isuckatcoding··on Show HN: REST Alternative to GraphQL and tRPC
More a comment on the main page.

Show some code or small example on that main page. I have no idea or sense to compare it to graphql without some small toy example.

isuckatcoding··on jq 1.7
I’m not sure this answers the question. I was expecting some post about someone like the main contributor quitting or something.
isuckatcoding··on Show HN: Whiz – A copilot for your terminal
What are the security implications of this?

If you ask it something like “pipe the output of <CLI> using <MY_SECRET_TOKEN> to grep to find XYZ”

isuckatcoding··on Bun v1.0.0
It’s not uncommon to have a nodejs library take like 10-15 mins to go through building and testing in GitHub actions CI
isuckatcoding··on Chicago’s parking meter disaster
Please be more vague
isuckatcoding··on 37signals Introduces "Once" - Buy software one time
If we’re just talking about standalone software, say OG native desktop photoshop for instance, then sure. However, any web based service is, by design, going to need to charge a subscription given the downstream hosting and infra costs.
isuckatcoding··on Figma makes 200 fixes and improvements to Dev Mode
“Developers go back and fix tech debt and shortcuts accrued due to short release timeline”
isuckatcoding··on Students’ insight proves that the local-global conjecture doesn’t hold
Yeah the title of this article is a very poor choice of words
isuckatcoding··on Ask HN: I think most SaaS can work well SQLite. Prove me wrong
Curious if anyone has actually hit a scale where SQLite cannot handle their workload? What do you actually do at the point?

As a stupid example, lets say you’ve reached a write bottleneck.

Do I need to buy a ticket to attend?
isuckatcoding··on Show HN: Webhooks for platforms that do not natively support them
Cool idea. What happens when these services do start offering webhooks?

What does “intelligently” polling mean?

You’d basically have to poll on some schedule (ideally configured by the user).

isuckatcoding··on Show HN: WasmGPT – “ChatGPT” in the browser, no WebGPU and no server needed
Sometimes I wish chatgpt didn’t get any smarter than this
isuckatcoding··on OpenAI Tokenizer
I wonder if this is why if you wrote things in all caps in chatgpt, it sometimes has some effect on the response.
isuckatcoding··on PDF ChatBot – Upload, chat and interact with any PDF document
I’ve tried two similar services and for some reason both of them cap at 200pages. What’s your limit?
isuckatcoding··on ViperGPT: Visual Inference via Python Execution for Reasoning
There goes captcha
isuckatcoding··on Gitlab to lay off 7% of staff
Is that part of the Microsoft layoff?
isuckatcoding··on Show HN: Webapp.io - Free firecracker-based full-stack hosting
Ty for asking this. I was searching the docs all over for this and surprised it wasn’t mentioned.
isuckatcoding··on Ask HN: How to encrypt data in a SQL database?
Wouldn’t you have to re-encrypt if the envelope key changes?

Specifically I would think the decrypted data key is derived from the encryption key.

isuckatcoding··on On Resigning from the Board of the University of Austin
Indeed very cryptic. Not clear at all what the author is trying to say about the university aside from “wokeness” which is a very generalized term.
isuckatcoding··on Show HN: I made a local development, debugging and hotreload tool for AWS Lambda
Are Lambda functions doing so much now that they they can’t just be run locally?

I get that if you’re trying to access some AWS service, this could be helpful but in that case I thought the general consensus is basically mock things out.

isuckatcoding··on Realistic one-shot mesh-based head avatars
What is the real use case for this?
isuckatcoding··on Boston University Undergraduate Costs Reach $80k
More like 65k if you don’t live on campus and find something cheaper but also that is an insane amount to be paying.

In comparison, some schools in Canada over 4 years don’t even cost that much

isuckatcoding··on From Belonging to Burnout, Five Years at Airbnb
> while some of us took Ubers to work and shopped at Barney’s, others maxed out credit cards or could only afford to live in the East Bay

Hey now what’s wrong with being in the East Bay?

isuckatcoding··on I got an FBI record at age 11 from dabbling in cryptography (2015)
What a wonderful and adventurous life! I really enjoyed reading that.

Makes me think about what stories I’ll have to tell about my life in 40-50 years.

isuckatcoding··on Cannabis use produces persistent cognitive impairments: meta review
Your description of being messed up on weed actually sounds depressing.

I’ll take a hike in some beautiful nature anyday over depressing night in smoking weed. You have no idea how positive an effect being outside in nature has on you.

Interesting. The main page loads for me but the examples pge just shows a blank canvas. iOS Chrome.
