Isn't "creativity" the result of a combination of patterns (usually from different contexts) that casually works? I bet LLMs/agents can do that (we can't know how far that can goes…

I had a similar experience. My son had pneumonia and was still filling pain after 10 days of antibiotics. Took an X-Ray to three different doctors, and only one got the right diagn…

I thought the same. There are papers analyzing data about that. https://www.wiserhealthcare.org.au/too-much-of-a-good-thing-... > As well as being unlikely to be beneficial, full b…

Vozinha, Cape Verde goalkeeper, goes from 56K followers on Instagram to 1.4 million after an outstanding performance against Spain in the World Cup

It got me until "Remove lockfiles from version control"

The beauty of HN: frequently comments are way more valuable than the article being shared

Just for completeness, there's also mu-repo: https://fabioz.github.io/mu-repo/ We've being using it for years. Very simple to setup.

Yes, it went commercial. But Conda is still free. And the community had built conda-forge to maintain packages. Conda + conda-forge can completly replace Anaconda for most people. …

Just replace it with Miniforge: https://conda-forge.org/download/

I use Miniforge in a commercial environment and never found a package downloading from the main channel. I'm pretty sure a recipe that does that would be blocked by conda-forge rev…

How much of these 9% uses Apple Pay? My bet it's just a small part. People still use Pix and physical Credit/Debit Cards. Google Pay/Apple Pay are far behind.

> many scenarios where the only option was to pay with PIX I guess you want to say "only option _beyond cash_ was Pix". Most places should accept Passport ID to replace CPF. But if…

I followed with this rationale in a small project and opted for PostgreSQL pub/sub instead Redis. But I went through so much trouble correctly handling PostgreSQL disconnections th…

IMHO one of the biggest advantages of using HTMX is not having to maintain three layers of test suites (backend, frontend, end-to-end). You just need to test that your endpoints re…

I second that. I used Dash for a while. Although it's nice to have everything wired up for free, the code quickly becomes a mess as soon as you try some more complex things (or you…

I'm using a managed Postgres instance in a well known provider and holy shit, I couldn't believe how slow it is. For small datasets I couldn't notice, but when one of the tables re…

Exactly. Seems just a bait article from someone who doesn't know shit about what happened (similar to Dave Farley video blaming the Cyberpunk launch fiasco on the lack of CI/CD).

I agree that "still just demos" is an overstate. But I'd say that in 2015 a lot of people predict that in 2020 we'd have driverless Ubers everywhere. And that just didn't happen. T…

Holy... It still amuses me how much HN comments brings the reality to these kind of articles. > the plan is never followed. Sometimes it's even worst. As we add more tasks during e…

I've being using YNAB4 for about 10yrs now. But I miss a mobile version to report daily expenses. Do you see any major drawback comparing to YNAB4?

Any known issue on implementing a queue with Postgres? Do you at least know it has a pretty good pub/sub mechanism?

Anywhere I can get more details on what "undermine its producer" means?

Although I liked the proposal (the `-> User | Exception` idiom is quite beautiful), that's a deal breaker.

Same feeling. How this article came up to the top? The example he gives is terrible "someone used a modern framework was hacked, but the performance was not caused by the hacking, …
