    This has changed actually, since this month you can use claude code if you have a cloud pro subscription.

    Do you have the source available for this? This is something I'd quite like to selfhost as well :)

    It might not be a feature, but it is a selling point. It conveys that it was written relatively recently, is more likely to support modern features in the shell, runs reasonably fa…

    GDO: Garage door Opener, a passkey enabled web interface to trigger opening my garage door. It's basically just a 2 button website, 1 button opens and closes the door with a delay,…

    They could easily make the device accept 10 or even 20 devices at a time, with a simple LED on for each indication progress. Just check up once an hour and move done iPhones to the…

    Pretty sure they offer that already, https://tailscale.com/blog/golink/ has more information on embedding the tailnet within a program.

    If only that was true, the only way to remain cloud agnostic seems to be to use Kubernetes and some kind of managed sql database. Once you factor in some things like pubsub, SNS, d…

    I'd say most of these patterns are supported by NATS, it can do pub/sub but actually also has excellent support for RPC and in the latest iteration it also has a KV store baked in.…

    Words and their usage change over time. The cloud has become a term for a place where you can easily rent compute power, in some way or another. That ease of use (you just provide …

    Duo repo seems to be the sweet spot for me. 1 for actual application code 1 for infra as code First can automatically create a PR to the second when any component artefact changes.…

    S3 is region based, not AZ based. So it should be able to tolerate an entire AZ (=DC) being lost. They offer an amazing number of 9s for durability, it is very unlikely that a sing…

    > Less than 100% reliability is essential This is actually a take most SRE's would / should believe. Every added 9 to the reliability increases the price exponentially. Finding the…

    It is, but you cannot deny they host a majority of the open source projects that almost everyone uses daily.

    Anything related to storage or compute? I couldn’t image having a 2tb drive 20 years ago, but having a 2tb ssd in my laptop is kind of amazing

    I’ve done some stuff with it. Works pretty well but not perfect. Insertion times grows linear with index size, up to tens of milliseconds with an index of couple 100k documents. Go…

    In Dutch companies it’s done by Justis, a separate government agency that basically tells companies if you’re fit to do a certain job. It’s based on what job you’re going to perfor…

    Is this about the AI or about the use of regular technology that could hurt citizens? Facial recognition and pattern recognition both seem like tech that isn't necessarily AI but a…

    I don’t think this should surprise anyone. Go is an excellent language for quick prototyping and easy distribution. The investment to become fluent in Go might literally be an orde…

    Did not expect these results, has anyone done similar tests with other timeseries databases?

    I'm slightly confused, is it going to be called xyz? Or OAuth XYZ, or Oauth 3? In either case, I am excited about it, I do hope it will be easier to use as well.

    What features do you use the most? I'm looking to extend a personal project for searching epubs to be more featureful when compared to calibre.

    I recently created https://github.com/gnur/tobab that looks similar to your needs. It's an identity aware proxy that uses google as an identity provider (but more could be added). …
