Sam is not an asshole. His twitter is great, he's definitely opinionated, and if you haven't had the luck of meeting him you might misread his tone as grumpy. It's not. It's sarcastic/dry humour and honest. They

Iroh seems more comparable to an L7 scoped Tailscale than it does IPFS. It's good, but pretty unrelated.

IDK, it looks like servers were up, connectivity worked well, and some builds were failing. Wouldn't call that a big issue, and the same thing was happening with Vercel due to their git clones etc. yesterday too. IOW, doesnt look as

If you're testing the interface, changing the implementation internals won't create any churn (as the mocks and tests don't change). If you are changing the interface, though, that would mean a contract change. And if you&#x

I really, really want this updated too and saw it in my bookmarks. Figured the historic data was interesting, and that someone might want to give this another go.

Actually, both Vercel and Cloudflare are based off of the API that we built at https://inngest.com (disclaimer, I'm a founder). I strongly believe that being obvious about steps with `step.run` is important: it improves o1

Yeah, just... like, don't use ctx from WithContext after the errgroup. WithContext is an API that specifically and explicitly cancels the context on error. It's absolutely optional. It's not a bug at all. It's using

You can totally leverage postgres transactions to give someone... postgres transactions! I just figured that the exactly once semantics were so worth discussing that any external side effects (which is what orchestration is for) aren't

Anything that guarantees exactly once is selling snake oil. Side effects happen inside any transaction, and only when it commits (checkpoints) are the side effects safe. Want to send an email, but the app crashes before committing? Now yo

It’s not just the credit score - the APR offered is also chosen by the retailer. 0% financing costs the retailer 8%(ish) of the total amount, which is how the lender makes their money. So in your case, the retailer didn’t want to lose that

In the partnership model Waymo charges uber for the ride and Uber charges the customer. The interesting thing is that uber loses money on every ride. Waymo charges Uber more than Uber charges the customer. On Uber’s side, though, this is p

AFAIK, it's due to things like single frame construction and expensive + backlogged parts which you order directly from Tesla (as opposed to, eg, a drivetrain that may be made for 3 separate manufacturers). Or, when you do have an ac

There are only a few popular, promoted alternatives to NextJS right now (that I know of): Remix and TanStack. That is, if you're fully React focused, ofc. I dont see promoting Remix as a red flag.

The framework itself is super low overhead. You can deploy this anywhere, and if you deploy to inngest.com the P99 latency of starting agents is sub-50ms (and you can also realtime stream steps, tools, or model responses to the browser). O
