I didn't realize his affair would be so catchy. 🎵

Thank your for your patience during this difficult time. 🤠

Background:

Upgraded the DB so it was faster → API bottleneck changed to TypeSense calls (search)

TypeSense server spiked to 100% CPU to keep up → Added more resources

Now: Hardcover main site gets 5 search req/sec through the API 😅 Will for sure need to rearchitect this.

Ohh that sounds like a fun role, that’s right in line with what I’ve seen you exploring! Congrats!

Haha that sounds very familiar. Back in the day of early eggdrop bots and channels having websites.

One of my first sites was for an IRC channel too! It used frames, had a flash navigation in that frame, and sounds on hover. 🙈

Ohh, I probably won’t, but someone else from Libro.fm will be. I volunteered for this one because the usual rep is on sabbatical and I thought it’d be fun. 😂

Aside from the setup bumps, it’s been a lot of fun! Helps that most people already know about us, so I don’t have to be a salesman.

Due to a shipping error, we didn’t have anything delivered for the booth. 😭 Fortunately some awesome coworkers got signage printed, and I picked up some books from publishers that are available as audiobooks.

Having nothing felt like that dream where you show up to school naked. 🫣

No 😭 I’ve been trying to get better at that though. My (current) solution has been to work alternating days. However there always seems to be something that comes up on the days I’m not working. 😅
