A sales email in a tricky situation due to how the potential client responded or writing a personalized cold call email? Of course!

Edit: As I learn and get better at sales I imagine it’d get quicker, but I’m learning while working with the AI.

I do write something, and then work to refine it. Like I said, I spent 15 to 20 minutes on it after writing it.

I’m a software developer, not a writer or a salesperson, but I have to do sales to sell my software.

I can write a first draft of a sales email to get my ideas across and then have the AI look at it from a specific perspective I don’t have the skills in.

I dont just take whatever it says and hit send though, I have a conversation with it to tweak things i don’t like, remove things that I don’t think are needed or add things it missed.

Do this for 15 to 20 minutes and I end up with a much more polished email that won’t come across as AI slop with all the personal touches I did want to add.

With Plex every time I try to sync new content I put in the folders it says I’m unauthorized and have to close the server and reopen it.

Haven’t bothered to trouble shoot it yet as it’s annoying but not annoying enough.

Well, if they’re getting that big, that’s big enough for a lot of jewelry now.

For a long time (and maybe still currently I don’t know) they weren’t able to make diamonds bigger like people want. So for a small diamond it might not make any sense, but there was a point where ones we made weren’t meeting what people wanted.

I read that as feces and got confused why it was pretty and all lol

Closed PRs and Closed issues?

What if it’s a side project with 1 star, 0 issues (because no one made any) and no PRs because no ones done work on it?

Ya, that’s a really good point as well.

The stars are more important when you’re a developer. It indicates interest in the project, and when it’s a library you might want to use that translates into how well maintained it might be and what level of official and unofficial support you might get from it.

Other key things to look at are how often are they doing releases and committing changes, how long bugs are left open, if pull requests sit there forever without being merged in etc.

I saw a recent article that’d be great for their first

How as a shopper would you ever reliably know the price of anything you buy if the price can change between picking it up and taking it to the checkout?

It’s one thing if they change prices daily before the store opens, but mid shopping?

Kinda defeats the purpose of doing it private and local.

I wouldn’t trust any claims a 3rd party service makes with regards to being private.

🤢

I feel like something like https://www.storj.io/ is on the path to what we would want/need?

There might be some additional requirements for a true CDN to ensure data is closer to where it’s needed and in as many regions as needed though with the right amount of bandwidth. The data gets stored all over the place, but that doesn’t mean its optimal. But they do seem to claim it’s faster on their website…

Edit: For those not wanting to click, TLDR is they use excess storage around the world and make it accessible anywhere, and safe from failures. People with excess storage can join the network if they have enough storage/bandwidth and pass some tests. Their API is S3 compatible.

Something something googles ai search results will now suggest doing this under peer pressure

You can try Kotlin Compose Multiplatform.

It can target JVM (windows, Linux, Mac) and then work on iOS and Android.

Android and JVM are stable. IOS is alpha and works well. Should be beta this year.

WASM support is coming as well but is experimental.

You can do as much multiplatform as you want and do as much platform specific as you want.

Compose itself is a declarative UI framework. Your UI is code.

Edit: You do require a Windows, Linux, and Mac machine to build the executables for each desktop JVM app, as well as a Mac for an iOS app. Android you can build on any of them.

I’d greatly appreciate a “requires account” on app stores.

Just saw your edit. I think I got a better idea of what you meant now with what PalmOS had. Such a shame about requiring an account to use the apps that are available. I get why they might do it if you want to share data across devices / platforms, but if you only want it locally and you’re okay with that, they should let you make that choice, especially for desktop apps.

So what do you really want when you say journaling your peogess.

Is that something like

Recurring Fitness Run 5k 2 times a week.

As you check it off for number one, it prompts you to leave a note about it? And maybe you can see all your notes by category or chronologically?

Or is the journaling a completely separate thing? I can see how the two might not be done as separate things as you’re really getting into 2 wholly different apps.
