Iāve heard prime say just give it the one eyed fighting kirby so many times, and execute it few times, and there is no way to find it online, so this will be the link that I will come to, when I need to remember what @theprimeagen means when he says Give it the one eyed fighting kirby.
:s/\(.*\);/console.log(\1)
So what is this? # [1]
This is a vim substitute comand to replace text in the buffer. the one eyed fighting kirby is a regex capture group to capture everything between matches, and assign it a value to place back in after the match.
substitute in a nutshell, :s/<what you want to replace>/<what you want to replace with>
More examples # [2]
Here is a contrived example of text.
here there
from here go there
here = some_fuction(there)
Now for some reason I want to switch all of the words here and there. I can do that with three capture groups, \1 is here, \2 is everything between, \3 is there.
:%s/\(here\)\(.*\)\(there\)/\3\2\1
Just give it the one eyed fighting kirby
~Prime
still struggling # [3]
I thought this explaination from phind was good and more verbose than mine.

Read a Range of Data - LIMIT and OFFSET - SQLModel
SQLModel, SQL databases in Python, designed for simplicity, compatibility, and robustness.
sqlmodel.tiangolo.com [1]
Today I was running some sqlmodel queries through the sqlalchemy orm. Admittedly Iāve not done enough orm queries before, and Iāve done quite a bit of raw sql. I was trying to get objects from two separate models that had relationships setup.
session.query(User, Images).where(User.id == 3).all()
It is incredibly slow, and gives me the following warning.
SELECT statement has a cartesian product between FROM element(s)
What I learned from the SQLModel docs is that you should give it a join to correct this and go much faster.
session.query(User, Images).join(Images).where(User.id == 3).all()

So after months of fighting with gf not going to template files, I finally

This was the dumbest keybind in my config, that I copied from someone else

open a template file, but it is trying to open a new file ./base.html

Template Designer Documentation ā Jinja Documentation (3.1.x)

html [2] code generated by my jinja templates generally look half garbage because of indents and whitespace all over the place. I just learned about these pesky Whitespace Control characters that can get rid of the whitespace added from templating.
You can also strip whitespace in templates by hand. If you add a minus sign (-) to the start or end of a block (e.g. a For tag), a comment, or a variable expression, the whitespaces before or after that block will be removed:
{% for item in seq -%}

I just learned that if you can exec into the container running minecraft with the itzg/minecraft container you can run rcon-cli to get command access to the server.

Theoās response puts a lot of my feelings about unit testing into words. Many
of us have grown up in this world preaching unit testing. We often hear these
statements āEverything must be unit tested, tests make code more maintainable.ā
In reality when we are not writing complex low level code unit tests are
probably the wrong approach.

So much of software engineering is assembling existing well tested code. Crud

This kind of reminds me of Manufacturing. Individual components are QA tested

You can even inverse it by flipping True to False and re activate the subscription.

Today I am working on fokais.com, trying to get to a point where I can launch
by workig through stripe integrations. This is my first time using stripe, so
there has been quite a bit to learn, and I am probably building in more than I
need to before launching, but I am learning, and not in a rush to launch.
I am building the fokais backent in python primarilyt with fastapi [1] and sqlmodel
on sqlite. My billing integration is going to be all Stripe.
Stripe Subscription Cancellations Docs # [2]
Here is a link to the stripe docs for your refrence, especially if you want to
see how to cancel subscriptions in other languages. They include code samples
for many popular languages.

User Model # [4]
This is the part of the user model that includes the cancel and reactivate
methods. It pretty much follows the stripe guide.
class UserBase(SQLModel, table=False): # type: ignore[call-arg]
username: str = Field(unique=True)
full_name: str
email: str
email_verified: bool = False
disabled: bool = False
signup_date: Optional[datetime] = Field(default_factory=datetime.utcnow)
stripe_customer_id: Optional[str]
def cancel_subscription(self):
for subscription in self.active_sub...

