Great job on getting the fixes merged!
How could an agent bypass file permissions?
I came back from 6 months of parental leave in march 2026. When I left no one serious was using the tools for more than casual rubber ducking. When I came back my best colleagues were spitting out clauded PRs faster…
Nice. Would you mind explaining your current config?
> Enabled IPv6 autoconf (SLAAC) by default. Sweet! I’m just about to replace pfsense with openbsd on my router. Smoothly setting up ipv6 is a bit of a headscratcher atm, mainly because i’ve never had to understand it…
Isn’t it just regular price discrimination? Profit maximizing firms with market power charge different prices based on willingness to pay in order to sell to people who won’t pay a higher single value monopolist price.…
I’ve only had their platforms explained to me by them (palantir) at a conference but the mental model that stuck with me was more of an operating system than a single tool. Think AWS managed services + databricks +…
How is the output quality of the smaller models?
It’s the clear OLTP winner but for OLAP it’s still not amazing out of the box.
Maybe my brain is oversaturated with culture war nonsense from too much doomscrolling but that’s where my train of thought went too, even if it wasn’t directly implied. By claiming our ancient predecessors had terrible…
I like it! We have a service with a similar postgres task queue but we use an insert trigger on the tasks table that does NOTIFY and the worker runs LISTEN, it feels a bit tidier than polling IMO.
I had a few periods of doing the same in sublime text, I did use syntax highlighting though. It’s a really great feeling and very liberating, especially in a greenfield project. Can’t really justify it at work though,…
There's nothing wrong with nullable fields when it's appropriate. When kids are born they don't have names. Not all users want to tell you their names. A null value is data too.
The best practice way to swap fullname for firstname, lastname would be to: 1. Migration that adds firstname and lastname columns will all nulls 2. Deploy application code change to start populating firstname and…
Looks great! Can I run it on my own bare metal cluster? Will I need to buy a license?
Testing strategy? What’s that? I kid, but just a bit. Our use case is a data warehouse. We use DBT to build everything. Each commit is built in CI to a CI target project. Each commit gets its own hash prefixed in front…
Timescale is definitely worth a look. Pg_partman gets you part of the way. We ended up going with bigquery for our workload because it solved a bigger bag of problems for our needs (data warehouse). It’s very hard to…
Reuters really broke the site for me when they did what looked like a rewrite about a year ago. Glad to see this as I hardly read it anymore. bbc news is going downhill too, another prime candidate for a project like…
That’s confusing. What DDL did it do? Create new partitions?
My preferred way of working is plain sublime text and the terminal. I use command line tools for linting, formatting and type checking, wrapped in “make lint”. I find that sublime is just smart enough to go to the…
Sounds like a win from a product perspective, higher retention! Clearly a feature, not a bug. The metrics don’t lie! /s
This has been the case for years now, way before the AI craze. We just used to call it machine leaning. The best performing predictive models are black boxes which can’t practically be interpreted by humans the same way…
Interesting! Is there anything like this that I could host myself?
Strategically this is huge for the US and NATO. Being able to put orders of magnitude more payload in orbit at a fraction of the cost of the competition is a huge advantage in controlling space. Starlink and starshield…
One of my teachers did a paper on maritime disasters and concluded that women were more likely to die in shipwrecks, despite “women and children first”. The Titanic and Birkenhead were the exceptions.…
