lol i was wondering the same thing
lelo_tp··on Show HN: SQL Explorer – Open-source reporting tool that Just Works
loved the demo video! we need more enthusiasm like that, really shows how much you love the work you've put in :)
lelo_tp··on Kino: Pro Video Camera
I don't know much about the company and never used their products, but this article is such a delicious read: https://www.lux.camera/orion-from-idea-to-launch-in-45-days/

Really tells how much they care about their craft

Few people would notice how much attention was put into it. Love it, really tells how much the folks behind bun care about their craft
lelo_tp··on Show HN: Paisa – Open-Source Personal Finance Manager
lol, this is such an aggressive reaction. People won't always live where you live. Be kind to others, don't assume there's something wrong until you gather the full context.
lelo_tp··on Show HN: Paisa – Open-Source Personal Finance Manager
yep. That's exactly what's happening in Brazil - https://www.bcb.gov.br/en/financialstability/open_finance

similar to how the central bank forced every major bank to adopt PIX (our instant payment system), they're doing the same with open banking.

Sure, it's not exactly "open" for end users. But now, as a company, I can build a personal finance app without asking for my end users bank account password. This is so much better UX-wise.

lelo_tp··on Supabase Auth: SSO, Mobile, and Server-Side Support
Really timely! I was about to start building the Apple sign-in flow for my RN app (already built the Google Sign-in). Supabase makes auth incredibly easy, thank you for that.

If you mind me giving some feedback: it took me a while to figure out how to properly build the auth flow with Expo/RN. In the end, I went with Expo AuthSession. IMO, you're missing an easy win with a template/getting-started guide for RN. The only one that exists uses email/password, and the OAuth flow is more convoluted than that :)

lelo_tp··on Launch HN: Frigade (YC W23) – Faster, better product onboarding
Cool, thanks for the resources and being open about the feedback
lelo_tp··on Launch HN: Frigade (YC W23) – Faster, better product onboarding
Nice product! A couple of questions:

1. What does pricing look like for mobile? I'd love to give your tool a shot.

2. Why make your docs private? If this weren't HN, I wouldn't trust your product or think it was for real given the lack of public docs.

3. When you say you leverage the native platform SDKs, what does that mean for React Native? Do you use any iOS/Android native modules?

lelo_tp··on The abundance, biomass, and distribution of ants on Earth
Sooo, it seems they're living in Asimov's Foundation?
lelo_tp··on DRUIDS: Datadog Reusable User Interface Design System
Really awesome work on the "examples" section. As someone personally working on a design system docs, I admire the team's thoughtfulness on building that
lelo_tp··on Why don't more people use throat mics?
Imagine the reaction of your teammates after you join a Zoom call wearing this.
lelo_tp··on 10 Years of Meteor
Most of my startup was built on top of Meteor back in 2016-2018. Although I wouldn’t make that choice again, the productivity and “wow factor” we could do with so little always impressed our customers.

The coolest thing about the text is seeing what the original Meteor team is doing nowadays. They went to build companies like Apollo and Chromatic and found new tech like Vue.JS and Storybook.

Overall, I feel Meteor was too ahead of its time - being early and being wrong are the same thing in our world. Nonetheless, if you build a great team filled with passioned people, you eventually find your “thing”. Its just a matter of time, effort and iteration.

lelo_tp··on Ask HN: What do you do to recharge after a day of work?
as some have already mentioned, I usually like to spend time cooking. Like you, I was also feeling low energy. I spent most of my evenings laying on the sofa and watching stupid things on Netflix.

Working from home forces me to cook all my meals. Since I'm usually too busy to do it during lunch time, I was forced to cook them at the evenings. What I realized was that cooking and doing dishes took around 1 hour of my evening. More importantly than that, it became of the few moments of my day where I'm not using any phone/screens/tech.

That, by itself, gives me an extra charge. It's really liberating to let your mind disconnect from work and focus on something completely different.

Regarding workouts, I'm a morning person type. I hit the gym and swim 5x week during the mornings. But I can't stress enough how important doing something is. For me, skipping my exercise routine is the difference of a great and a shitty day.

lelo_tp··on One-off scripts: DevOps last mile
Making one off scripts a first class citizen sounds like an idea worth trying out. I like the way you explain engineers need to face the truth: bad things happen and one off scripts will be written.

I’m looking forward to understand your proposal around dignifying them.

lelo_tp··on Show HN: An open-source financial ledger API written in Clojure
Nice work! Very well done
