MiniMimic.me gets a makeover 🚀

Two great new features have just seen the light of day:
- A new landing page.
- A dedicated wizard to help you create even better prompts and get your thumbnail right 99% of the time.
Minimimic.me - Personalized YouTube Thumbnails by AI
Minimimic.me uses the power of artificial intelligence to capture your face and automatically generate striking, personalized YouTube thumbnails.

Native context menu to manage visible columns.

Working on my audio file manager with Tauri + SolidJS (and shoving TanStack everywhere too).

This is V2 of my open-source project "Pulp" - V1 is on GitHub (V2 is private for now but V1 is fully functional and free).

66 stars for a project I sunsetted.

Why? I'm building V2.

A performance monster for massive audio processing.

The optimization challenges were deceptively complex.

⚡ Tauri, Rust, SolidJS, TanStack

I haven't switched to Claude Code yet.
I'm sticking with Cursor, it works perfectly.

But everyone is talking about Claude Code as the new standard... so convince me: why should I switch?

Because I already have my arguments for Cursor.

10% CTR. Algomax just smashed his record with a thumbnail made on minimimic.me 🔥
With talent and the right tools, you can make crazy things happen too.

✅ List virtualization (thanks to TanStack Virtual)
✅ Data table (thanks to TanStack Table)
✅ Infinite loading in a sparse array
✅ Jump to a random position
✅ Header reordering
✅ Tab reordering

Hidden gem alert: Accusonus ERA 6 — pro voice cleanup tools, now free!
Once paid, now preserved on the Internet Archive.
Perfect for podcasters & video creators

Just finished one of the most complex front-end features I’ve built: an audio file manager with a virtualized list of 20,000 items ⚡️

Challenge: jump to any random item without loading everything.
Solution: a sparse array 🕳️ — only load what’s visible or targeted.

Smooth UX, top performance

- Custom Titlebar ✔️
- Custom Traffic Lights Position ✔️
- Tabs Drag & Drop ✔️
- Settings Window ✔️

V2 of my audio manager app: settings now have their own window!

Finally a REAL app, not just a webview wrapper.
October 17, 2025 at 7:33 AM
I bought a new Mac to get the updates. A year later, macOS 26 made me want to stop doing it 😒

Two years ago, I launched Pulp (open source audio manager). A few GitHub stars, then abandoned.

I'm starting from scratch

After one week:
- Tab system with DnD (a nightmare on Tauri)
- Custom title bar, (Thanks to Yaak for the inspiration. )
- Scan + hash API to track files

Perfect team for vercel CEO

Taming sample library chaos. (Built with Tauri/Rust/SolidJS)
Step 1: Choose a logo.
Help me pick the identity for my audio management app.
Which one? 1, 2, 3, or 4?
Reply with your pick!

I don't know why I strained my eyes with dark themes when there's sunlight coming into the room.

A small adjustment to VS Code to switch between dark and light depending on the system setting.

Do you have any light themes to recommend?

Vercel's CEO posing with a genocidal leader?

Here's your technical alternative.

Dokploy:
→ Docker Swarm orchestration
→ Traefik reverse proxy
→ Native scalability
→ Zero heavy dependencies

Self-hosted. Lightweight. Production-ready.

They say "SSR". I do Full-SSR ready! 🚀

Disable JS on MiniMimic.me - everything still works.
Auth, forms, redirects - 100% server-side.

With JS? Hydration + client-side nav for maximum smoothness.

Better-auth headless + custom client = Progressive enhancement perfected ✨

Theme switching: zero JS.

Cut my Docker build time drastically 🚀
Thanks to layer caching: if a step in the Dockerfile hasn’t changed, it’s reused instead of rebuilt.

Pro tip for Node.js:
1️⃣ Copy package.json + yarn.lock
2️⃣ RUN yarn install
3️⃣ Copy the rest"

Clearly, Stripe is helping itself to memory just as it helps itself to fees.

The right way to use Docker in dev in 2025?
👉 DevContainer + OrbStack = the ultimate setup.

Your IDE inside the container, VS Code extensions ready, ports mapped, everything smooth & stable.

Anything else than OrbStack in 2025?
➡️ That’s pasta without cheese. 🍝🧀

No more Google Sheets dependency in n8n! 🚀

Meet Tables:

Store data inside workflows

Persist across workflows

Create lightning-fast refs

Dedupe + structure data

The game-changer?
No APIs, no limits, no latency. Just pure n8n.

Dokploy is way better. 🚀

Modern stack:
• Docker Swarm (native orchestration)
• Traefik (smart reverse proxy)
• Built for scalability & HA
• Simple workflows, no heavy external tools

Coolify’s great to start.
But for a solid, future-proof base, Dokploy stands out.

A pleasant surprise: Formish (by the author of modular-form).
Simple, rational, minimalist.
It does the job without overloading the architecture.

Who has tried TanStack Form, Modular-form, or Formish? What are your thoughts?

Come on, let's try out a new trick from our dear Tanner Linsley!

Just published a tiny npm package: send your Pino logs by email.
Perfect for small projects 👉 no need for a dashboard.

I use it for:
- crashes (rare 😜)
- new user signup
- new payment

PS: Pino = super fast & lightweight Node.js logger ⚡
