My thoughts exactly
eats_indigo··on Biscuit is a specialized PostgreSQL index for fast pattern matching LIKE queries
How is the postgres ecosystem at stating when these kinds of things are ready for adoption? I can think of a usecase at work where this might be useful, but hesitant to just start throwing random opensource extensions at our monolith DB.

Love UV!

Also love Ruff from the Astral team. We just cut our linting + formatting across from pylint + Black to Ruff.

eats_indigo··on Tilt: dev environment as code
I think if you ever have highly dynamic infrastructure requirements -- think along the lines of a control plane that's spinning up additional workers -- it's really helpful to be able to run your infra provisioning logic locally. There's nothing worse than having to wait on cloud builds to test your iterations.

eats_indigo··on Yark: Advanced and easy YouTube archiver now stable
Bit of a noob question here. What's an archiver for?

Is it a library for things you've watched and want to store outside of youtube? Or is this for storing content you've created / managing your own portfolio of content?
