This reminds me of my previous job, where we built a "modular synthesiser" [1] with compile-time patch generation. Each module's connections and parameters was described in an external file, parsed and interpreted at compile

Insomnia [1] is a good one, it has all the necessary features to navigate REST APIs without the cloud clutter that comes with Postman. [1] https://insomnia.rest

Ca peut être toxique par moment en effet. Dans les préférences de HN, il y a un mode `noprocrast` qui te bloque l'accès au bout d'un certain temps passé dessus, c'est bien pratique. Dans le même style, une extension [1] pour

That's the objective of Blitz.js [1]: build on top of Next.js for a rails-like experience, but made by an independent open-source community. [1] https://blitzjs.com/ - https://github.com/blitz-js/b

Congrats on the funding, but I'd like to know what prompted the name change. ZEIT sounded mysterious and edgy, while Vercel sounds like a company selling expensive handbags (to me).

This, plus the infinite reply indentation lead to some very interesting conversations with my friends, which turned out to be an unreadable mess only days later. It was great for real-time brainstorming though.

Agreed. Even subresource integrity [1] does not help here, because if the HTML is compromised, then everything else can be too. [1] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subres...

If the JavaScript bundle that is being served is built on a public CI/CD service, it could be possible to do the following, for transparency and verification: - Include in a header comment: the build URL, Git SHA-1 of the commit, and o

Adding to the pile of similar approaches, there's TypeBox [1] which uses JSON Schema as an intermediate artifact (validation can happen with ajv or other libs), and extracts static types for TypeScript. Having the JSON Schema intermedi

Interesting project, I like the Wisdom TL;DR Guide [1] (collection of quotes and maxims) that comes with it. [1] https://github.com/slowernews/wisdom-tldr-guide

Another point in favour of this model: as the business is in control of the credit, they can implement custom flows of this virtual money bag without hitting any charges. Famous example being the $20 offered when signing up on some hosting

It depends on the type of service, setting up new accounts to dodge charges can be very annoying if there's any kind of data to move around, and it would be easy to spot for the service provider.

Agreed, alerting and hard-capping (limiting consumption) should be seen as different kinds of thresholds, possibly defined independently by different parties. I'm looking into implementing this system in one of my projects, do you have

> Your service can support a high amount of throughput (otherwise you won’t be able to earn as much revenue if you can’t service the amount of usage customers demand) It's interesting to see this point under that angle, although it

As others mentioned, PlatformIO is a good start. For those who are interested in building a library, here's my TravisCI workflow for unit testing & running examples on various platforms: https://github.com/FortySeve

One thing I've learned from maintaining an Arduino library [1] for the last 10+ years: make the API as simple as possible. Lots of people discover programming with Arduino, making the experience enjoyable for them requires abstracting

Because they are open-source, those modules have been ported to VCV Rack [1], a virtual instrument aimed at recreating the Eurorack experience in digital audio workstations. Obviously, using a mouse/trackpad is not the same as tweaking

One advantage that MIDI 1.0 had (and still holds) over USB is it's simplicity to implement on low power controllers and devices. I got into programming 12 years ago thanks to MIDI, I wanted to control some of my guitar pedals with an A

This is cool. One improvement could be to add a redirection URL as a parameter in the request so that users land back on the app.

Adverts are not free speech. Public service announcements on billboards might be, like the band trying to promote their underground concert in town, or an association promoting a cultural event. But you can't put those in the same bask

I was in a very similar situation about a year ago. What changed is that I took freelance contracts, on stacks that I had tried to use in side projects but failed to ship because of analysis paralysis. The simple fact that the project is no
