This post details a small but important change in how we generate content for sharing on LinkedIn, focusing on aligning the tone with the platform's user experience.
The primary goal was to shift the voice of automatically generated LinkedIn share posts to a first-person perspective. Since the posts are published from the user's profile, using "I" instead of third-person references
We recently added a "Share on LinkedIn" feature to our landing page project, devlog-ist/landing. The goal was to increase user engagement and expand the reach of user portfolios by enabling seamless sharing on LinkedIn. This post details the implementation process, covering AI-powered post generation, direct publishing via the LinkedIn API, and considerations for different user
This update introduces an enhanced referral program with tiered commissions, seamless Dev.to integration, and updated terms and conditions to reflect these changes.
The referral program has been expanded with the addition of a dedicated landing page, complete with details about the program, commission rates, and automated tools.
This article discusses a common issue in applications using GitHub OAuth for authentication: inadvertently overwriting a user's existing token with one that has fewer permissions. We'll explore how to ensure the application preserves the user's original, broader-scoped token when requesting narrower scopes during subsequent logins.
Many applications use GitHub
When dealing with multi-tenant applications, handling tenant removal gracefully is crucial for user experience and data integrity. This post discusses a strategy for tenant dissolution with a focus on minimizing disruption and providing users with options.
In a multi-tenant system, deleting a tenant can have significant implications for its users.
Managing resource quotas across multiple tenants can be challenging, especially when the need for manual overrides arises. This post explores how we refactored our token usage service to implement a tenant-centric quota system with support for manual adjustments.
Previously, our token quota management was user-based. This created inefficiencies when the context already provided
Maintaining data consistency across distributed systems and applications often requires careful management of caches. Stale data in caches can lead to unexpected behavior and inconsistencies. We recently implemented several enhancements to our application's caching strategy, focusing on proactive invalidation to ensure data accuracy and prevent outdated information from impacting
During a recent update, we encountered an issue where partial failures during data synchronization could lead to data loss. This post details the problem and the solution implemented to ensure data integrity.
Our application relies on synchronizing data from an external source. The synchronization process involves fetching and updating various data points.
We've recently refactored and optimized our AI token usage tracking to improve performance and maintainability. This involved extracting duplicated queries and enhancing user filtering.
The primary focus was on improving the efficiency of retrieving daily and monthly tenant AI usage data. This was achieved through two key changes:
This post explores several strategies for optimizing data access within an application, focusing on caching and query reduction techniques. Efficient data handling is crucial for maintaining performance, especially as application scale.
Caching is a fundamental technique for reducing database load and improving response times.
