Here's how to set screenshots to save in your Downloads folder:

defaults write com.apple.screencapture location ~/Downloads && killall SystemUIServer


Or press command+shift+5 click the "Options" button, and then the "Other Location..." option in the "Save to" menu, like it shows in the article.


TinkerTool lets you edit the Destination Folder, Format and some additional screenshot settings. I much prefer this because it allows me to quickly check the current setting as opposed to a "black box" CLI command.


Maybe?

    defaults read com.apple.screencapture location


Nice job touching on backward compatibility. It’s underrated.


Thank you. This fits a current need of mine perfectly.

Do you have any other helpful tips you’d like to share? Any thoughts between Redis and Memcache?


Not the GP, but if the GP described a scenario that is useful to you, redis can #1 act as the memory cache if the processes themselves don't last long enough for the optimization to be useful, and #2 can act as a cheap message queue to funnel similar requests into a single (or small number of) processes for aggregation before writing to disk.

It sounds like you're just describing a build server and it's filesystem.


dating app Founder here.

adding to sprite’s comment, they still allow new dating apps that match their guidelines.


I'm also solo, bootstrapped, and building a dating app. Would you like to connect? My email address is in my profile.


+1 on the SIM theory.

Carrier, iso country code, mobile country code, mobile network code, and more are all easily accessible data attributes.


Have you tried fishing a different pond?


Glad to hear recovery being made… this typhoon was a bad one.


Humans make mistakes, and Patrick apologized on the behalf of this experience.

While there may be opinions on whether or not this “makes it right”, apologies in today’s world should still carry some worth.


The most important part of an apology is, imo, sincerity. I think Patrick is chiming into this thread to perform damage control, not to sincerely apologize.

This, to me, is evident in the fact that OP interviewed for a specific, high level position, and named specific, repeated bad processes that go beyond Patrick's generic "We interview a lot of people so some people are going to have a bad time."

Patrick has more than enough information to start fixing things on a systemic level. Instead, he optimizes for the appearance of contrition without committing to fixing any of the specific problems mentioned.


Another +1 for Postmark. Reliable and insightful.

What really sold me personally as a bootstrapper was how they offer initial credit for their services to help get going.
