I have an Ecotank and my parents have one too (data set size of 2 :). I've had it for 4-5 years now and it's superb for my simple use case (occasional low cost printing at home). I did initially run into clogged heads too, until I

Dw, there's quite a lot of push back against AI in some of the communities I hang around in. It's just rarely seldom visible here on HN. It's usually not about the price, but more about the fact that a few megacorps and count

I consider myself to be an (occasional) user of AI services like the ones OpenAI and others provide. I've learned how to consume the services reasonably effectively, and make good use of them, but that's about it. I am not an AI e

We've used Nexus OSS just the way you describe and it worked great. We simply set it up as a kind of "passthrough cache", so if it didn't have the package it fetched it from pypi, and stored it to be used the next time s

I'm one of the co-founders of Hotjar, so a fair bit of the original code was mine. Most of it has obviously been replaced by others after all these years. I'm equally, if not more, proud of an extremely bad Dig Dug clone I made in

100% agree with you that there's a lot of improvements to be done for a lot of the software we developers use on a daily basis. It's the term DX / Developer Experience in itself I dislike strongly. My sibling poster @swyx did

While Astro has a lot of impressive features I found that it was the "developer experience" (god I hate that term) that was superior compared to everything I've tried before. With Hugo and Jekyll I always needed to go revisit

I don't think you're too cynical at all - I think you're exactly right! It's often much more sensible to use the "tried and true" stuff most of the time. In my particular case I don't plan to have my compa

It's a very interesting point. I've been part of managing rather large Terraform infrastructures (1000+ resources) for a couple of years, but I'm a Pulumi n00b with only about a month of experience. The infrastructure I'

+1 from me on the "awful half-baked language" (HCL). I just recently wrote an article about my experience, including issues and workarounds, when migrating from Terraform to Pulumi: https://blog.ekik.org/my-experie

I'm delighted for all potential US customers to get such a nice deal thrown their way - nice one Braintree! Too bad the offer doesn't extend to Europe, but I can appreciate the complexity in setting up something like this world wi
