Sounds like the “components” described above are much larger than classes.

I guess it might not be, but here’s one we received. Claims to be earrings, contained seeds. https://imgur.com/a/sRMLbDj

Here’s one we received earlier this year for your analysis. Personal details were ours including the phone number. The package contained a bag of seeds. Not the rose stud earrings claimed (that we also didn’t order). https://imgu

My wife did. It’s a thing. I had no idea where they came from but I assumed it was either a scam or a practical joke by a friend. When I wasn’t the latter I decided it had to be a scam.

Hasura is a gql server too. I can’t say how it’s different from prisma, but it works by running as a frontend process to your Postgres dB. You issue gql, it converts to sql and then back to gql on the way out. Some of the things it does dif

Not sure if it’s general but here in the UK our lawyer made us come in to collect the bank account number and were very explicit about never using other details because of this scam. I saw a variation of it first hand at a company I once wo

Also weird for me to see the name here (I’m in the next village over), not one you see popping up often. I occasionally wonder how many other HNers there are scattered about in my local area (I suspect not many).

Can confirm. I’m just about done on my combined chicken run and coop myself. I’ve learnt a tonne. First time I’ve built anything structural from scratch. Last year we purchased a property that needed a lot of work to make it liveable. It to

That’s definitely a killer. Staying at an Airbnb right now where all I can see is poor workmanship. There are a million jobs I still need to get to, but at least I know that once they’re done I’ll be happy with the result. Having only just

Agreed. Even configuring Lucerne used to be enough to give you a pretty deep understanding of how it works under the hood. Arguably that’s a bad thing, but I found it very enlightening.

When you have the tooling in place, it’s relatively easy to remodel your data in Postgres. I use alembic (python), so most of the schema changes are handled for me - and then I need to write any updates to fill in the gaps. It doesn’t matte

I’m only just starting to get into gardening and we have a lot of garden waste to try to deal with (including a lot left by the previous owners). In the last few places I’ve lived, the previous occupants have always left a big pile of garde

Postgres does dblink too (which is Postgres to Postgres I believe). FDW is more general in that it allows using, say, mongo collections as tables.

I spotted this over the weekend, nice work zzzeek! The technical details still evade me somewhat but it seems we can now run a big blob of synchronous code with async around the edges. How deep are the changes required to sqlalchemy? Do you

You can add a script at ~/.ssh/rc that’s run on each login. You’d need to be careful to make sure it couldn’t be changed if you were relying on it for notifications.

Massive hat tip for all your work over the years. Redis is a lovely bit of work. I first used it as the datastore for a flash sale about 8 years ago now. Even though close to 130k people were trying to book rooms at the same time, it perfor

No expert, but even example.com isn't totally safe, right? According to the RFC ( https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6761 ), while these domains are reserved, nothing should treat them specially, so there's nothing

Nice! Fascinating how many letters you need to represent all the vowels.

I ran into that this week too! Actually, it was a filter that contained a Json path select and it appears that it’s evaluating the path for every row check (maybe because the path lookups can be more dynamic?).

I couldn’t live without ipython autoreload. You need to know where the limitations are that require you to create your instances again. Things like sqlalchemy model changes run into issues because of the meta class magic (I think, not looke

I’d wager it would cost a whole lot less to train devs up on the existing system than to rewrite. Without understanding the existing code, you’re going to have a tough time replacing it.

Last time they did this they managed to pull it off really well. From memory there was the ability to package apps for both architectures so they would run on either machine. And to bridge the gap there was Rosetta which allowed PowerPC bin

I’ve been learning it recently on my laptop. Use the Emulate Numpad option in the settings. The other thing I’ve done is remapped ; to numpad-/ (I think, whatever it is that allows me to focus on an object). I suspect that ultimately

I never understand where patents start and end with the bit they claim to be new. Where is that in the patent document? In this case they’re talking about executing sql and rendering as html. Ok. Fine. Phpmyadmin was already doing that in 1

Your parent said decriminalise rather than legalise. It’s a strategy that Portugal has had a lot of success with.

I'd also like to point people to Ian Hubert's youtube videos on some of the things he does in Blender. This short clip (he races through his stuff) shows how he turns a video in a farm house into a dystopian scene using Blender&#x

It’s pretty easy to follow. I’ve been learning Blender over the last month but not delved too deeply into the Python api yet. That source code is really straightforward though. There are 2 parts, the bootstrapping where you tell Blender how
