This is an exciting project! My main feedback: you can definitely tell the website content is AI-generated. It's okay to vibe code the design, but I really hesitate when I see vibe…

Nice! Would love a brief explanation of the infrastructure. I see the Powered by "Upstash Redish Search", but why choose Upstash Redis Search vs something else?

When I began my career in programming I remember reading Jeff Dean's "Latency Numbers Every Programmer Should Know" [1], and getting inspired. Alas, it's been over a decade, and I …

Interesting idea! Question: > It is highly unlikely that an AI agent startup becomes wealthy by creating the best harness for a particular use case. If it's not the harness, what d…

It’s interesting that Claude chose to hint, rather than reveal the full truth or to lie. I wonder what in the training / system prompt causes Claude to do this.

I don't quite understand, what would 100K buy you? AFAIK you would get about ~5 concurrent users, with a max context window of ~128K tokens on the larger models. This wouldn't be g…

Instant gives you a database, but it also gives you a sync engine that you can use in the frontend. We included this instruction because you would ideally use this to build an app.…

Currently we recommend folks to write a script with the admin sdk. Efficient import / export is on the roadmap!

The UUID doesn’t actually affect the response. Every GET request still generates unique credentials each time, no matter what the value is that passes to /provision/ We added it to…

> Is this the kind of use case that is seen as valuable? I think it could be. Consider an argument like this: It's valuable to ask ChatGPT questions and receive text responses. Som…

Oi! Updated. Should be live in a few minutes, but here's the PR: https://github.com/instantdb/instant/pull/2642

One place where a tool like GETadb can be helpful, is when you as a developer wanted to build a quick demonstration. For example one of co-founders Joe saw a tweet about how VCs we…

Good question. Two ways: 1. For the users table specifically, we have a default rule that says `"view": "auth.id == data.id"`. This way even if the the user (or AI) did not set acc…

Here's my argument: In practice many GET requests don't adhere to this spec. For example, when you load a page, your "view" generally changes lots of things on the backend. Those c…

Ah, good point. We can't change the title now though.

Most LLMs in practice already read URLs. If you ask them a question they don't know, they will search and read pages.
