dalbaugh··on Show HN: OpenMRP – an open-source manufacturing ERP built over 4 years
Plan is to consolidate on Postgres eventually. Ideally each service would be fully isolated, but practically speaking it is easier to allow them to utilize the same DB for most things. The agent service is the only service with it's own dedicated DB, and that is the PG one.
dalbaugh··on Anthropic acquires Stainless
Oh definitely - the talent at Stainless is incredible. Not trying to take away from that at all.
dalbaugh··on Anthropic acquires Stainless
You guys should be proud - it was a great service!
dalbaugh··on Anthropic acquires Stainless
I'm really disappointed that such a great service is getting taken off the market. Happy for their team, but sad for the ecosystem.

This has to be somewhat anti-competitive. Why else sunset the SDK generator service but to hurt any other company (OpenAI, etc) who relies on these for their SDKs?

dalbaugh··on Designing a Passively Safe API
It's mostly semantics. Passive safety is the "why" while idempotency is the "how".
dalbaugh··on Ask HN: What are the best engineering blogs with real-world depth?
Excellent blog
dalbaugh··on Covid-19 mRNA Vaccination and 4-Year All-Cause Mortality
Unfortunately, I don't think any additional evidence will convince vaccine skeptics of the safety of mRNA vaccines
dalbaugh··on HTTP API Design: HTTP Fundamentals
I've been reading everything I can find on HTTP API design the past few months. I'm particularly interested in learning about the finer details of great, human centered APIs. It's been surprisingly hard to find a lot of great resources on the topic. So, I am writing up some of the basics for my own reference but also for others who are interested in the topic as I progress in my research. This article goes over the basic semantics of HTTP. I know many here are much more experienced and have operated at a much larger scale than I have (I build APIs for smaller factories), so please point me in the direction of resources you believe would be useful as I continue to study!
