I feel like there's a fundamental shift in the user interface that's causing this. People are starting to expect an "agentic interface" - that they are able to give kinda vague inputs and nudge things to work in a way th

If you're willing to take the pain of setting up an actual authz model, I've found OpenFGA^ to be really nice. We used it to set up some pretty complex authz involving cross-agent/user/org creation and sharing of data. I

I really want to love KeyCloak. I've had really bad experiences with weird uptime bugs and crash loops that kept me from giving it an honest retry over the last couple years. It also really shows its age, imo. The interface is clunky,

Keycloak and Better Auth aren't as fundamentally different as you may think! Better auth supports authn/z, being an identity _source_, being an identity provider, being an OIDC/SSO provider (so others can login using better a

ECS really isn't scalable. imo a multi-account EKS cluster is a bare minimum. It's what I use for my todo list app, and it works great!

This seems to be focused on Python, but for all the TS devs out there, what you'll see will be implicit `any` errors. Quick word of warning on having LLMs fix those - they love to use explicit `any`s or perform `as any` casts. This mak

There's an easy shortcut in the second level past the climb on the pink pipe and before you climb the ramp where you can jump to the semi-circle on the lower platform on the other side. Love it!

Hey folks! I wrote this based on an office discussion on TLS, and because resources I found on TLS were all pretty surface level. This is the first time I've tried to write a technical blog post, so I'm looking for all the feedbac

It would be really interesting to see whether this holds in Middle Eastern countries or other places where the work week starts on a Sunday.

Oh wow, we're building something very similar to this. We were literally just filling up the YC form for S23 too haha. I may be a bit biased, but I think this is an excellent idea, and it can change the way testing works for backend se

Congrats and good luck on the launch! Ok so in general I'd chalk this up to being disinterested, but I think this is relevant for a product meant for people with ADHD: After a couple pages of choices, I was met with a screen with optio

To be fair, it'll probably be a lot easier to replace the battery on that dell (and the system76, I imagine?) than on the Macbook. That evens things out even if the battery doesn't last.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the criterion be that the probability of death is the same between 80-90, 90-100, and so on (for example) to say that humans stop aging after 80? Saying that your chance of dying is 50% after

Agreed! I'm pretty sure they're just using O(x) to mean on the order of x, since big O of any constant is the same (unless that's their point??? :O)

A similar idea was put forth on the math stack exchange [1], which I found through this 3blue1brown video [2]. Worth a read/watch! [1] https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/30046/alternative-n... [2] http

Doesn't ON UPDATE only work for foreign keys? As far as I know, it's used to update the foreign key itself, and not values based on relationships.

I meant to focus on the cascade part of the equation here. For example, lets say `stars` are foreign keyed (FKed henceforth) to repos, and (say) `X` are FKed to `stars`, and `Y` is FKed to `X`. Then if you do a "hard" delete of th

Not sure what you meant? Are you pointing out couldn't vs didn't ? If so, I didn't really think about it, although now that you point it out, I think didn't would've been a better fit. I'll edit it, thanks

I agree that undos are pretty nice for when errors are possible, but I think there's a really good reason to put up warnings too. Let's say they accidentally made the repo private, but didn't notice it (unlike what happened h

Sure, I understand that. But I think, as a designer, I can't really control the actions of my users. I can only try to design such that I can get them closer to the action they want to take. From that perspective, I think adding the ad
