When you use an LLM for summarizing your email, the data center that runs it is simultaneously summer-izing the climate.


Working on a prototype in PocketPages. It's a bit rough around the edges but rapidly improving, and I'm having a blast.

Feels like the good parts of old school PHP development, with database and schema management built in, the ability to fall back to Go when you need it, real-time support and a Dart SDK for Flutter, plus other community-supported client APIs of course. About the only thing missing for me is switching SQLite out for something like Postgres if your prototype ever grows large enough, but since 90+% of them won't, I'm just not sweating it.

Does that stack have any kind of support for real-time updates with WebSockets? That's one thing I still like about Phoenix.
in reply to Matt Campbell

If you specifically mean WebSockets, no, it uses SSE. So polling instead, but it does batch everything over one connection at least. pocketbase.io/docs/api-realtim…

This should not be controversial.
