OP here - I had never thought of the analogy to DevOps before, that made something click for me, and I wrote a post just now riffing off this notion: https://kenkantzer.com/gpt-is-the-heroku-of-ai Basically, I think we’re u

Hey, OP here! The answer is a bit boring: the expenditure definitely has helped customers - in that, they're using AI generated responses in all their work flows all the time in the app, and barely notice it. See what I did there? :) I

This is a great question! I think we now know, collectively, a lot more about what’s annoying/hard about building LLM features than we did when LangChain was being furiously developed. And some things we thought would be important and

Things PWAs can't do: 1. On mobile, access full-definition camera/video as part of MediaDeviceCapture. There are new javascript APIs for this, but they're only partialy supported (the name of the new escapes me)

Everything is a tradeoff - but the basic balance is very strongly in favor of password managers: 1. without a password manager that is shared on all your devices, you WILL re-use passwords out of frustration. 2. without a password manager,

Glad to see DaisyUI on here - it’s a component library designed with tailwindcss - it hits that fine balance for component libraries between covering the hard-to-do stuff (modals, accordions, drop-down) without building such big components

You’re not alone…I think the docs for hotwire need two entry points: 1. (This is the current entry point): I have a rails app already, and I’m looking to progressively enhance it with a splash of turbo, responsiveness, magic. 2. (This is wh

I tend to agree - search, and particularly search-for-humans, is really a team sport - meaning, very rarely do you have a single search algo operating in isolation. You have multiple passes, you filter results through business logic. Having

This. You don’t need to create the first thing in a category or choose something complex to be successful. You may be able to hack together a basic feature flagging product in 2-3 days, but like many domains, it goes incredibly deep and the

You have the wrong paradigm. Airtable doesn’t improve on excel - it makes databases accessible to non-technical people. It’s the new MS Access: simple GUI for doing Joins, lookups, foreign keys without knowing that’s what you’re doing.

My favorite tidbit has to do with the third defenestration of Prague (1948): It was widely viewed as a likely assassination by the communists of foreign affairs minister Jan Masaryk. A clever poem emerged from it, with typically dark easter

I just went through looking for, and failing to find, a good typeahead library. I could not find one I liked. Typeahead is probably the most sophisticated UI element, and the most demanding in terms of what users expect. Two pro tips: 1. Ap

Every day it seems like the vendor-lockin-plus-$$$ vs developer-experience tradeoff that comes with Auth0 gets less and less worth it, unless you're a massive B2C app like OpenAI (which uses Auth0). - the economics for the middle (aka

I used to be with the SSO-wall-of-shame crowd...until I had to maintain and support SSO within a production app. G-suite/Social SSO? Fine. Not a problem. SAML? Good luck automating that and not having to reset certs / tweak things
