   Hi HN! Many libraries have been written in Python to build LLM applications, but none of them suited my needs. I wanted something straightforward that would get out of my way, like "requests" did for HTTP. I've been using Pro

   Environment variables are fine just don’t bake them into your image. K8s and docker support secrets that are just environment variables from the applications’ business logic. You can trivially read them from a secret and populate the enviro

   He sued the nonprofit out of existence because they encouraged (not forced) companies not to advertise on his platform as he told them all to go fuck themselves. If that sounds like a free speech win, you might be the kind of genius who sho

   I find these kinds of gotchas trivial and tiresome. Do we “understand” gravity? Magnetism? Other people? No. We have models. Some are predictive and/or useful. We aren’t Turing machines. We don’t observe nature directly — that’s why op

   Django can be run on ASGI. It works especially well with Granian. Django-Ninja if you want REST API's. I like it better than FastAPI, personally, and I think it's more appropriate if you're already on Django

    Support for docker compose would be fantastic. I could envision this on a digital ocean droplet with docker compose and traefik would become my go-to method for hosting. It's already an amazing tool, though!

    Could I use this to synchronize a docker-compose project? I’m imagining a seamless workflow for local development and prod. for certain projects it would be perfect like a blog. I’d love to not have to think about deployment at all. Like ho

    I feel like this has always been the case. The entire information economy is based on a few key publishers and figures. You see it in news, academia, social media -- there's orthodoxy everywhere. Not sure how AI is any different.

    I'm glad someone is doing this. It's a very difficult problem to solve, but I see it as similar to JSX in that the business logic and the underlying infra are often tightly coupled. There are certain kinds of data integration prob

    Using k8s over ECS and raw-dogging Terraform instead of using the CDK? It's no wonder you end up needing to hire entire teams of people just to manage infra

    I had the same thought when it popped up on my radar a year ago. Now that I’ve been using it for a few weeks, it’s difficult to go back to the exact tools you’re naming. I didn’t realize how large of an impediment it is to move back and for
