Show HN: Vigilant - Blazing fast dev-friendly logs
Hey HN! We're Ben and Izak, the cofounders of Vigilant. Vigilant is a lightweight tool for managing structured logs. It lets you centralize your logs, search them, and create alerts.We used Cloudwatch for logs on our last product, and it was quite painful. Even basic searches felt tedious. We’ve used dedicated observability tools at past jobs, but most of them have a steep learning curve and...

Re:Texture-Less Text Rendering

Neat! I don't often see text-rendering algorithms I didn't try myself. I implemented several at my startup. This wouldn't have saved me because I needed resolution independence, and anti-aliasing. Also it might not generalize to all bezier curve font files. Converting curves to pixels can be hard, especially when glyphs cross over themselves. In general, it feels like standard text rendering is solved, and non-standard use-cases are brutal to attempt.
This actually seems conceptually similar to my favorite method by Will Dobbie (but much simpler). Both take raw font data and use it directly on a shader. The difference being, this method takes pixel data and stores it in arrays. Will takes svg path data and stores them as a "vector texture"
He made a cool demo, if anyone is curious: https://wdobbie.com/warandpeace/
Ask HN: How do you manage feature flags?
I'm trying to learn how other people manage feature flags & rollouts. Basically:What do you do? Do you use a platform? Why do you like that solution?Thanks!

I went to a state school, dropped out, applied with no traction, no AI, and got into YC.
