    I agree, it took me a second to parse. It may be because this is the first time I've seen "frontier models" described as "Frontier AI". That sounds more like a company name, especi…

    Sounds great! I just started working through their tutorial this weekend too and hope to be able to make something like this soon.

    This is brilliant. This is absolutely a painpoint for me and other individuals that prefer to hold as much of their assets as possible in the market. The amount held over in checki…

    For infrequent events, why not both? A webhook to push the event and a full list at /events?

    I first ran into it when our database was holding negative values that we wanted to show as positive on the front end. To flip the sign we would multiply the stored value by -1. Si…

    This is almost exactly what I was imagining. Just subscribed to updates, very interested to see what this becomes!

    Interesting take, I'm not deep in the python ecosystem, but this looks like it's lightweight enough to function as a refreshable notebook. Will give this a try, thanks!

    I didn't know you could write SQL directly in Rmarkdown like this, very interesting. Thanks!

    I'm not a data scientist, but I've been interested in the idea of a "code notebook" ever since Jupyter hit it big. I write mostly in JS/TS for application logic, so this looks like…

    Anyone think that users will eventually become desensitized to the "malicious software" popup? If the process is this complex and buggy I imagine a lot of developers simply won't b…

    Will give this a try! With all the UML discussions lately it's made me nostalgic for having an ER diagram of my schema. This even looks simple / dependency free enough to run in a …

    > Traditional enterprises were the dominant software employers in the 1990’s, meaning that tech trends likely reflected their interests. That would be a good explanation for UML’s …

    I think there's a more positive interpretation to be found as well. Think of any type of task that you can get "in the zone", or a "flow state" with. Having an audience that reacts…

    Any relation to the recent "Hire me and pay what you want, just give me interesting work"? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26863052 ?

    This is a wonderfully in depth tutorial, thank you for taking the time to write this up! I’ve debated using PostgREST for projects before and I think this will push me to use it on…

    HN Who's Hiring has been the best in my experience, for a few reasons: 1) A massive plaintext feed dissuades some applicants, so finding a job posting that doesn't match obvious ke…

    As a generalist I've been able to find several positions with this strategy, even while hunting for my latest position during the pandemic: 1) Don't over-filter. Take the time to m…

    Hey HN, creator here. Near the end of 2019 I got the idea to listen through the backlog of some of my favorite long-running shows that had been going since 2010. It was possible, b…
