I am definitely target audience for this. I am often in need of building internal tools, dashboards - simple apps with simple UI that doesn't need to be unique, drive engagement, or whatever. It needs to get the job done and let me mov

I didn't neccessarily mean Rust, but was curios to see how that would look. Here's a Rust demo implementation of the seL4 root task (the first process that gets started on boot) using their Rust SDK and it doesn't look like i

Tangentially, I'd have loved to see a modern, (se)L4 based desktop (general purpose) operating system, capabilities-based, with services written in a safe language, with no legacy (POSIX) baggage. Failing that, I hope to be able to hac

Completely agree. Scaling (and relatedly, high availability) are premature optimizations[0] implemented (and authorized) by people hoping for that sweet hockey stick growth, cargo culting practices needed by companies several orders of magn

You can do joins in Django just fine, and you can even NOT write them and have Django automagically do the correct thing if you know how to use it.

Heh, wrote something similar (django-queryinspect) a while ago, then abandoned it since iirc django debug toolbar has it builtin, and I moved to some other stuff.. maybe I should dust it off. N+1 is fairly well understood and documented got

I usually deal with “isolated patch series followed by a bunch of fixups” by letting them pile on top, then rebasing just before merging (the setting is usually feature branches all branched from main so that’s fine). It is extra work and n

I guess we have very different sets of users in mind, then. Ctrl-C (and Ctrl-Z, Ctrl-A, Ctrl-V and many other standard command-line shortcuts) have been around for longer than many of those users have been alive, and are part of POSIX stand

Hey HN! Dante is a side project that scratches a longstanding itch of mine: a simple way of storing arbitrary data into a store with minimal/zero setup. I do exploratory programming a lot and tinker with a bunch of throwaway projects,

Ctrl-C sending a SIGINT to the program running in the terminal is the standard shortcut. Woe to the terminal arrogant enough to assume their precious copy/paste is more important. Now, Super-C vs Ctrl-Shift-C (across the UI), we can

Using this in a naive way can easily degenerate into the LLM outputting syntactically/gramatically valid tokens that make no sense, like in this example: https://community.openai.com/t/json-format-causes-infinite-n

Not just jobs. I recently hired on Upwork and used prompt injection to make the AI autoreply scripts identify themselves by writing "I am a bot" as the first sentence of the job application. I expected maybe one or two. Almost h
