What they don't need is hardcoding support for five JS package managers in their python files. In the post the maintainer says that an older version of bun "results in the ejs lockfile being ignored". The reason is that they

Or better yet, can someone explain why they build JS from python scripts with manual support for each package manager and a lockfile for each? Obviously the JS build should happen outside of Python and use one package manager instead of att

I speculate that I could indeed "vibe code" a better JS build integration because what they have does not make sense at a first look. It appears they mixed JS building into their python project, aiming to support multiple package

There's 10-15 labs near the frontier, and like 30 serious inference providers, over 70 total on OpenRouter. With research and hardware near guaranteed to bring the efficiency way up, I'm not scared here of massive price hikes. The

I don't see the benefit of checking in either prompts or specs. I never tried spec driven development for myself, but if I review other's MRs I am typically exhausted after the first 10 lines. And there are hundreds of lines, near

It would seem to me that the main source of food insecurity is violent conflict rather than greed.

I often hear people talk online about burning data centers to avoid some capitalist dystopia. It just seems incredibly pessimistic to me. Who wants civil unrest? The rich elite does not want this either. We will pay people. Capitalism is no

The difference is that you don't just pull again. You guide the originally mediocre result towards a good outcome by providing feedback and potentially technical insights. That's not a gamble, it works reliably enough.

Thanks, I appreciate the info. But I don't think I'm going to email the mods and beg them to remove me from some list they added me to without notifying me. I don’t feel like apologizing for complaining about the drivel some write

I hope to publish my app in a month or two, after sufficient polish, market research, and App Store optimization. As I said, it's not exactly realistic to ask for numbers and a Photoshop competitor within two months.

I am working like 20 hours a week on my new iOS app with Codex. People on here talk like it was some belief or suggest I am somehow profiting from "hyping" AI. Is it so hard to believe that agentic coding now works? Engineers are

This is pretty much true. Before Codex with GPT 5.4 and 5.5 I was working on a single feature only, no parallel conversations, and a ton of permission prompts would make it impossible for the agent to even work for five minutes on its own.

I understand Codex had 500k weekly users at the beginning of the year, now they have 4M. GPT 5.4 came out at the start of March, GPT 5.5 end of April. What do you expect, that we all go to market with a Photoshop competitor within two month

Microservices in big companies where you have to first write the spec and then fully understand the changes is maybe among the least benefiting use cases yet. When you work on just a new mobile app, this is where I find AI is making the big

I don't think the owner lied, but rather that the entirely speculative comment on here is obviously wrong. It says here in the comments that it's mistaken about the supposed previous existence of the crate.

No. I just use claude -p to review some Codex output. The Pro plan is barely enough for this after the doubling of usage limits.

After the recent doubling of usage limits Opus 4.7 via claude -p barely offers enough usage on the Pro plan to review changes I make via Codex. I assume that with API pricing it will run out in the first week and I might as well unsubscribe

On GitLab even if you set the same cache key it will not cross between unprotected and protected runs. GitLab just adds a -protected suffix to the cache key. It seems baffling that GitHub does not do this trivial separation, if I understand

What I don't get is how the GitHub Action cache is shared between unprotected and protected refs. Is that really the case? Why even have protected branch rules when anyone with write access to an unprotected branch can poison the Actio

It's not about the number of users but the kind of software you develop. In a mobile app, do you think it's more important to test that your drag gesture works as expected on the phone, or to understand every line of the implement

That breaks if the library uses build scripts, like for setting up native binaries, or native modules linked against the specific Node version. If you want a vendored deps model you can look at Yarn Plug and Play which does this via .zip fi

I‘ve recently started to use skills and so far it’s been working great. Your agent can write a python script to loop and simply call „claude -p“ or „codex exec“. For simple workflows this seems good enough and can be set up in 10 minutes wi

Skills are not fairy dust but a combination of prompts and deterministic code, so that you get the best of both worlds. Eg. Loop in the code, process the subagents non-deterministic response for the individual task. This takes 10 minutes to

I can’t comment on the behavior of ancient npm versions, but with modern npm I would not even know how to skip using a lockfile. As for the parent comment about not using the lockfile for the production build, that’s just incredibly incompe

If you listen to people on HN you could think AI is not increasing productivity or is even having a net negative effect. I think the reality is different. In this thread I saw the resume of an engineer affected by this Cloudflare layoff. In
