my interest in s3 is for how easy it is - just need HTTP. mounting a filesystem and worrying about filesystem level locks is more complicated.

what was the Nix schism? Did something like systemd happen? or like, Determinate/commercial vs Not? Or more like USA culture wars / code-of-conduct flamers (i vaguely recall some d…

maybe wait until you have something to share before Show HN? overall your work seems like a cool thing that i’d like to look at in a few months once there’s more substantial educat…

i poked around in there, under choreographic programming there’s one example of something not in the language as a discarded idea. if you claim X and Y make us cool and different, …

Your README and docs don’t describe any of the interesting or unique things here. You cover `if` in README but not choreographic programming or perceus. Did i miss some big link? W…

it’s all relative and it really depends on your scale. if your usage fits in the included compute and request count you get for $60/yr it’s absolutely gonna be cheaper. on the othe…

it’s relying on consistency w conditional writes

sure, but s3 is far easier to buy and also far more reliable than typical distributed systems coordinator stuff like etcd/zookeeper/consul. every major cloud offers it, and there’s…

> cloudflare the stuff is great when it works but Durable Objects can be quite expensive. whenever i get too excited about em all it takes is a little time trying to price it out t…

bummer this expects NFS; this is all a brand new implementation vs what Cloudflare runs internally in production for DOs? I can’t imagine all your workerds share a single global NF…

what is the difference between celld and Cloudflare Workers open source version workerd? https://github.com/cloudflare/workerd

yeah, or when a dev starts the local development server (unless that server is containerized).

"make no mistakes" is not the "real solution"

yeah but they can just put the dropper, etc in index.js, so that it runs at import time rather than at install time, no? i guess first-install time is often a privileged developer …

i think “i added ocaml” is much bigger innovation token spend then the styling question

i think wayland set linux desktop back 10 years. it’s finally coming up to parity with X11. but basic stuff like “get the latest release of of consumer GUI app $foo” is still weird…

JaneStreet, see post title.

No. 98% of typescript specific syntax can be replaced with U+0020 SPACE to yield runnable JavaScript. The runtime semantics of the two languages are congruent. the same cannot be s…

> far outperforms the likes of kitty and ghostty this is not true on my machine, at least for my usual benchmark Doom-fire-zig[1]. on said benchmark, ghostty 1.3.1 runs at about 35…

Bring back grid Expose and grid virtual desktops!

it’s infinitely easier to become an alcoholic by buying alcohol at a grocery store. brewing is pretty much the least direct most delayed gratification way to get drunk. i guess it …

ok so it does have a library, but gp just thinks its bad

well then it doesn't sound competitive with software like Lightroom (which its name seems to mirror)

This seems like table stakes for photo library software. Apple Photos does this perfectly on Mac and iPhone. i want more powerful capabilities but I'm not willing to sacrifice UX ¯…

im sure people will continue to want to eat food, live in houses, go on vacation, look at phone, send email, drive car, even if there’s no ai money frothing around
