Love this! With integrations to 3rd-party data sources (like AirTable, Google Sheets, Databases, Notion, etc.), this can be a very useful product, especially for use with LLMs.

The trackpad calibration on my MacBook Air is almost okay, just a tad bit too slow/rigid to move around.

How about apps which only have the option of signing in with Google or some other social / 3rd party provider? Do you also not use other services like Microsoft's, Apple's, Facebook (Meta)'s? How do you in that case sign in?

Just started out building a micro-agency into software engineering and consulting. I left my 9-5 jobs in engineering and big-consulting to pursue my dream of building something myself. I love to code and build software and have always dreamed of bringing in change to the landscape around software engineering services.

https://shunyaek.se is my agency, "shunyaek"'s home-page. shunyaek refers to "shunya", meaning zero, and "ek", meaning one, in Hindi, my native language. It refers to the binary building blocks of the software & digital world. The landing-page is still under construction. Always open to feedback and crticism.

How are the unique IDs created? And how do you manage collisions with such small IDs? I am not sure but I think the collision rate should somewhere be around "~1 day or 33K IDs needed, in order to have a 1% probability of at least one collision." as per https://zelark.github.io/nano-id-cc/ with an alphabet that goes like this "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" and an ID length of 6 characters.

I have been looking for such a URL shortening solution for a client of mine and hop2 looks perfect with its minimal dashboard and simple usage. I am currently using a manual combination of Google Analytics and Bit.ly but it doesn't really work as I would. I have even tried building a URL shortener for this particular use-case and while I did succeed, adding analytics feels like a big task and an entirely seperate project of its own.

Genuinely curious, what stack would you recommend for building such an analytics tool?

I don't have much to say, but I love msgspec and just got started using it a month back. Thanks for making this incredible tool!

That is honestly not how HN works. Your mistakes could be mine and other's mistakes too and we too would have loved to learn from the discussions and updates that this post would have garnered.

Even though if we cast out the mistakes or whatever it was that you had posted out of the picture for a moment, it might just have been a good point of learning and reading for anyone.

Please do not do this going forward.

I am old! "Axa" is seriously everything that is wrong with the way newer generations are using the language with English alphabets! I still cannot believe people do this.

I have personally set a standard or a set of rules for writing Hindi using English alphabets myself and I have seen my friends follow the same. We do not use such shortcuts/shortforms.

Hell, even "Acha" is not the correct way. It must be "Achha" (double Hs).
