SaturdayMP Show #94: Debugging Git HTTP 400 curl 22 Error

In our first ever completely live episode, Omar and myself debug a GitHub push error Omar was experiencing. It was a new error for both of us and took a bit to figure out. The error was:

error: RPC failed; HTTP 400 curl 22 The requested URL returned error: 400

The tl;dw (to-long;didn’t-watch) is the image was larger than the Git post buffer size. The fix was to compress the image, which is something we are doing for the Weekly Dev Chat website. Another fix is to increase the Git post buffer size.

SaturdayMP Show 93: PostCast (Part 12 - Start on Slack API)

In this episode Omar and myself start working on the Slack integration for PostCast. We start off by reviewing what we have learned about the Slack API so far. Then we come up with a plan of attack and start implementing the plan but don’t get very far.

SaturdayMP Show 91: PostCast (Part 11 - Saving LinkedIn Token)

In this PostCast episode Omar and myself figure out how to save the LinkedIn API token. Previously we saved the LinkedIn API ClientID and ClientSecret, which we knew was incorrect, but we just wanted to get something working. Now we correctly save the token, which is what should be saved.

*PostCast is just a place holder name and might change. The goofy PostCast placeholder image was generated by ChatGPT and will likely change.
