Is this a joke? I don't know much about Kubernetes, but I've heard from devops people it's quite helpful for bigger scale infrastructures.

Don't these ovals suffer from the problems of g1 continuity, like for example ugly reflections if such an oval is made into a 3D reflective object? The reflections getting suddenly tighter where arcs connect. Or is it not noticeable if

by brulard 2y ago
Can you provide examples? I have not seen an API not to support circles and arcs. SVG is AFAIK the most common API, you have there circles, arcs, ellipsis, quadratic and cubic beziers etc.

I don't know. I had run into problems building some packages for node and builing another tools with Cargo (i think) with 4 GB RAM. And if you going to experiment with containers, etc. I would definitely recommend starting at least at

Anyone with experience to compare Coolify vs. Dokku? (and maybe something else?)

Depends on your needs. For some Raspberry Pi (ideally with 8-16GB RAM) + SSD can be enough if you are after low power consumption. If you need more power: I had success with HP ProDesk Mini (or any other one-litre PC), you can get these sec

TanStack Query (formerly known as React Query) is absolutely compatible with Svelte. https://tanstack.com/query/latest I work with react for a decade now, and with Svelte for past 3 years. Svelte is obviously a newer g

Not every page or app needs framework. But building complex app without one would be very hard and time consuming, and your team would need to come up with ways to solve problems like architecture, code structure, routing, data management,

I share your nostalgia. I did learn a lot by exploring Amiga OS and later Windows 98 without anyone to help or an internet connection. It was fun, but we had time to spend back then. Today time feels much more scarce and I no longer appreci

I have to say I had a very good results creating and optimizing quite complex queries with Sonnet. But letting LLM run them on their own in production is quite a different beast.

I didn't find the original comment negative. Saying it's not that hard to try to build an MCP server yourself is actually very helpful and constructive. That's how I read it. Nothing that would discourage me from submitting a

I think we exactly need to hear things like that. This is what I was wondering. Why is every MCP project such a big news? Isn't it just a few lines of code?

by brulard 2y ago
Yes, but your use case is language. I use LLMs for all kind of stuff from programming, creative work, etc. so I know it's useful even elsewhere. But as the generic term "AI" is being used, people expect it to be good at every

I have this same issue with gmail. I can not find e-mails by an exact word from text or subject. It is there, but search would not show it. I don't understand how a number one email provider can fail at that.

What do you mean? Lot of people pay, (me included) and are getting value. If you use it but don't pay, you still get value, otherwise you would be wasting your time. If you don't use it at all, that's your choice to make.

It was a mistake to call LLMs "AI". Now people expect it to be generic.

I never said it's free. (But also aiming for 100% correctness is very very expensive) I'm talking about trading correctness, readability, security and maybe others for another metrics. What I said is just not every project that ha

by brulard 2y ago
Oh, but it is. I can have code that does something nice to have, needs not to be 100% correct etc. For example, I want a background for my playful webpage. Maybe a WebGL shader. It might not be exactly what I asked for, but I can have it in

That is called "Volkswagen" testing. Some years ago that automaker had mechanism in cars which detected when the vehicle was being examined and changed something so it would pass the emission tests. There are repositories on githu

Parts of the UI of Inkscape are very clunky. Like the tabs where live path effects live, thats awful. Also the zoom/pan on the canvas. Corel was very well polished if I remember correctly.

There were 3 major open source graphics projects: - Gimp for 2D raster - Inkscape for 2D vector - Blender for 3D At some time 10-20 years ago they all were powerful, but being hold back by a bad UI. Blender turned it all around with thei

I feel sketch fell out of favor as well. 12 years ago it was everywhere. I have seen it replaced by figma and very rarely mentioned nowadays. And I say it as a frontend dev who worked with different designers over the years.

Photopea has implemented surprisingly large fraction of photoshops features, and having it implemented in a way familiar to photoshop users makes it very useful tool already. And that without installing, just as a web app? Or PWA if you wan

Not anymore. I was a Photoshop user from around 2000, I knew every corner of it from version 5.5 until CS-2 or something. You are quite right about Adobe making it worse and worse with every version. Today, although i still pay for subscrip

I like your diligency, thats pretty impressive track record. Although I need to point out a little readability issue: For me (likely ADHD) your blog is very hard to visually parse. It looks like single wall of unstructured text. It's h

I would love to do this as well, but I'm put off by the time it would take away from pushing the project itself forward. How much time does it generally take for you to make a blogpost for a project?

Well, you should be able to leave for a week without having to tell your neighbors all about it. It may be different for old weak people who are unlikely to just go to vacation all of a sudden.
