Sorry for the late answer and the missing context. usef- is right, the manual is probably the better page to share. Amp tries to give you a plug and play experience, where you can always see the actual costs and models/effort are autoselected for you. Some of my colleagues are big fans and use it a lot. I also like it, but prefer OpenCode.

Hello HN :)Promptinel is a security scanner for prompts. I think the world needs something like this, because prompts are basically executable artifacts and we need to treat them as such. I want to identify as many bad things as I can before a prompt gets anywhere near runtime. Especially when supplying a common prompt repository for friends or colleagues, or when downloading skills from the...
I tried to:
- Make a simple admin CRUD layout
- Add some widgets
- Add a login/logout section in the navbar
- Make it all responsive
The first three steps worked amazingly. But the final step was probably just too difficult and I got some broken-looking site.
Still nice though, good job.
We recently adopted Bruno at our company and I'm very happy with it. Versioning your requests with GIT is great, and the client is really nice as well.
Funny, the weather bit is also true of us Germans. Even our saying is almost the same. "Es gibt kein schlechtes Wetter, nur schlechte Kleidung." And we also have this one: "Wir sind ja nicht aus Zucker." (We're not made of sugar.)
May I ask why you think so?
I have been using z for many years now, and I cannot recommend it enough. This is one of the most useful tools ever.
Some of our workflows don't even show up anymore which is unfortunate...
PHP, Go, and TypeScript. I like them all.
Oh, that was fun; great article! During my MA, I wrote a paper on Swedish Melodic Death Metal lyrics and what common themes they have. I can't seem to find the paper now, but I remember having a blast. I think the result was something like anger, violence, and loyalty/brotherhood.
This so accurate it hurts. And it's also super funny. Good job :)
Getting an invitation is rather easy. Just write a nice email and explain why you would like to join.
He's got a point. TypeScript alleviates some pain, but I still feel like JS is not a great language. I have some nostalgic love for it because I used to be "the JavaScript guy" at the beginning of my career. But ever since I started using TS and Go, using Vanilla JS feels like fighting code smells and complexity all the time. At the same time, I acknowledge and appreciate how much JS has improved.
This was super interesting, thanks for sharing.
Io was featured in the book "Seven Languages in Seven Weeks: A Pragmatic Guide to Learning Programming Languages", which I can recommend.
Yes, $15/month is a little steep. SVG backgrounds are nice, but who needs so many for so much money...?
Working on a Mac wouldn't be the same without Homebrew. Thanks for all the hard work!
I am not a big fan of nesting. I have yet to see a codebase where nesting makes CSS more readable. Even with BEM, I find it easier to reason about (and debug) the vanilla style. However, I must admit that `&:hover{}` does have a certain appeal. Also, I am very happy that nesting can be done without tooling in the future. It's a feature that many people love.
We've also been copied in the past. At first, it was a little concerning. But it turned out that people cannot be ahead of you if they're busy copying your features.
Symfony. It's just so much fun to work with.
This is way more amusing than it should be.
Are there some books that you can recommend?
I can wholeheartedly recommend it. Grave's Claudius series is also great!
I already read Slade House, Cloud Atlas, number9dream and Ghostwritten. I'm REALLY looking forward to all the others! :)
The best works of fiction I read:
- Count Belisarius by Robert Graves
- The Bone Clocks by David Mitchell
- The Expanse (all of them)
- Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir
And the best books on software development were:
- Fundamentals of Software Architecture: An Engineering Approach by Mark Richards and Neal Ford
- Multithreaded JavaScript by Thomas Hunter II and Bryan English
- The Programmer's Brain by Felienne Hermans
Nice article, I like it. I can recommend "Programming TypeScript" by Boris Cherny (O'Reilly, 2019) and "Effective TypeScript" by Dan Vanderkam (O'Reilly, 2019), if you want to learn more like this.
Almost never. You have to specifically search out those doctors.
Or avoid them.
Sadly, many Germans believe in homeopathy...
