I made a lightweight web game about compute CAPEX tradeoffs: https://darios-dilemma.up.railway.app/ No signup, runs on mobile/desktop. Loop per round: 1. choose compute capacity 2.…

Congrats Tom!

Congrats! Cool project! I’d been curious about whether GPT would be good for this task. Looks like this answers it! Why did you choose markdown? Did you try other output formats an…

No. At the moment all apps work on top of our internal framework. However, you can reuse your existing Python code/libraries. For instance, you could call existing Django models fr…

I like your take on that! I hadn't thought about it that way before but "Writing two files to build a webapp" indeed sounds quite intriguing. And we could extend that idea to "...a…

Thank you! I read your blog post and checked out your project! If I understood it correctly, you’re trying to build a software engineering team in a box. Basically from first issue…

Hey HN, Dropbase is an AI-based Python web app builder. To build this, we had to make significant changes from our original launch: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38534920 . …

Interesting approach to just do json instead of protobuf!

Can you provide examples of 2 services that interact with one another? Do the services call each other, or do clients call a service that then calls another service?

Why should someone consider setting up an RPC/gRPC server instead of just using REST APIs, GraphQL, and other approaches? Are there particular types of applications, use cases, or …

Co-founder of Dropbase here. We're a better fit for you given your comments about Django and being in the same repo. We are an internal tools builder that works with your existing …

This is awesome!!! I'm really impressed with the demo. In particular, with how fast it seems to work given the number of models you use, the client-server back and forth, and the r…

Cofounder @ Dropbase (dropbase.io) here. If you just need to build internal tools with Python or want to build internal tools on top of your existing Python codebase, give us a try…

It depends on your use case or development preference. Check us out at Dropbase ( https://dropbase.io )

Is your cron running locally or do you have it set up on a server?

Woa! That's quite a bit. What do you use for your static site generator? Or is a custom tool you built for yourself? Curious, how do you organize or keep track of all your scripts?…

How do you usually trigger scripts? Do you do it via Ansible or manually via terminal?

Wondering if there are any automation scripts that people frequently run at work and what the scripts do. Did you write the scripts to automate your own tasks or for your org/teams…

Airplane customers: Our engineering team is in the position to help you migrate your Airplane UIs/Tasks to an alternative platform, even if it’s not to Dropbase. Cofounder of Dropb…

Streamlit is a great. Despite the fact that we are both Python-focused, the use cases for the two products are mostly different at the moment. When it comes to triggering tasks/act…

It has actual source for the worker. We aren't worried about it being leaked because we are not particularly trying to hide it in the first place. We will probably make source avai…

That's an interesting use case. Thanks for sharing. I think I understand your point better after reading this. I agree that having to pay xx$ indefinitely for presumably many end u…

Lol not sure if your comment was meant as a joke, but wanted to clarify in any case to clear up any misunderstanding: We don't exfiltrate your sensitive corporate data. The self-ho…
