It’s impossible to know whether an action completed successfully if an error occurs between sending the request and persisting the result

Sure, but this is not a protocol, this is an API. APIs that allow actions that cost money, potentially annoy users / effect your reputation in the eyes of email recipients, I believe, should allow the caller to supply a unique key to e

Another email sending service without support for idempotency?

Yes this behaviour is infuriating, the surprise autocorrect! Can result in some really embarrassing messages being sent..

This is the trouble with common names, the way to avoid ambiguity is to use the binomial name.

When you're having to work with someone else's godawful convoluted database schema you're sometimes really happy not to have to write the query yourself. Giving the LLM context with previously written queries can be quite eff

I've been having a bad time with email of late. It's been the method of communication between us and another company (a pretty creaky old product). I thought they were replying strangely and ignoring my questions "did they ev

sqlc always seemed like a really neat concept to me. I love the idea of being able to write my queries as raw SQL in separate files, would make everything so much more interoperable with other tools. Having your queries defined as strings i

Maybe, depending on where you are in the world, you could make some kind of GDPR request to get access to your data, even if you don't recover your account?

Thanks for recommending mailpace, £7.50/month for 10,000 emails is very reasonable, _and_ they support idempotency! Definitely makes me consider switching to them..

Please tell me this supports some kind of idempotency.. I fear it wont. The kind of hoops I've had to jump through to achieve DIY idempotency with Postmark would make you cringe, a shared lock to avoid race conditions, and then using t

Maybe one approach would be to pin all dependencies, and not use any new version of a package until it reaches a certain age. That would hopefully be enough time for any issues to be discovered?

All 7ishTB of images are also available on the internet archive, Flickr was a collaboration that allowed browsing them in a vaguely user friendly way. I guess serving over 5 million images isn't trivial and it made sense as a way to he

Yes, the dezoomify extension will get you individual pages, quite neat seeing the image getting put together client-side in a canvas.. shame it's even necessary though.

Pinned comment on their Youtube video 6 years ago "There is no option to download them. We will let you know if one day that will come!"

Hermetically open? Where's the download link? It really frustrates me that fantastic projects like this end up only being made available via some "online catalogue" with tiled zooming and no option to download. Just stick it

Wouldn't that be incredibly insecure? Attacker would just need to initiate a login, and if the user happens to click the link they've just given the attacker access to their account.. The reason why magic links don't usually

I get the same with Welsh, when having some network issues in voice chat it hallucinated me saying "Diolch yn fawr am wylio'r fideo." which translates as "Thank you very much for watching the video."
