meet with limited options for themselves.

I try to keep these things in mind whenever I think I'm having a bad day.
