Hi all - this is a culmination of a lot of work I've been doing over the past few years of trying to make different code generators, DSLs, and this is something I'm pretty proud of (but yes, I did lean heavily on Claude Code to se

I think they meant the 'Plan with Opus' model. shift+tab still works for me, the VS code extension allows you to plan still too, but the UI is _so_slow with updates.

I wonder if it's a difference between SSE and HTTP streaming support? I've been working on a tool for devs to create their own MCP tools and built out support for both protocols because it was easier for me to support both protoco

Batching is a pattern I’ve had to manually build in the past to push large amounts of analytic data to a database. I’d push individual events to be logged, map reduce those in batches and then perform insert on duplicate update queries on t

I've seen this argument come up frequently and I find this is just a weird hill to die on. I can see where the author is coming from as far as taking you out of the experience, but QR codes and NFC absolutely have a place in the resta

Plus, if you’re writing the front end in react or something else, that’s essentially the “other endpoint”. You’re just moving that back closer to the source of the origin.

This is definitely possible, and this is definitely already happening. It may be hard for some people to even tell the difference between an AI generated script/audio vs 100% human curated.

AWS beanstalk allows you to run on very cheap instances, even cheaper if you get a plan and commit to a term. It’s not a 1:1 experience, but I’ve enjoyed it as an alternative to Heroku for sure. Alternatively, you could spin up a server and

I've been using echo for years. Has a great balance of adding helpful utilities while also not imposing bad patterns.

Have you considered doing payment processing, then the output goes to the users preferred payment method? So say my customer pays with a CC (via stripe or braintree on your end) - you could pass that payment along to PayPal, stripe, crypto,

This is really cool! I tried building something more basic than this a few years back, but this looks a lot more mature. I'll definitely be following and testing it out on a few small projects.

If I were you, I would stick with applying for senior or management positions if that's what you're looking to do ultimately. Are you interviewing or are you working on your resume? If you have any long-term clients in your portf

Congrats on the build! I had a similar idea and worked on a similar project a few months back: https://infreq.social/ it obviously doesn't have the same polish that your project has, but the mission as far as what the

Hi all, Infreq Social is a social network I've been working on for the past few weeks. Over the past few years, everyone has seen an obsession with social networks, and more often than not people are checking their social network mult

Hi everyone! This project scratches an itch I've had for awhile now (ok, maybe 5+ years). I used to love using goo.gl in the past. It was an easy way to collect analytics for links that I would share around, and was accurate in it&#x

I don't think your default is necessarily the easiest way to get an app up and running, and certainly because of vendor lock-in and training required for the Google platform/services, you risk limiting the pool of available talent

From what I understand of alpine, it's commonly used for Docker images to provide a lightweight distro for your apps vs using something like ubuntu or debian which may include more than what's required. I don't believe it&#x2

I'd argue against that. Recently, I tried making a few test apps with Phoenix and Rails to get my feet wet with something different (I write Go, Java and PHP in my day job), and with Phoenix I ran into a few issues getting the environ

I don't see the 13" MBP sticking around much longer. At this point, the differences between the Air and 13" MBP are minimal, so I see them eventually adding a few more cores to the air, possibly giving that some of the aesth

Yea, looks like they're reselling webflow built websites, nothing really to see here. My first web development job was working for an agency that charged $500 setup fee + $49/mo there after. Nothing revolutionary about this.
