App wise I recommend just using the progressive web app (install website as app). It works very well, and you always get the latest updates.

For the server, find one that targets one of your interests.

That's such a capitalist way of thinking. "The daycare down the street is never going to compete with ABC Baby Slaughter as long as their rates are higher!"

Non EV owners can't grok how convenient home charging is, and the reality that station charging is a general rarity.

I actually don't think it is a deal breaker. How many 300+mi road trips does a person take? So what if it takes longer a few days out of the year?

And you can always prioritize fast charging when shopping EVs, if that's important. We knew full well we weren't getting the fastest charging EV when we bought ours. But, like I said, it was fine on our big trip, and really we didn't stop more often than we usually do, even if our stops were a bit linger, and it didn't have a negative impact.

EV owner in the US with home charger. It's the best. The convenience of never having to go to a gas station is huge. I was so worried about range and charging speed before I got the car, but it's all bullshit. The reality is that I wake up in the morning and I'm ready to go wherever I want to go. I take a few longer trips a year, and I'm always able to find a charging station along the way. The apps make it pretty easy to know where to go. I have a CCS plug, and we're supposed to get the Tesla adapter sometime this year. But even without it, we just took an 800 mile road trip, and there's a CCS fast charging station at least every 80 miles, so it's not like we were ever in danger of not making it. The only thing I don't like about the CCS plug is that they're so damn heavy. The Tesla ones are supposed to be nicer, so there's that to look forward to.

Is there anyone who likes reading code more than writing it?

I once took over an app that worked like this. Access to one thing? Access to everything! And they had a hard coded admin password in the server code. 🤦 The client wasn't happy when I proposed a complete rewrite. Eventually my manager begged me to stop working with them, so we did.

I like how the code adds a 0 at the start.

Omg, did you just invent MicroAI's? I love it. Huge potential.

I guess I'm not sure how others build with micro services, but using AWS SAM is stupid simple, and the only maintenance we've ever had to do is update a Node version. 🤷

Galaxy S24 Ultra. I got really pissed off at the Pixel 7 Pro and bought this on a (very costly) whim. But this is the first phone I really like since the Note 9. The screen is gorgeous. The software is better than stock android on the Pixel. And it can actually make phone calls!

The Note 9 was the perfect phone. Hold onto it for as long as it will run! I got a Pixel 7 Pro after mine died. It was a real downgrade. Got the s24 Ultra this year, and it's actually quite nice. Probably the closest thing to the Note 9 these days.
