now do crypto


and Django as the icing on top of this framework cake :-)


Just had a look at the repo -- I'm curious to know where this goes when you add vectors for semantic / hybrid search.

The use of commit-hooks is also very clever (mentioned here in the replies)


very cool to see people go deep in the weeds to make it easier for lazy devs like me.


Hmmm...if I understand it this is possible. The freelancer's client would need to oauth authenticate and approve the right permissions/scopes through.

Then those tokens would be saved in the database for your freelancer to use on their customer's behalf.

<notes_emoji> Let’s go back to a website!


homestar runner just had a video on this :)


They didn't invent the phrase for the cartoon?


It’s literally the reference I was making. :)


This crept up quite a bit during the pandemic and a lot of people just "powered through" which only exacerbated things. That had a compounding effect on which led to burnout and anxiety.

One left tech to join his brother in an outdoors adventure company where they rent/sell rafting and camping equipment and run tours.

I know another one who shutdown his zombie startup. Now he just manages his rental properties and runs a newsletter for a "ZeroHedge" type crowd.

No one seems to be getting rich but they seem much more fulfilled.


Thanks! -- It is in the backlog under "pending".

If this thing takes off and becomes a thing then adding those will be fairly straight forward.


Is the backend open source?

I wanted to implement my own WHOIS service and it is more complex than it seems.


It is not (I'm not sure where it is going. But here is a gist of that file.

This is in my requirements.txt

git+https://github.com/richardpenman/whois.git@master#egg=python...

And the meat of the file:

    import whois

    """Get WHOIS information for a domain."""
    try:
        domain_info = whois.whois(domain)
    except whois.parser.PywhoisError as e:
        return Response({"message": "Bad request", "details": str(e)}, status=400)

    if domain_info["domain_name"] is None and domain_info["registrar"] is None:
        return Response({"message": "Bad request", "details": f"{domain} not found or registered"}, status=400)

    return {"result": domain_info}


Hahaha. There is something in the aether today. I just posted here about my own similar tool, but doing it with REST apis.

Hey, I'm embarrassed to release this often, which is kind of the mantra around here, right?

Long story short is that I've decided to build an API service that wraps many of the most useful libraries and other services, even those "one-feature" SaaS offerings.

Be gentle, I'm sharing it to poke and critique.

I have some colleagues in F50 companies who asked to have a service like this deployed internally because of a number of bureaucratic reasons.

It is easier to get an internal API approved than it is to add it to the existing compiled/deployed software stacks. (weird, but it is what it is -- mostly about software supply chains)

Anyway, go look at the openapi spec and see that it is mostly just about scraping and format conversions (for now).
