Not much to add, but as a very happy uPlot user here - just wanted to say thank you for such an amazing library!!

This is awesome! Would it be possible to ditch Twilio and build it as a peer-to-peer system though? Or does that always require a coordination server?

My point was that instead of blaming ML - or optimisation tools really - for gaming objective functions and coming up with non-solutions that do maximise reward, AI could instead b…

Is AI the danger, or is our inability to simplify a problem down to an objective function the problem? If anything, AI could help by "understanding" the real objective, so we don't…

2kW is literally the output of my patio heater haha

This is awesome! It makes reading the articles a lot more engaging as I can directly see comments without the back and forth :) I might start reading the actual submissions more of…

That's a great observation actually! They should've made the design do that automatically based on story ranking

I mean a startup doing something breakthrough, that blows Home Assistant out of the water. I'm thinking a system that figures out how to talk to devices using a mixture of hardcode…

I see a lot of comments wondering how AI could be useful as a software engineer so I'll give my take on it: I envision it being able to fully replace a junior engineer, and in some…

Best thing you could do, spend some time learning how it works properly (query keys, invalidations... ) and how you'd set up things like pagination. If at any point anyone goes lik…

Assuming you have a table where the identifiers are stored you'd have the internal one (UUIDv7) and the encrypted version from it (external id). You could rotate encryption keys wh…

We recently migrated to Poetry [1] for dependency management and so far it's been a breath of fresh air - it feels like what Python deps should've always been! You can even have de…

This is something I've been thinking for a while for my long term future! A dream of mine would be to setup a hostel of sorts, with an area for camping, a cafe, maybe food trucks i…

Sorry the position is now filled!

Well, I think there's value to both points - how much of the maps code would you need to be able to get something working, and how much work would it take to implement all the cust…

Ah yes apologies - edited the link, let me know if it works now! Thanks

I think they mean something like: [Client]->[Cloudfront]->[Load balancer]->[ECS service in a VPC]->[RDS/other internal systems] * Replace the above with any other cloud provider, o…

We should foster a world full of people who use their brains to interpret rules. If we're going to blindly do something because "it's the exact rule written here" then we might as …

PHP was my first language back when I was a teenager in highschool - it all started because I wanted to get some data from users and store it (I just knew basic HTML and CSS back t…

This has probably been said many times before - but it also seems like a new era for digital surveillance or espionage: bots could "befriend" humans, create full networks of fake p…

For fun or looking to do something with it?

I started installing a reversing camera in my car, but quickly realized I'll have to drill into the car to get the cables through so I've postponed it to another day when I'll star…
