is adobe lightroom the go-to app for both organizing and editing large quantities of photographs?

in my case, product photography (will ultimately be thousands of photos)

maybe the play with toolstash.com is some sort of content instead of an app... 🤔

(left is search traffic, right is app downloads...they're essentially operating as separate products/properties)

Anyone building an "AI-first Grafana"?

Meaning I can just connect various data sources and then use natural language to create charts/dashboards?

you’re guaranteed to have Alzheimer’s, but won’t see symptoms for 20+ more years.

what do you do in the meantime to delay onset as long as possible?

sanity check on @maybe.co content/SEO.

thinking what i do is go through all these high-volume keywords with lower difficulty and write content specifically for those pages.

good idea? better ideas? suggestions?

so how do i get AI to write git commit messages?

i almost want something that's sort of always monitoring code changes so that the second i'm ready to commit, it's already got the message written.

Rails background job rate limiting question: I'm pulling data from a third-party API that has a rate limit of 10 requests per second.

This is happening via Sidekiq background jobs.

Sidekiq has a concurrency of 300.

How can I handle rate limiting across hundreds of background jobs?

how can we make this little mini-tool for the @maybe.co marketing site more useful/interesting?

i’m increasingly convinced literally no one knows what they’re talking about with SEO.

guesses and hypotheses? sure. but actual factual knowledge? absolutely no one.

highly recommended landscape contractor quotes work that will take a full crew 3+ months to complete and cost as much as a nice home.

my immediate thought: i probably could just do it myself.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME.
