Take a look at github.com/dimensionalos/dimos. We are a team making - not only a replacement for ROS - but one that can be easily vibe coded, and one with compatibility with ros an…

As someone who has used ros2, I feel fine passing judgment; it is terrible. If its easier to write your own stack, do it. Your own stack will be easier to add to and maintain long …

There's lots of alternatives. Others have mentioned invites and proof of work, and I'll mention a third alternative: a voucher system. E.g. I make a new hackernews account, and say…

Using a real identity doesn't fix that problem either though: advertisers just pay real people in India to do ID checks.

I guess I'm the only one that appreciates the extremely minimal site design. Main page was interesting, clicked about, understood the idea, clicked login, enjoyed having no passwor…

One of my long term goals is generating tauri builds on the web. E.g. click "build" and wasm cross compiles a .exe, a .app, and a .appimage which start downloading. Theres a long w…

I ran into many similar problems, sadly I don't think your example is an outlier. I had to write my own simple HTML bundler ( https://github.com/jeff-hykin/html-bundle ), not cause…

What prompted you to read it?

For context, AFAIK, I maintain the largest Textmate (read as "regex document") grammar in the world; the C++ textmate grammar for VS Code. (Don't mistake that as bragging, its a li…

And they still don't fix the escaping problem. You might as well use a niche utf8 emoji as a separator. Editors at least know how to consistently render an emoji.

> Efforts to standardize them I actually just finished a library to add proper typed parsing that works with existing CSV files. Its designed to be as compatible as possible with e…
