Really cool. I know the sauce is in the layers and weights, but its kind of mind blowing how short / simple the implementations are

That blew my mind as well. I remember it looking so good. Xbox - 64mb Xbox 360 - 512mb Xbox One - 8 GB (later 12 GB) Xbox Series X - 16 GB This last one also surprises me, was expecting at least 32GB

On the other hand, some people want Bitcoin to succeed so much - or rather want the price of Bitcoin to succeed because they speculate on it - that they'll engineer some fraudulent schemes in a relatively unregulated market to support

I had seen this a while ago but should take a fresh look at it - it seems like there should be a community tool that generates data providers from an openapi spec. Thanks!

I believe so - basically following the vanilla SQLAlchemy integration guide they have [0], and not trying to await query results as they do in the the async guide [1] [0] https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/tutorial/sql-databa

I'm curious - is there a tool handles solely the "frontend codebase generation" part of this? This looks great, but we already have a well-defined backend and REST API built using Python+FastAPI, with SQLAlchemy as an ORM and

If you had a chuckle at Immortal's Battles in the North album cover, please watch the video for The Call of the Wintermoon [0], which was on their first album, Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism. I'm convinced they knew it was hilariou

Seems like Forza would be easier to interface with too, example: this guy built a virtual cockpit[0] using VW parts -- the shifter, tach/speedometer all work [0] - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSEqO_2kdxLtslBK9

The most impressive thing about Stripe's website is IMO their documentation. I've tried to replicate it using tools like widdershins and slate, but can't get it as beautiful or functional.

> 10/ When we say "inflation-adjusted wages look good," we are actually saying "if you could take your wage back to 1970 and spend it, you'd be better off than you were at the time with a 1970 wage." I mean,

Why have no edtechs created a low cost version of the TI-83/84? One that mirrors the functionality of the TI calcs so that they can still be used with textbooks that are dependent on those. The article estimates the TI's cost $15-

Is Stripe's "documentation stack" open-source? I've seen Slate and its derivatives, but honestly nothing really comes close to the full (amazing) dev experience their docs provide.

S2 can also output interior coverings, which will return only the cells in a covering that are fully contained in a polygon. So if you encounter a point (or any cell) whose parent is in an interior covering, you don't have to do any ad

Library also available in Java[0] and to an extent in Golang[1], though the latter is incomplete. S2 is fantastic for geofencing. Arbitrary regions can be covered by a set of S2 cells of varying level. A point (lat/lon) can be converte
