A series of articles on writing parsers using: - Hand rolled recursive descent in TypeScript - PLY, Python Lex Yacc - FParsec, parser combinator library for F# The goal is to compare each approach while tackling some common use cases for parsing strings of text.
An entity database (rest api on postgres so dB is a stretch) with a crud frontend for platform engineering. Adding a similar control loop to kubernetes and bash script (or executables) as the extension language. This way you can write all of your glue code into one platform and create an IDP at the same time. This came from a lot of situations where I'd need like one random thing to be stored in a database, but addin…
Job is very stressful as Q4 is peak-season for us. Managed to stick to some healthy habits though, like doing sport regularly and trying to eat less junk food. It ain't much but it's something I guess.
Also made a good deal on a broken Kitchen Aid machine. I want to repair it for a friend of mine who would like to have one but can't afford it right now. I think that will be a nice christmas present. Really need to get that going though, when time flies again.

It's hexagonal, compact and optimized for German and English thanks to noted (https://dariogoetz.github.io/noted-layout/)
Right now I'm testing key shapes and sizes and the manufacturing of key caps. I thought I needed a resin printer for best results but FDM printed caps with a blob of epoxy resin on top works surprisingly well.
There's no firmware yet, I have not even decided on a micro-controller or software. But I want to use Kailh Choc v1.
This is my first time exposing this project to the public so I'll be very happy about some feedback!
I'm working on a unique discovery app / recommender for books, tv, movies, video games, songs, youtube channels, newsletters and podcasts - and more categories soon! Since my last update here, I've added more detailed personalized descriptions of recommendations (hit Describe to request), including a rating out of 10 for how well the item meets your preferences. I've also added the ability to replace individual recom…
I was surprised to learn that each recommendation for preferences costs nearly 1 cent. From what I can tell, you don’t seem to be caching preferences. For example, each "Let's Go!" click on a show like say "Succession" generates some variation in the preference recommendations. My hunch is that if we ask LLMs to "over recommend" preferences based on the content you’re using (my guess is a mix of MovieLens, IMDb, TMDB, and Wikipedia) and do so in an ordered fashion (preference1 is a solid, but preference7 is a so-so), you could cache these results and strategically display them. For instance, when users choose to "fix" certain categories and get new recommendations for others, these "over recommendations" could help create variations without additional LLM calls. This could be repeated like N times until new categories require further LLM calls.
I am not sure if this would work with the personalized descriptions of recommendations part. I kind of love how they’re tuned based on my selected preferences.
I am curious about the design of the whole system. Fun project! Thanks.
I've noticed that my son spends way too much time on YouTube or playing Minecraft and one of the few offline activities he enjoys doing on his own is coloring. And since he comes to me every time he wants a new coloring book and we spend about 10 minutes together searching for each picture, I made a website with a collection of coloring books for him. The site is very simple, but to be honest, I haven't had so much f…

Beautiful work and presentation! Keep it up! How about a digital-coloring version too, that kids and adults can use on say a tablet, or even a phone?
