I’ve been building Flare (https://www.getflare.app/), an app for people with chronic skin conditions (eczema, rosacea, etc).

It lets you log symptoms and triggers, but the bigger vision is being able to discover patterns, ask questions about your own data, etc.

Being able to answer questions like “Do my flare-ups correlate with stress?” or “What foods make things worse?” backed with personalized data has been helpful with my own flares.

Still early, but curious to hear thoughts from folks!


Do you think nonimmigrant worker petition adjudication is stricter at land borders, pre-flight inspection stations by CBP as compared to a filing with USCIS?

How common is it for CBP to deny entry / readjudicate a petition if a worker has an approved USCIS petition and an approval notice?


Adjudications vary considerably from land crossing to land crossing and from airport in Canada to airport in Canada but as a very general rule, it's easier to get a TN through CBP at a land crossing or airport than through USCIS but this also depends in part on specific TN occupation being applied under and the applicant's background. It's rare but not unheard-of for CBP to deny entry to a Canadian with an approved TN petition. Again, the risk varies by land crossing and airport with Pearson probably the worst and to be avoided if there's any concern.


I’ve been working on a personal finance app for the last few months that’s in beta now that’s doing something similar.

It’s essentially a personal finance app plugged with Plaid, autocatergorization and whatnot, and the dashboard automatically dynamically updates a Sankey chart of your monthly spending.

Shameless plug, https://www.conquest.money/


Looks great man! I think we are doing something different conceptually, my app intentionally doesn’t have expense tracking, and is purely about budget planning.

But I like the idea of automatically generating a sankey from your expenses, good job on that!


I love everything about the steam deck, just like everyone else here, with the exception of 2 things,

1. The touch screen hardware is there, but the touchscreen software needs significant improvement.

2. The weight. Holding it for longer than an hour is… hard.

Bonus: Steam store on the deck is essentially a webview - clicking on a game from the store home page then clicking back loses all scroll progress. A better integrated store experience would be nice!


Could you potentially explain your situation to Meta and see if they can get your offer back, even if it's for another team?


Is this basically kinesis data streams with custom source/destinations?


How do they find you?


I think that depends on what you're looking for. Technical books are always evolving. There's always new fiction. Self-improvement and business books, especially the best ones I find, are quite old.


That's what I like about reading technical books. I have 3 books (textbooks, really) that I'm reading right now, and I don't feel like I have to finish one before picking up the other. I can read whatever I feel like reading.

Even though I love fiction, I couldn't pick up a second book from Stephen King without fully finishing the first. I'd lose interest in the first one otherwise.


Any plan to add job task management like RQ or Celery?


YES! As soon as anyone will ask for them :) You can add your request (with the use case) as an issue in the repo.
