In my specific situation I was able to use this WAS-110 to get full speed PPPoE from my fiber provider (Bell).

As I noted in my other comment, AT&T Fiber doesn't actually using PPPoE, but anyway, glad to see you linked pon.wiki here. I am running XGSPON ONU stick (ONU on SFP) with the community firmware for my AT&T Fiber connection, getting native 5gbit throughput without the AT&T device in the path. pon.wiki is an amazing resource.

Do you use this with unifi equipment - or - does it truly not matter what it's used with since the XGSPON stick handles it all?

I do use this connected to a UDM Pro Max, but it's not really relevant what it goes to because the XGSPON does all of the heavy lifting, the device you insert the SFP into essentially treats it like an Ethernet connection.

Sure, it bypasses the supplied hardware but does not solve PPPoE limitations on UniFi.

I use the same WAS-110 on Bell.

Awesome! I recently replaced Netflix for Criterion so this is quite welcome!

Thanks!

I read somewhere that the military uses iPhones with the camera removed and wanted to see if this was something I could buy. The answer is yes.

Definitely!

It’s a fair assumption. The React part is more about copying JSX and other React concepts (declarative UI etc) but it all boils down to native binaries. The toolchain is also pretty nice. It does hot reloading so you don’t have to recompile the app while building locally. The downside is you get less for free compared to SwiftUI. But SwiftUI also has many footguns and bugs. No free lunch!

Lovely! Thank you

Cheers!

Came here to write this. I am getting much better results from Firecrawl (not affiliated with them, just a happy customer).

As someone who helps keep a site online with a lot of content, I have mixed feelings on Firecrawl.

On one hand, their bots seem much more well behaved than others.

However, running a crawler fleet which is deceptive and evasive in its identification and don't honor REP is no way to build a business.

I'd love for you to kick the tires on https://grubcrawler.dev

"they copied my idea by showing interest in my product and then copied it". What exactly is revolutionary about Firecrawl or your product? Scraping APIs have been around for over a decade.

I was the first to return markdown and use reader mode stuff to strip irrelevant stuff. Theres copying and there's talking to the founder sounding interested to have your team copy what I did in the background. One is fair game, the other is a dick head move.

Not sure about the first claim. But yes, talking to the founder, sharing details and having it stolen is not a good look. Sorry that happened to you.

I think that is a neat idea and it sucks this happened, but how long before somebody simply saw that feature and replicated it? I'm curious, had you considered a deeper moat than that?

This is especially relevant given AI is making this kind of thing easy at an industrial scale. I think we should all be looking for alternative moats.

Sometimes timing is your moat and that's all you need. That being said I'll probably start limiting my public releases to revolve around standards I want implemented.

I'm rethinking the sources of value moats are built around. It seems like the landscape is changing and dimensions such as location, perspective, experience, and attention weigh more than they used to.

> but how long before somebody simply saw that feature and replicated it?

This is a good example. The, idk, "value store" of your org just switched from products and services to the employees who understand your process from a couple angles and can write well.

Tell more. Crawling is not a new idea. How did they abuse you?

Railway is the spiritual successor. Fly is great too. I highly recommend both.

I really like Railway, and have deployed many sites with them, but got worried by their recent funding round. At some point those investment bills are going to come due.

What is the concern exactly? (Product/platform enshittification?)

I bought and tried to use the MP02 as a daily driver. Quite different from where Punkt is heading now. The industrial design is gorgeous, but the software was pretty bad (laggy, unintuitive navigation - Android on such a low powered chip was a bad choice). I can guess why, but it baffles me they didn't jump on the growing demand for dumbphones. If they had just released an MP03 with identical form factor but improved battery life, latency and screen improvements, I would have bought one in a heartbeat.

HTMX is a great choice for an app that only needs forms, validation and partial template rendering, though CSS view transitions are making partials less relevant for server side web applications.

For things with heavy interaction (drag and drop, chat etc.), I find the code to make it work with HTMX is just too clumsy to work with as a mental model.

multicardz is heavy drag-drop ui. totally based on htmx (I still need to get data from a backend, I use htmx to do it for a number of reasons.)

That's exactly what the article is saying.