You can find your customers next billing date through the stripe api by using Invoice. and passing in customer, customer_details, subscription, or schedule.
import stripe
stripe.api_key = "sk_test_51ODvHtB26msLKqCAPBAo1qkBBuIfT5tQBX6YFWCLMsPixIExxITCRVa9tNCIqkdQS8olhR79NYXsFWBPKsM3LbGO00zEcNQfNI"
invoice = stripe.Invoice.upcoming(customer="cus_NeZwdNtLEOXuvB")
Within the invoice, you can find the next_payment_attempt as a epoch.
date = datetime.fromtimestamp(invoice.next_payment_attempt)
amount = invoice.amount_due
currency = invoice.currency

Search
Use the search APIs to look up and retrieve objects in your Stripe data. Using search is a faster alternative to paginating through all resources.
stripe.com [1]
Stripe has itās own query language for querying data. Iām just getting into using it and it seems pretty good so far. I needed to lookup the price for products. I was able to find prices for my product using the python api as shown below.
stripe.Price.search(query="active: 'true' and product: 'prod_P8SfwtxJ45cWE2'")

Looking for a Heroku replacement, What I found was shocking!
Your browser does not support the audio element.
Iāve long hosted my personal blog as a static site on waylonwalker.com. Itās
all markdown, converted to html [1], and shipped as is. Itās been great, Iāve
moved it from GitHub Pages, to Netlify, tried Vercel for a minute, and have
landed on Cloudflare Pages. Each migration has not really been that
hard, itās just pointing ci to a different host after the site has built.

What about server side # [3]
Now the part that I have struggled with is how to cheaply host a server
rendered application that can just live on forever without me paying for it.
This is a harder problem as it costs more to keep servers spinning, memory, and
disk all ready for you to use at a moments notice.
Honestly # [4]
I never really deployed anything that useful on heroku, but it seems like the
klenex of the bunch thatās why they are in the title. Iāve moved between
digital ocean and fly.io, and have had some great experiences with both. I
just donāt want...

Dang this is such a good message. I canāt exactly relate to being forced into the overworking situation that PirateSofware is talking about. I can relate to being conditioned to feeling a certain way and changing that is very difficult. I can also relate to not feeling like I am getting enough done in the day. Sometimes a bit of separation is good.

Iāve been using tailwind for a few months now and I can still say Iām loving
it. Iāve been using it to create some rapid prototypes that may or may not
ever become something, a document that is likely to go to print (a resume), and some quick
dashboards.
I started using Tailwind a few month back # [2]
A few months back in september of 2023 I made a case for
tailwindcss [3]. And have been
using it on quite a few projects since.
- values are well thought out
- itās really easy to use
- classes that make sense
- tree shakable
fokais.com # [4]
I started working on fokais.com only a few weeks ago, Itās going to be a SAS to
make blogging easier. Iāve started hosting some tools for this blog that I
really like that I think I can turn into a service. Itās been fantastic to
quickly pump out new pages with tailwind.

HTMX # [7]
tailwind and htmx are a match made in heaven. They both really lean on
Location of Behavior over Separation of concerns. They do really well at
making small components that you can throw on and endpoint and stack into any
page. With tailwind I just configure it to look at all my templates, and I can
guarantee that the styles will be in app.css, ...

page-break-after CSS property - CSS | MDN
The page-break-after CSS property adjusts page breaks after the current element.
MDN Web Docs Ā· developer.mozilla.org [1]
Iām working on something that might go to print, so I want the page breaks to happen somewhat in my control as the content author. As I do my writing I break my content up in to many short sections using h2, sometimes an h3. These are generally short sections that go together, should stay together, and typically are not too lengthy to cause a large white space in print.
I found a way in css to only allow page breaks to happen on h2 and h3, and it turned out perfect, suck it WSIWIG editors
* {
page-break-before: avoid;
}
h2,
h3 {
page-break-before: auto;
}

How to Build a Website or App - Syntax #696
This podcast episode covers a wide range of topics related to building a website or web application from start to finish.
syntax.fm [1]
Great tips in this one. They discuss everything from front end to backend, databases and ORMS, here are a few of my favorite points.
- Use good data or good fake data
- make it have some variation like long and short text
- Donāt use a database if you need one, static content is eaiser to manage
- end to end test, (does the site load page x)
- You DONT NEED all this complexity, you can deploy a site with HTML [2] and CSS.
