I'm thinking of purchasing the Devin subscription, so I can give it screenshots of a web-app, and have it just implement the flows. But ... I don't know if it will be capable of doing so.

Has anyone used Devin for this type of thing?

I want to do things like tell an AI agent to "resize all videos in this folder to 480p", and just have it run the appropriate CLI commands. Are there any good tools that can do this for me?

I am running a t3.micro instance -- and doing about 8 queries / second. Not many, but it seems like queries are consistently taking 1-10 seconds to respond, and as a result, the site is going down.

I'm having a hard time telling what the problem is. Are some of my queries really slow and inefficiently designed? Is is it just that my database is too small and I need to upgrade it?

Is there something I can attach to my database that can easily tell me what the bottleneck is? (Disk, CPU, memory)

I have an application where once a job succeeds it needs to go through a series of steps, some are CPU intensive (ffmpeg, etc.), others require communicating with an external API that may fail (Discord), etc.

This is not a massive data-engineering project. I just need to ensure the steps get run to completion.

My current plan to do this is to just use Redis lists as queues, and then have steps go from one queue to the next, but I'm wondering if there's a better way.

I have a project with some users, and I'm trying to determine the root cause of churn. I've been sending the following email to my users to get feedback, but I'm not sure if it's any good. Does anyone here who is more experienced have suggestions on what I should do?

Hi,

I'm X--the guy behind Y. I'm trying to improve the product, and I'd love to chat with you about your experience using it. You're one of my earliest users, so your thoughts--positive and negative--could really help me understand what I should prioritize as I continue to improve Y. Do you have any time for a 15 minute chat in the next few days?

Best, [My Name]

My server runs a core loop that must do an iteration at least once a minute. If it fails to do an iteration, I should be notified.

What's the easiest way to do this? Seems like I can either: 1. ping a service like healthchecks.io at the start of a loop or 2. expose some HTTP endpoint indicating whether the loop is running on time

Not sure if both are equivalent

I'm using Sentry right now, but the scopes field is limiting the size of the items we can provide.

Is there some other logging service we can use that has less size limits?

I'm running a NodeJS server that currently prints nice logs to the console using the `debug` package. As the server gets more busy, I would like to print my logs as pretty graphs (N users on the platform at Y time, etc.)

It seems like the correct thing to use is Grafana + Loki, or something like the elastic stack. But these are far too heavyweight. Is there some dead simple solution I can use to visualize my logs well.

Anything that runs in a docker container should be OK.

Last ditch tech support question, but was wondering if anyone else has run into the following issue with R2: When transferring a moderate amount of files (~ 50+), the last file often takes a very long time to transfer, even though it seems like it has fully transferred.

For example, here's the rclone output:

  Transferred:      146.271M / 146.271 MBytes, 100%, 2.600 MBytes/s, ETA 0s
  Transferred:          161 / 162, 99%
  Elapsed time:        56.9s
  Transferring:
   *                          my_last_file.jpg:100% /24.872k, 261/s, 0s

For example: If you make a chat bot and let the user regenerate their responses; then there is an implicit preference ranking of the chatbot responses. Do any of you keep track of this?

I'm running a NextJS application with sqlite as the backend. Would be useful to have a dead simple admin panel where I can view all the data in the database.

Ideally, I could just plug it into my existing express server. Googling around, there don't seem to be a ton of good options.

For postgres, there are a variety of realtime options, including postgraphile or supabase's realtime.

What about for sqlite? Does anything similar exist?

(I want to get notified when an event is done)
