After I tried out some of the featured apps on the home page, I was able to build my own in minutes and publish it publicly - GeoFlix, check it out!
All I did was to provide the prompt that "the app should identify and suggest movies that prominently feature specified locations or place names within their storylines."
I edited the pre-created app name to GeoFlix and clicked on the "Make public and Share" button.
AWS is offering new PartyRock users a free trial without the need to provide a credit card or sign up for an AWS account for a limited time. The percentage balance reflecting the amount of free trial usage remaining for your account is displayed in real time within PartyRock on your Backstage profile page as PartyRock credit. PartyRock credit is calculated by your input tokens, output tokens, and generated images. PartyRock Credit usage varies by model to help users build intuition on cost consideration when using generative AI.
The relative consumption of each model is expressed in a scale of (1-3 token stacks) on the model selection dropdown. A (3 token stack) will consume the most credit, a (2 token stack) will consume moderate credit, and a (1 token stack) will consume the least credit.
While the free trial usage limit seems liberal, you have to be watchful of your consumption quota, which model you use and how may tokens are used while interacting with your apps or those created by others.
With some prompting, the Claude model also generated this description for the app -
Discover the magic of movie locations with GeoFlix. Our innovative app allows you to explore the world through the lens of cinema by identifying films that prominently feature real-world places.

Smartphone barcode scanners typically require installing a dedicated app. But what if your web app could access the camera and scan codes directly — no app required, just HTML and JavaScript? I tried Minhaz's nifty HTML5 QR Code & Barcode scanner and I'm bowled over by its simplicity. With hundreds of GitHub stars and forks , it's clear I'm not the only one impressed! I adapted Minhaz's sample code into a minimalist web page that scans a product barcode and redirects to Open Food Facts to display its nutrition information. Here's the code : You can also try it out live. Related: * Scanapp * HOW TO scan a barcode with an Android smartphone camera from a web page
File systems are the organizational systems that decide how data is stored, named, located, and protected on a disk, SSD, USB drive, or partition. They handle directories, file metadata (permissions, timestamps, ownership), free space tracking, and more. Windows side Windows primarily uses: NTFS — the modern default. It supports journaling (for crash recovery), large files and volumes, fine-grained permissions, encryption, and compression. FAT32 and exFAT — simpler, widely used on removable media (USB sticks, SD cards) because they are highly cross-compatible with other operating systems. Windows has no native support for the main Linux file systems. When you connect a drive formatted with ext2/3/4, Windows typically sees it as “RAW” or unknown and may offer to format it (which would destroy the data). Linux side Most Linux distributions default to the ext family: ext2 — the older, non-journaling version. ext3 — added journaling for better reliability. ext4 — the current standard. It a...
