Plenty of options. I use sytescope.com with a funnel to sell subscriptions. You can sell digital content on there too and hook it up with lots of payment systems.

Connecting my website builder funnel system to multiple payment providers for various reasons. Not for payments, but for easy up sells or email marketing.

Working on In or Out. Anyone with Elixir Phoenix experience are welcome to help with the project.

Side project for Fantasy football offline drafting. We aren't allowed any electronics just up to date print outs. However drafting takes forever with stickers. I'm making a Elixir Phoenix liveview app to replace the board and player picks with timer and fun prizes.

I still can't get any LLM to use my niche API and build out API REST requests for all the endpoints. It just makes stuff up even though it knows the api documentation. As soon as one can do that, I'll be sold. until then I feel like its all coding problems its seen in github or source code somewhere.

On: Apple restricts Pebble from being awesome with iPhones

[thedangler]

couldn't they make it so it requires permission access with face recognition, thumb print, or pin to give it temp access that needs to be renewed.

With AI people will be easy to roll your own anything. Companies will be able to say clone sales force but tailored to our needs. Saving millions a year in sales force custom crap.

I still have mine and wear it from time to time. Can't wait for an update lol.

How would I tell this to use an api framework it doesn’t know ?

[wsxiaoys → thedangler]

Tabby comes with builtin RAG support so you can add this api framework to it.

On: Phoenix LiveView 1.0.0 is here

[thedangler]

Will you update the course for v1.0 of Liveview?

Thanks

[arrowsmith → thedangler]

Of course! I’m already working on it.

On: Show HN: OnAir – create link, receive calls

[thedangler]

What’s is this build on top of? WebRTC connected to something like twilio to make the calls ?

[bigmicro → thedangler]

Livekit. Amazing product and community, and has a self-host option. Highly recommended whether you're doing WebRTC or voice agents. First version (pre-launch) was on Agora, their API was a nightmare, highly unrecommended.

[Connect-EZ → bigmicro]

Would love for you to try our WebRTC service!

On: New iMac with M4

[thedangler]

I'm waiting to replace my 2015 MBP with an M4 MBP. I bought the m2 Studio Max and love it. But I need a mobile computer. Working only at my desk sucks sometimes.

[umanwizard → thedangler]

Why wait? The M3 MBP is basically perfect.
