Its really fantastic. I can't imagine why you'd go through the effort using Claude Code with other models when pi is a much better harness. There's tons of extensions already avail…

If you ever want to use other models, pi can do that. In the middle of a session I might switch from gpt-5.2 to opus and get it to do something or review something and then switch …

Interesting point. And from the agents point of view, it’s always joining at the last minute, and doesn’t stick around longer than its context window. There’s a lesson in there may…

Unifi makes a doorbell and consumer (and commerical) security cameras which run and store data on a local device, but still reachable online with their app connecting directly to y…

Couldn’t deliver on anything?

I wonder who owns this eu-inc.org website and is selling the merch. In the ToS it states: >These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California

Honestly very confused by the people happy or agreeing with Anthropic here. You can use their API on a pay-per-use basis, or (as I interpreted the agreement) you can prepay as a su…

illegal?

Seems like a great day for Pulsar / StreamNative and Redpanda who are going to get a lot of new customers in the coming years. When looking for alternatives to Kafka these are the …

Pulsar supports the kafka protocol, so anything that works with Kafka should just work with Pulsar. https://docs.streamnative.io/cloud/build/kafka-clients/kafka...

Lukas Eder has a nice presentation arguing the same point: https://www.jug.ch/events/slides/180612_SQL_Algorithms.pdf I have recalled over the years this quote from his presentatio…

If anyone wants to chat with a developer (me) at Picnic, feel free to message me at the email in my profile.

It seems 'GPT-5 Pro' is not available via the API.

This and Materialize seemed like great tools. I met some of the team of Rising Wave at the Kafka conference last year in London and was impressed by their work. It may be great if …

Bluetooth and carplay do indeed work as you need to be connected to the vehicle. I used those features too. The ConnectedDrive feature discussed here is when you install the BMW ap…

I rented a BMW from Sixt in the USA earlier this year. I wanted to use the ConnectedDrive features, but it was blocked by BMW because the vehicle VIN was (correctly) registered as …

Amazon Q. Claude Code is great (the best imho, what everything else measures against right now), and Amazon Q seems almost as good and for the first week I've been using it I'm sti…

I've been down this path, and if my experience is more common, then it really boils down to the classic "Nobody gets fired for buying IBM", and here IBM -> Confluent. StreamNative …

I'm biased because I recently introduced ClickHouse at my company, but everything I've seen so far makes me think analytical and observability use cases like this "just work" in Cl…

You forgot the /s

My personal opinion is that nobody should touch OrientDB with a 10 ft pole.

Note that you will need a thread pool that’s large enough to handle 1 second (or whatever flush timeout you set) of events in your app concurrently. If you have thousands of events…

I’m concerned that a lot of commenters don’t appreciate the difference between a queue and a log. Kafka is not a queue. I think like most have said is that it’s just not a popular …

The design of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel, specifically the tunnel part, makes a lot of sense now. Imagine a US navy port (Norfolk) being inaccessible if this happened there.

First thought is can’t you set up calls with prospects and have the product _literally_ sell itself?
