progxon I built the fastest PHP webserver in the world

Workerman does something else.

progxon We replaced Redis with MySQL for inventory reservations and it scaled

Why is it so hard for many people to accept, that this is a solution for a specific problem of shopify? They did not say that Redis is bad and MySql is good. They only a solve their problem.

progxon Hop.earth – OpenStreetMap based car racing game

Cool idea, but please make it better!

progxon You don't need React: creating a minimal UI library in Vanilla JavaScript

progxon I don't recommend Tailwind CSS

"Nothing stops you from using sky-400 and blue-400 in the same project. Consistency still depends on your discipline, not on the framework."

And how did plain css solve that? You're mixing up a few issues there.

progxon I don't recommend Tailwind CSS

Or:

  .button {
    padding: var(--gap-s) var(--gap-m);
    background-color: var(--color-indigo);
    color: var(--color-white);
    font-weight: 700;
    border-radius: var(--gap-s);
    &:hover, &:focus {
        background-color: var(--color-indigo-hover);
    }
  }

Fair comparison (i really don't like this too):

  .button { padding: var(--gap-s) var(--gap-m); background-color: var(--color-indigo); color: var(--color-white); font-weight: 700; border-radius: var(--gap-s);    &:hover, &:focus { background-color: var(--color-indigo-hover); } }

;-)

if you don't like this.

  .button {
      @apply py-2 px-4 bg-indigo-500 text-white font-semibold rounded-lg hover:bg-indigo-700 focus:bg-indigo-700;
  }

why not write it like this?

  .button {
    @apply
      py-2
      px-4
      bg-indigo-500
      text-white
      font-semibold
      rounded-lg
      hover:bg-indigo-700
      focus:bg-indigo-700
    ;
  }

progxon Annoying and alarming things about OpenCode

I've had the same experience. Tried it and use in 2 hours more token than in a whole week. Normally i got 80 - 90 % cache hit rate.

progxon The Kimi K3 Moment

And how much token and time you use to solve a problem? The price alone doesn't mean anything.

Example DeepSeek-V4-Pro (high) needs 10 times more token then GPT 5.5 (medium) and can compete only with the price.

The real price saver are the cache prices, the ting, that nearly nobody has on their radar.

progxon The Kimi K3 Moment

Ockbench: https://ockbench.github.io/ show token usage and accuracy, but you have to compare it with other stats (prices and speed).

progxon The state of open source AI

"Open won"... to be fair cause "google paid it".

progxon Grok Build is open source

No lol if you read why: https://github.com/xai-org/grok-build/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING...

progxon I'm Tired of Talking to AI

You are absolute right, would you like to talk about something else?

Prepare for landing "rate limit exceeded" (Error 429)" ;-)

progxon We've raised $17M to build what comes after Git

Why should ai need this? A linear backlog is enough, a cache, for everything else they can create it new in a short time.

progxon Git commands I run before reading any code

Before, I ask AI "is this project maintained" done.

progxon Show HN: I took back Video.js after 16 years and we rewrote it to be 88% smaller

Awesome! And thank you all for your projects and your hard work!

I hope the plugin directory get an overhaul too and a prominent place an the webpage. The plugin ecosystem was for me a huge benefit for Video.js

Even though some of them are outdated, they were a good source of inspiration.

Has any competitor copied anything from Deno?

progxon 404 Deno CEO not found

Wait until a big company buy them. That seems not to happen.

Anthropic acquired Bun, so money should not be a problem for the next couple of years.
