Interesting. But it’s not straightforward with Django. So I looked up and found this https://github.com/erhosen-libs/pydjantic Looks promising and will play with it and see how it helps.

We migrated from Celery to Prefect a couple of years back and have been very happy. But ours is a small op which handles tasks in 1000s and not millions. It’s been night and day in terms of visibility and tracking. I would definitely recomm

I use a project generator tool for a Django project. One of the things it does is generate setting file using string manipulation. I have been trying to think of a more sane way to do this. leverage something like dataclass or Pydantic mode

Ah! I see. Thank you.

Nice write up showcasing Exists. I would say, if ORM abstraction “distinct()” is a performance issue, then it’s probably time to switch to SQL. I find it simpler to either use the ORM or the SQL than to bend ORM into SQL.

I do the same thing with both. Nothing specific to Amp. But I have read it’s great for brainstorming and planning if I “ask oracle” - oracle being their tool that enables deep thinking. So I tend to use that when I think I have multiple sol

I use 2 cli - Codex and Amp. Almost every time I need a quick change, Amp finishes the task in the time it takes Codex to build context. I think it’s got a lot to do with the system prompt and a the “read loop” as well, amp would read multi

I use zed now, Pycharm before that, Emacs before that, VSCode before that - one common thing amongst them all, I always install the “vim mode” plugin as the first thing. I always have a working vim/neovim setup beside all of them. It’s

Depends on what you are doing. When it’s a large codebase, trying to debug or understand a implementation, hitting * to cycle through the occurrences in a file, “gd” to jump to the function definition, Ctrl+o to go to previous position are

Nailed it? Maybe close. They still have a keyboard button dedicated to Copoilot. That thing can’t be reconfigured easily.

Your initial comment made it seem like, the repairable options are just so incovenient to the point where buying a new machine was the solution. So my questions were mainly around why that would be the case. But, it seems like your requirem

Sorry! So many questions. That electronics store won't sell RAM and SSD sticks? Which cities have stores that can sell Macbooks but not RAM & SSD? Like why wait for Amazon next day delivery if your SSD or RAM dies? Why would you wa

Right! I didn’t know the difference. Does it mean for 79 out of 100 documents they produce 100% accurate OCR, I doubt it. The win rate sounds like a practical approximation of accuracy here to me. If I am wildly off, I am happy to learn.
