Ok @supa_community, does anyone test their edge functions by attaching a jwt token (in order to work with RLS)? If so, how do you go about it? I'm looking to do this locally + within GH actions. Or am I approaching this the wrong way? (as I don't see much online about it)

I've only just discovered @HuachaoMao's brilliant Rest Client VS Code extension. I feel like a complete amateur having continued to wrestle with GUI API clients and version control for so long. Well, no more.

What cloud provider do you recommend for app hosting and why? I'm looking for a new provider to host my backend services and want a flat (low) price without hidden costs for staging & prod envs

*The night is always darkest before dawn* Originally from a Thomas Fuller poem and probably quoted in many a film. Well suited to legacy codebase refactoring.

I'm a relative newbie to java but in 2023, to still have classpath issues on Windows is wild.

A great writeup from Dan here. Nails so much of why the McKinsey article was dangerously wrong

2FA codes on phones are a great idea in concept. In reality the smartphone is so multi-utility, it becomes a dangerous distraction. I want an app on my phone that I can (successfully) block all distractions except auth apps. I also want X without suggestions (distractions).

If you are successfully benefiting from the practices of continuous delivery (specifically, safely deploying to production with minimum manual effort) should the number of config settings be reduced by hardcoding settings that don't vary per environment?

I've been on holiday for the past week. For the 2nd year running, I'm deliberately reading fiction books. No business, no tech, and no kindle. Just used, charity shop books. I guess the old school stories & format allows me to escape & recharge for a while.
