This week Jerod goes solo with Philipp Heckel, creator of <a href="https://ntfy.sh">ntfy</a>, to discuss this simple HTTP-based service that lets you send notifications to your phone or desktop via scripts from any computer. They discuss why he built it, how he built it, and what his plans are for the future of this beloved side hustle.
