Oh man, Python 2 > 3 was such a massive shift. Took almost half a decade if not more and yet it mainly changing superficial syntax stuff. They should have allowed ABIs to break and get these internal things done. Probably came up with a

I had a Nokia N9 or was it N7 that ran the predecessor OS to Sailfish. It was so good back then. The UX left android and iOS in dust. Both ended up adopting a lot of patterns from it later. Loved that phone.

You have a service that talks to postgres, probably other services that talk to that service, a client that talks to these services through some gateway. When a user clicks a button, distributed tracing allows you to see the whole request r

I'm sure you are aware but sharing anyway. Django 6.0 shipped an API called Django Tasks for background jobs so all Django code can implement portable, backend agnostic background jobs and swap backends on the fly but there are zero ac

Thanks. My two cents would be to not lock technical features behind a paywall. Lock "enterprise" features like encryption, FIPS, compliance reports, etc which make sense for a big corp. This would be far more palatable for someone

Thanks for sharing Chancy. Looks really interesting. Outside of the API breaking, would you say this is safe enough to for production today?

Django 6's tasks framework is nice but so far it is only an API. It does not include an actual worker implementaiton. There is a django-tasks package which does a basic implementation but it is not prod ready. I tried it and it is very

Interesting. Any docs that explain what/how they do this?

I'm just coming back to web/API development Python after 7-8 years working on distributed systems in Go. I just built a Django+Celery MVP given what I knew from 2017 but I see a lot of "hate" towards Celery online these

I don't know how I feel about free open source version and then a commercial version that locks features. Something inside me prevents me from even trying such software. Logically I'd say I support the model because open source ne

I mostly agree with you but I AM super productive with AI. I'm working on a side-project and have built in 2-3 months what my quite productive team of 3-4 people would take 4-6 months to build in 2016. And I'm not talking to gener

Cool. I used to install it on all my family and friends computer when I was a teenager but as I grew older and had less and less time, being the constant tech support guy for everyone I introduced to Linux got very hard so I stopped recomme

What is the ideal or realistic setup for a home lab to power big enough models running locally and service ~2-3 users at a time?

Very interesting but why would a browser report different coordinates depending on the monitor? I'd assume browser would treat the webpage as if it was the entire screen irrespective of which display it was on. Is there a reason for we

Why would that matter? The tabs don't share memory. Any code doesn't run when it tries to acquire a lot that another piece of code from another tab has already acquired. The two tabs don't even need to run the same app.

Sounds like Flutter core teams hold contributors to a high standard and the Javascript bros can't deal with real Software Engineering so they're having a party of their own. In all honesty, good luck. It might be useful if it neve

Maybe other philanthropy they do is not part of the tech scene where they are most recognized. Maybe in those circles they are seen as just another rich couple.

I guess they mean "fork" in the broader Open Source sense when you fork something to create your own version of it and take it on a different path or do things differently like like NeoVim forked Vim. GitHub uses the term "fo

I personally have a hard time trusting closed source software random sources I've never heard of before. Maybe I'm just too paranoid but I try not to run random software especially something that has as widespread access to my dat

Yeah it does look really nice.

Can anyone confirm if this is Open Source or not? Looks like it used github as an issue tracker but I'm not seeing the source code anywhere.

Did they actually post a screenshot of the email they are sending out as an update? How hard is it to copy the text for the blog post? Why so lazy?

Not sure if that is the case. Imagine all ride hailing and cab services in a few years are based on Waymo tech including Waymo's own fleet. Waymo would be the clear winner.

I want macOS to be as locked down as iOS when my dad, wife and son use it but I want it to be as open as Linux when I use it. Perhaps it should be closed by default but have a developer mode that behaves how macOS behaves today.

This page is somewhat misleading. It pretends Little Snitch Mini supports blocking but that is not true and only works in the paid version. It does clarify this at the very bottom but weird to have your free app's landing page list fea
