fcouryon Show HN: Min.js style compression of tech docs for LLM context

Does it work with any technical doc? I see the CLI claims it's Python specific?

  > $ llm-min --help
  
  Usage: llm-min [OPTIONS]
  
  Generates LLM context by scraping and summarizing documentation for Python libraries.

fcouryon Replicube: A puzzle game about writing code to create shapes

To save everyone a click, this is the video where he talks about this game:

fcouryon Void: Open-source Cursor alternative

One thing I noticed is that there's no cost tracking, so it's very hard to predict how much you're spending. This is fine on tools like Cursor that are all inclusive, but is something that is really necessary if you're bringing your own API keys.

Is this feature on the roadmap?

fcouryon Nnd – a TUI debugger alternative to GDB, LLDB

Is there anything similar to this that would support arm64? Unfortunately lldb is still not on par with even gdb.

fcouryon Pretty State Machine Patterns in Rust (2016)

Ok you just blew my mind with this pattern. I created a similar From trait only to take in an extra param so many times. Thanks for this.

fcouryon Claude Code Best Practices

Just tried it and it's indeed very good, thanks for mentioning it! :-)

fcouryon Claude Code: Best practices for agentic coding

Well, take that into consideration then. Just make it an option. Instead of getting 1000 requests per day with code, you get 100 on the $10/month plan, and then let users decide whether they want to migrate to a higher tier or continue using the API model.

I am not saying Claude should stop making money, I'm just advocating for giving users the value of getting some Code coverage when you migrate from the basic plan to the pro or max.

Does that make sense?

fcouryon Claude Code: Best practices for agentic coding

No, that's the whole point: predictability. It's definitely a trade off, but if we could save the work as is we could have the option to continue the iteration elsewhere, or even better, from that point on offer the option to fallback to the current API model.

A nice addition would be having something like /cost but to check where you are in regards to limits.

fcouryon Claude Code Best Practices

> ... usage limits that would make it very difficult to use for Claude Code.

Genuinely interested: how's so?

fcouryon Claude Code: Best practices for agentic coding

I totally agree with this, I would rather have some kind of prediction than using the Claude Code roulette. I would definitely upgrade my plan if I got Claude Code usage included.

fcouryon Twitch limiting uploads to 100 hours, deleting the rest starting April 19th

I did that, but not as a way to abuse the system. I used to export all my streams to YouTube directly from Twitch without downloading it first. I would just trim the beginning of the stream and sometimes split in more than one video if I had multiple content in one stream. I have hundreds of videos starting from 2018. I just thought this was ok and now I'm going through the effort of exporting them individually to a youtube account. I wish they had offered at least a way to export or download them in batch.

fcouryon CLI tool to insert spacers when command output stops

Very useful, thanks for sharing.

fcouryon ChatGPT Down

Claude working fine here. And I think parent meant affected because of the increased volume.

fcouryon Small Things

I agree with all the points here but I would argue that even Apple experiences have degraded over time. Specially the in store purchase experience degraded miserably. I used to be able to walk into a store and be guided to purchase what I was looking for. Now unless you have a time slot all you can do is schedule one.

fcouryon The Erlang Runtime System

If you’re intereste in BEAM and, like me, prefer to digest those things on a practical application, Tsoding did a very nice video about it recently:

Agreed, I was expecting something a bit more like this:

Thank you so much for the speedy response in all mediums I tried to reach out, downgraded to 16x for now, checking if it'll work.

fcouryon Show HN: WarpBuild – x86-64 and arm GitHub Action runners for 30% faster builds

Are you having any slowdown right now? I have been waiting for a 32x to pick up a job for some time now:

fcouryon SQLite Functions for Working with JSON

Sorry about that, it's just a shortcut for https://github.com/fcoury/oxide.

fcouryon SQLite Functions for Working with JSON

I started working in a MongoDB wire protocol adapter layer to a PostgreSQL backend and it relies heavily on the use of JSON functions.

I was really wanting to also allow for SQLite as a backend but not sure if we can do everything that can be done in Postgres. If anyone want to take a look and colaborate on that, here’s a link to the project:

And a quick ui for a quick try:

fcouryon Ask HN: What's the coolest physical thing you've made?

I used to be deep into the mechanical keyboards rabbit hole.

On of the nicest switches out there are worn in with time, so I created a machine that wore them in by pressing them multiple times. Never got to finish it but used it quite a bit:

fcouryon Cophone – Mobile work phones running in the cloud

The password reset page has some JS errors:

2.0b62168b.chunk.js:1 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<' main.b556c503.chunk.js:1 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<' manifest.json:1 Manifest: Line: 1, column: 1, Syntax error.

Thank you!

fcouryon Cophone – Mobile work phones running in the cloud

I subscribed but when I try to login I am getting this error:

> Something went wrong. If you forgot your password, you can reset it.

When I try to reset it I get a link and the link leads to an empty page.

Any idea what can be the issue?

fcouryon Rust, RR, Neovim: A perfect debug combination

I have written an extension for VSCode that replicates the repeat last test feature and lets you run the test under the cursor.

fcouryon GitHub staff are required to use Teams by Sep 1, 2023

I am not trying to defend Teams, I hate it. But Cmd+Shift+M does that on Teams on macOS.

fcouryon Ask HN: Metformin

I see a lot of praise for Metformin on the comments here. I did a quick search and it seems that the only long term side effect listed is B12 deficiency. I also saw a comment talking about lactic acidosis in the liver.

Are there any other known short and long term side effects? Did anyone have a bad experience while taking it?

fcouryon MacBook Pro featuring M2 Pro and M2 Max

They do. I am on a last gen M1 Pro MacBook 16" using a 240Hz display but it's capped at 120Hz.

fcouryon Show HN: Codeium – a free, fast AI codegen extension

I can't get it to work. Here's what I am getting:

fcouryon Ask HN: What are your “scratch own itch” projects?

https://github.com/fcoury/oxide even though not 100% there yet, got tired of telling customers they needed a MongoDB instance just for my apps :-)
