Hi, thank you for this interesting project! Could you please give some technical details on the languages/tools/frameworks/libraries you used to create it? Very inspiring, thank you again.


Hey, thanks! The core is really simple: Django + Postgres, Tailwind CSS for the UI, and little bits of plain JavaScript for things like the countdown timer. I also used a couple of libraries like django-allauth for account management and django-storages for managing static assets in S3. The whole thing runs on AWS.

I have no corporate secrets here, so if there's anything else you'd like to know, happy to share!


From a fellow Django fan, I'm glad to hear this. Thank you for the info!


This is very sad.

I strongly disagree.


It sounds a lot like Europe nowadays.


Could you elaborate on that?


Probably referencing to attempts to push through chat surveillance laws.


What are you talking about? No country in the EU forces you to do this. Can you take your political comments out of a tech forum please.



That's like comparing apples with cowbells. It's one thing to mandate a spyware component on all the phones in your country and it's another thing to conduct surveillance using court orders against criminal suspects.


Classic Meta.


The world is changing. And that's good news.


Maybe you should stop using the overpriced Apple products, mh?


You are completely right.

People who expressed concerns or some doubts just a few months ago were attacked, downvoted, silenced and socially outcast.

This is not science. This is the opposite of science.


Well, at the peak of the epidemics, there was a whole industry devoted to claiming the most bogus things and preventing the people with the highest risk / benefit ratio from taking their shots. I made fun of the most hilarious of them too.

That did not make me any less scared of the "oooops" moment.

This will get worse (myocarditis today, menstural cycles tomorrow, maybe strokes and cancer later ?), then worse (vast number of people completely loosing faith into their docs and letting a much worse epidemy settle), then worse, before it gets... well, before life goes on and we mostly forget, as it has ever done and as we ever did, I suppose ?


People don't care about being scientifically honest. If we did, more people would be annoyed by internet atheists championing science above all else. Pushing science as the end all be all path to knowledge isn't the wholesome thing it seems. Some people take it too far and turn it into a cult


Ironically, his last name is "Ferrin". In italian, "Ferro" translates to "Iron".


Not ironic, just nominative determinism.


But it's more fun to say irony when the topic is iron



Sure, but ironically sounds a whole lot better than nominative deterministically.


Appropriately.


I find the beorg UI ugly. I would really love an Orgzly for iPad.


I’m working on bringing my org tasks to iOS (iPad included). https://www.reddit.com/r/plainorg Available on TestFlight now.
