I just "activated" the option to subscribe to a nexus-share.com subscription - I don't know if this will actually work or be a good pricing structure?

What do you think?

"GitHub Actions + AWS CodeBuild – the ultimate guide for container nerds"

includes:
– how runs-on works behind the scenes
– ways to accidentally spin up a 72xlarge instance 😬
– the joys of debugging $HOME in a container

Only launch your new product or DevTool if it raises the bar compared to competitors. Not when your bonus plan tells you.

Someone out there is facing the same challenges you are.
They’re looking for your story.
Your voice.
Your perspective.

So share it.
Put yourself out there.
Be seen.

Personal branding feels uncomfortable.
Do it anyway.

Because your experience might be exactly what someone else needs to hear.

Are you using #Flutter to create modern applications?

Last year I recorded this video with Kevin around how to use Codemagic to provide a fully managed CI/CD system for Flutter!

It is still being watched regularly...

Are you using the Netatmo API or weather station?

I am now able to display my data on an ePaper!

Here's a video describing how I got there and telling a few stories of going through this implementation!
