    huge fan of elixir. and definitely have some dumb questions. in some of the realtime architectures i've seen, certain processes get priority, or run at certain Hz. but i've never s…

    founder here. i see open source as a better API for connecting it to other systems

    Show HN: A technique for better Claude Code results

    This burns a ton of tokens, but the basic idea is to create a cache in ./llm/cache and then spawn a bunch of subagents to look in the cache first, and then write to the cache if le…

    i appreciate you talking through it with me! i only have my limited experiences, and the term ERP is pretty fuzzy -- a CFO's view is a lot different than a head of production. a sa…

    EDIT: i'm going to remove the framer motion -- you're right. it's not helping. i've also got to optimize these images, but that's for another day.

    We try to hit the cache as much as possible, and all fetching is done in parallel with Remix. We try to make heavy use of their defer function to only block on the most important d…

    founder here. i often advise people to use excel (or some web-based). it's excellent software, and often the simplest way to solve a problem. it just gets untenable as the company …

    imo, these (supabase, trigger, upstash, novu) are the best hosted solutions in the world, but they are all self-hostable/apache/MIT. the easiest one to replace is upstash -- the @i…

    hey guys -- founder here. here's a little bit about me, and why i decided to build this: https://carbon.ms/#memo re: sage, i'd say that sage is well-known as being a great general …

    really well said, imo! it's interesting how there's two views of ERP. one is a G/L + anything needed to support it. and the other is more of a tool that supports operations and pla…

    i should also say that the accounting is a WIP but modeled on Dynamics 365 - with posting groups, item ledgers, cost ledgers, and general ledgers.

    Comment #44794187

    these are all excellent questions! i think, interestingly, the answer to all of them is basically -- there's an off the shelf version that's opinionated and good. and if you want t…

    for that we use "batch" tracking with batch properties

    ahh, it does -- but there's a slight hair to split. on sales, carbon supports quoting, sales orders, invoicing, configurator, etc -- but it does not attempt to create a website for…

    founder here. great question. the way i see it, the sales side should be bespoke -- because everyone has a different product, and way of selling/configuring, and the factory-floor …

    i don't know a ton about ERPNext's manufacturing capabilities, but i think there are really great for these reasons: - free to try - open source - well-documented - great developer…

    like a cmd+k type deal or something different? we do have cmd+k navigation to everywhere currently + global search, but i worry that less sophisticated users might not use it.

    we give people access to the same supabase API as us, but it's scoped to their company with RLS. the docs are autogenerated: https://x.com/barbinbrad/status/1873043714454811100 you…

    hey founder here. they are separate apps, but use the same database, and same api. i'm also a big believer in single-source-of-truth and the compound startup idea

    agree. it's very impressive how SAP maintains multiple ledgers for different regulations in different countries. i'm not going to replace that any time soon. i think even tesla use…
