Hm, I want something like this, except it doesn't write for you at all, instead it helps you build out your storyline, gives you writing prompts and feedback, maybe sometimes suggests ideas if you feel stuck, helps keep your character&

Yes this would be great addition! Also it would be awesome to see proper load balancer, ingress controller with `gateway api` and a `api gateway` (two separate things). I’m not an oxide customer, just a fan. I have lots of ideas around how

Non-typical Kansas voter here. I reviewed candidates and any mention of “cut taxes” is a hard no from me. I have kids, and I want to make sure their schools are fully funded. The only tax cuts I would support would be on essentials like foo

How is it not lights-out? You could remotely power on/off the servers (XServe only). Other Macs could not do this, as they did not have the separate LOM network interfaces, etc. I managed a bunch of XServes for a while, they were incre

I managed a large enterprise CF account from 2018-2023. Hundreds of load balancers. The UI changed out from under us 3 times, with some big problems being fixed, but introducing new ones. I gave bold feedback directly to the leaders respons

Hm, maybe we should go make one. I am not a power user for Dendron, I mostly just use it for journaling, keeping track of who is who and what is what, and organizing architecture / ideas before they find a home somewhere else. Mostly a

Sure, but I would say you are an outlier in paying for those things. Most people use what's immediately available, others might search for something better that's free, and very few will go pay for something. That last category of

How many text editors have you paid for, versus how many have you used for free? I do think there is room for a few good paid text editors in the world, but most people won't pay directly for them, though they might use them if they ar

Not all software needs to be for-profit. Simple utility stuff I believe should fit in this category. Things like a text editor. The profit comes from elsewhere, larger more complex systems. Of course someone can TRY to profit off a text edi

Happy adopter of AEP here. It has been super helpful and the ecosystem is growing around it. The real benefit is having a standardized pattern for APIs, with automation and predictability built in. Not everything can be modeled as a resourc

Hah, I think about this all the time. I think we subtly desire LLMs to be more and more deterministic and efficient. This is why one of the main uses of LLMs is building tools to make their job easier. I made my own project, with one of the

I made up an attempt at a solution, https://ktext.dev . Basically a structured context file, that can be used to generate AGENTS.md, and also can be validated and scored. I think it could help with this problem.

If only it could fix the lag with Mac screen sharing in Teams.

This looks great, and possibly useful, but I'm curious, what was the main problem you were trying to solve, or what does this enable for you?

Love TypeSpec, agree it makes writing OpenAPI really easy. But I’ve moved to using https://aep.dev style APIs as much as possible (sometimes written with TypeSpec), because the consistency allows you to use prebaked aepcli or ve

by thegagne 5mo ago
It mostly does, if you write it well, but it’s less efficient than XML, you have to write it by hand, and there’s no way to “validate” that it’s any good. This is basically a structured, efficient version of claude.md.

https://ktext.dev/ Every time you launch a new Claude Code session it will need context for the codebase. Rather than letting it spend a bunch of tokens looking around and discovering it, why not provide it with a compact,

I started building one of these myself, and got something working decently but decided it was too complicated and didm’t really provide value. I then saw GitLab Knowledge Graph. It does this, but even Claude says it’s not very efficient or

Out of curiosity, why did you reject Floci? It lacked some feature I needed, so I just went ahead and added them. My needs were not that complex and it has patterns to test that implementations match AWS. I agree it’s lacking things, but th

I think that it has two flaws: - It is too machine like in its definition and requirements and misses the spirit of the ask. - It very much waterfalls it, without asking for feedback midway, or revisiting the original goals after things hav

I am aware of the current issues with open source licensing, but for my needs I don’t trust the elastic style licensing, especially when it claims to be open source but I can’t fork it to protect myself from a future rug pull situation. I c

Speaking of methodical, have you tried AWS Kiro? It has spec driven development, which in my testing yesterday resulted in a boat load of passing tests but zero useful code. It first gathers requirements, which are all worded in strange lan

Consumers are sick of being the victims of a power imbalance already. Social media sites do this kind of personalization on their feeds, but they do not provide the user the power to control their own algorithm. If every website is tracking

Discovered AEP this last year and started working with it. It's become a very valuable part of our API Design tool process, along with TypeSpec, OpenAPI, and Zudoku.

Check out https://aep.dev , they have a CLI tool for doing that, _if_ you write your OpenAPI to follow their spec. We are adopting it, both because of the nice standard it provides and also for the guaranteed tooling (TF, MCP, CL
