News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

geewee

That's almost certainly per server instance though, there's no mention of any type of synchronization across multiple instances, so if you e.g run many small ones or run the service as a lambda I'd be surprised if it worked like you expected.

We're also struggling with this, as we'd love to e.g. just run a formatter and commit the changed code in CI rather than just fail the code.
Re:Accelerating scientific breakthroughs with an AI co-scientist on Thursday February 20, 2025 @01:05AM (#43111622)
I tried Aider recently to modify a quite small python + HTML project, and it consistently got "uv" commands wrong, ended up changing my entire build system because it didn't think the thing I wanted to do was supported in the current one (it was).

They're very effective at making changes for the most part, but boy you need to keep them on a leash if you care about what those changes are.

Whoa! Small world. That was a fun story.

I think it depends on how thorny the thing you need to debug is. Race conditions, intermittent bugs that crash the process leaving no trace, etc. Debugging is much more than using a debugger

I don't really think we have. There are many open source projects that duplicate work for a variety of reasons. Perfectly fine for stuff you want to do, but probably not an optimal allocation of resources

Aw, I hoped for a second for global coverage.

I wonder if these graphs capture the new multi-threaded frontend that's on nightly.
It's unclear to me based on your post, but you do realize that public IPs very much count as personally identifiable information under the GDPR, right?
Yes, some of the forests will be untouched nature but a good chunk of it will be for timber production.

Does anyone have any idea if we can expect a MacBook Pro with M4 release announcement this week as well?
Re:Show HN: See the impact on your cloud costs as you code on Tuesday August 13, 2024 @10:13AM (#41235684)
Something similar (but not quite the same) exists through sources like CCF ( https://www.cloudcarbonfootprint.org/ ) or Climatiq ( https://www.climatiq.io/docs/api-reference/computing ) thought I don't think anyone has anything built-in to Terraform or your editor, which would be neat.

Disclaimer: I work at Climatiq

Re:My programming beliefs as of July 2024 on Wednesday July 24, 2024 @10:15AM (#41057348)
To be fair, I can remember 0 times where as an API consumer I've needed to do different actions depending on whether it was a 401 or a 403 - but I also mainly deal in API->API communication.
It happens even on prolonged vacations. So I don't actually have to get up at any particular time (my partner does) so I don't really buy the stress theory, it feels more like a pretty fixed circadian rhythm in regards to when I'm tired/awake - as I can push the rhythm but it takes a fair chunk of days. I imagine like adjusting to a new timezone.
It's meat all the way down!
I'm generally an early riser, and I just go to bed early and (generally) wake up a little before my alarm. Even if I go to bed late I wake up at around the same time (even though I might like to sleep in) I don't think that early risers are primarily due to external constraints hold.
If these toxins build up in animal cells - why would you eating meat (that must then have a much higher concentration) not expose you to the same toxins?
Yeah that looks really promising. Haven't done Django as my daily driver for a few years now, and I don't recall stumbling upon it back then!
Django getting background tasks built-in is going to be really nice. It sucked having to manage celery or similar alongside it.
> It's not like AI replaced anything you mentioned.

I mean it's true it hasn't replaced anything the OP mentioned, but it has definitely replaced parts of the compute that I would normally use for e.g. searching.

I could see stuff like this helping advanced dancers come up with new stuff or perhaps help some instructors.
Nor does it capture that you might be holding your hands in different ways, such as which side is rotated up.
Having danced for around a decade, I would say the hand positioning example is a bit reductive. The most obvious example is that there's only one variant of "both hands crossed over" - while it's true that the hands might only fit together one way, the things you can do with the hands depending on what arm is on top varies significantly.

Having said that I'm pretty excited about the topic and what the author can do with it.

I mean, maybe you have more background knowledge than what you're posting, but it doesn't seem to me that there's necessarily an especially strong link between your recreational cannabis usage and your testosterone levels. Particularly if you've been doing something for 8 years without any side-effects and then suddenly something drastic happens - it seems to me there are plenty of other potential explanations.

It's a nice series of stories, although I feel like they do go a bit off the deep end in some of the later installments - but the premise is very fun.
Re:Rkyv: A zero-copy deserialization framework for rust on Saturday January 13, 2024 @12:12PM (#38981995)
We use Rkyv heavily at Climatiq to embed already-parsed data into our binaries that we then serve on an edge network. The speed is great and for the happy path it works very nicely, and is extremely fast. However the fact there's a separate version of each struct does become a bit of a bother.

Yeah! No subtitle support though, unfortunately.
