> It's all pretty decent and better than chiselling coal out of a pit for 10 hours a day. Your comment has made my day, perhaps my week. Well said.

Context: we've been using Azure Cache for Redis for about two years now. We have constant health checks that require a successful ping on redis. Normally, we might have a small con…

@reachableceo thanks for checking it out! Hope it's useful to you. Send any feedback my way any time!

Sharing here very much in the spirit of being embarrassed by what I'm showing. I'm more excited about the ideas than the implementation. I'm very curious to hear about others build…

Great point. The thing is that most code we write is not elegant implementations of algorithms, but mostly glue or CRUDs. So LLMs can still broadly be useful.

I think that we can already experience a revolution with LLMs that are not fully autonomous. The potential is that an engineering-like approach to a prompt flow can allow you to de…

Mario Zechner has a very interesting article where he deals with this problem ( https://mariozechner.at/posts/2025-06-02-prompts-are-code/#t ...). He's exploring how structured, se…

@manuelabeledo: during 2025 I've been building a programming substrate called cell (think language + environment) that attempts to be both very compact and very expressive. Its goa…

Hi HN! OP here. Thanks for reading and commenting -- (and @swah for posting!). It's unsettling to hit the HN front page, and even more so with an article that I hastily wrote down.…

Hi HN! OP here. Thank you everyone for reading and commenting. Thanks to your feedback I have done the following edits to the post: - Added a comment on GLP-1 agonists. I wrote the…

Hi HN! OP here. I would have never expected to find interest here for ultra running. But of course there is -- thanks for the comments! @n4r9: I avoid peanuts because I find them s…

Hi there -- I'm the OP of the article. > If you were my boss I'd be putting on my parachute and heading for the airstairs and expecting to see a plume of smoke wherever you impact.…

@swah, thanks for posting!

Thanks for the reply!

Thanks for the reply!

This could be interesting. My team works with Tailwind and we don't have a workflow that brings anything from Figma into Tailwind. So basically, we put Figma and our Tailwind proto…

I just burst out laughing with your last sentence. Great tip about Google Cloud! I would never have thought of that one. I'll check it out.

Hi HN! I am wondering if any of you is using a logging SaaS that you're happy with. I've been using logz.io but I am not impressed with it, and our team's research hasn't uncovered…

Hi HN! Over the last three months I've written a treatise (fancy noun!) with a view to understand computation systematically. My goal was to create, at least for myself, a coherent…
