    I was a heavy macOS Spaces user. Upon a recommendation to use Aerospace from somewhere else here a few months ago, I switched and love it. I considered Yabai, but some features req…

    At least with pnpm, you can specify minimumReleaseAgeExclude, temporarily until the time passes. I imagine the other package managers have similar options. [1]: https://pnpm.io/set…

    Game development is often a completely different set of skills and maintenance profile compared to enterprise SaaS development. Many single-player games especially indie ones don’t…

    I’ve been using Zed [1] for some time now. They are also pretty AI focused so it may only be a matter of time, but so far I’ve been able to disable all of the AI interactions. [1] …

    Many applications need a way to contact a user (security breach, password reset). If one only has a username and forgets the password, there’s no way to reverify the user.

    Fly has a form of auto-scaling. You have to provision the max amount of machines then you configure them to auto-sleep. It's possible that the creator didn't anticipate this much t…

    I can’t speak to the official decisions made by these camps/courses, but from my own experience as an undergrad, I was first introduce to MySQL, and the professors at my university…

    They can be, but they both offer PostgreSQL services. The article touches on Supabase’s other offerings, but the comparison is mostly on the database offerings.

    The browser EventSource constructor does not have options to pass in your own headers. You can pass an option to have it use the cookies for the domain you’re using. There are libr…

    Ah, I titled that wrong. Fixed! Mostly authentication, but authorization is also a topic I’m studying a lot recently. I feel like there’s more resources on that than the questions …

    Ask HN: Resources for learning niche aspects of authentication services?

    Over the course of my career, I've learned a lot about authentication, but I find that there's not a lot of resources for things you might need to know if you need to write your ow…

    You can still use `tsc` to validate the jsdoc types. It will spit out errors when types don’t match. You can use `tsc` to export the types defined in jsdoc and other projects that …

    I won’t speak for others, but I for one can’t stand the amount of extra packages needed to get a TypeScript project working. I need to install adapters for my linter, formatter, te…

    There is another way that isn't _as_ kludgy, but still not as nice as the JavaScript proposal: computation() |> then(&Map.put(my_map, key, &1)) It's the big reason the `then/2` fun…

    From personal experience, you don’t ever “just use TypeScript”. You have to install plugins, adapters, parsers for every other tool (linters, formatters, bundlers) to also make the…

    That's definitely more convenient. I think it could be nice to have an additional test suite not written in the same language as the thing you're testing. It would force you to int…

    We're seeing some issues possibly related to s3. Uploads working, but downloads seem to fail occasionally.

    My input probably isn’t as valuable except as a data point, but the company I work for (around 100 employees) moved all employees over to a 32 hour/4 day work week without a change…

    You can pass a ‘withCredentials’ option.

    I think that works great! The complaint I’ve heard is that you may need to support multiple ways to authenticate opening up more attack surface.

    He was likely using a polyfill. It’s definitely not in the spec and there’s an open discussion about trying to get it added: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/2177

    You cannot send custom headers when using the built-in EventSource[1] constructor, however you can pass the ‘include’ value to the credentials option. Many polyfills allow custom h…

    In general, I agree that sessions should be opaque tokens stored in an http-only, strict same-site policy cookie. I just had a few problems with a couple of the arguments: > 3. Cou…

    I would also add my (admittedly limited) experience to using CDNs in this way. If you do add the subresource integrity attributes (which a lot of major CDNs don't support because t…
