To add - I agree that payments is great question for systems designs. Merchants need to receive the money and being able to transact with it. Imagine the merchant receiving the pay…

I'm waiting!

Thank you! Worth mentioning that setting this via effortLevel in .claude/settings.json does not work. https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/35904

This is common across all corporations. My go-to example is Unilever or Nestle pushing products that are 100% unhealthy. In Asia, it's not uncommon to see healthy drinks for childr…

Are 'project rules' a thing? > .claude/rules/ .md Project rules > ~/.claude/rules/ .md User rules or is it just a way to organise files to be imported from other prompts?

Dora released a report last year: https://dora.dev/research/2025/dora-report/ The gains are ~17% increase in individual effectiveness, but a ~9% of extra instability. In my experie…

This was easy because it's a Chinese company. The largest companies in this space that do similar this (oxylabs, brighdata,etc) have similar tactics but are based in a different lo…

This is not an issue for me due to my workflow. I have a script for each of my projects that I run when I open a new terminal window (Alacritty). The scripts set up tmux with 3-8 t…

A chunk of the internet is down for me. So far Perplexity, AWS (VPN) and vercel. Seems AWS is limping: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45640772

[posted this in another thread, but maybe the author can clarify this] I wonder how this works when one runs test in parallel (something I always enable in any project). By this I …

I wonder how this works when one runs test in parallel (something I always enable in any project). By this I mean configuring JUnit to run as many tests as cores are available to s…

A side comment, I have found that configuring a few live templates in IntelliJ helps me to write a lot of the repetitive code just a handful of keystrokes regardless of the languag…

Would love to know if you found it's a real key or a fake one.

I find a bit odd that MS didn't have a couple of people in the board of directors, who I assume accepted Sam Altman resignation (and signed the severance package). Edit: I just rea…

I had the same problem (there's a github issue about this: https://github.com/canonical/microk8s/issues/2186 ). I swapped to k3s and the usage was half of what microk8s used.

I have the strong impression that most people confound cloud to be public only. Private clouds are fine and deliver a lot of the flexibility at a big % discount of a public cloud. …

I only skimmed through the article, but if I understood correctly the scammers made $23m, now have to repay $3.3m (which probably will never happen) and some of their assets were t…

Thanks for sharing this! I'm just getting my head around category theory (in Haskell). I would appreciate if anyone knows of a small project out there that uses category theory to …

Just saw this on LinkedIn posted by the author of the paper. He claims that with this, RSA 2048 can easily be broken. There's not much information about this yet, but if true it wi…
