yes. less stable. more hallucinations
Doesn’t that defeat the purpose? You want to control it from outside of the sandbox, not to give agent escape hatch from sandbox

Nats is getting there, but not yet.

Redis is still much more powerful: lists, sorted sets and bazillion of other data structures

It’s usually a question of “who are your users?”

As long as you consider developers of derived software to be your users — permissive makes most sense.

But if you consider end-users of software it’s definitely copyleft.

Re:Web Translator API on Wednesday June 25, 2025 @09:41AM (#44377243)
So, the browsers have to provide some means for choosing the desired translation engine (add-on API maybe?) and this is a standard API which all of the providers should implement.

right?

> Usually new data is generated regularly

This part was not obvious. In a lot of cases geodata is mostly stable and reads/searches dominate over appends. And that’s why we keep this in DB (usually postgis, yes).

So DuckDB is optimised for very different use case and it is not always obvious when it’s mentioned

But LLMs are not reliable enough, so you can not actually expect “specificity”
Re:Jujutsu: Different Approach to Versioning on Sunday April 20, 2025 @04:51AM (#43742504)
Well, jj is actually very nice in this regard, because:

1. it works on top of git — you keep using all the same infrastructure (GitHub, etc.) 2. in your local repositories you still have access to git-tools, as jj maintains git and its own states in sync.

After all of these months with jj I still find myself using GitUp when I need to review a long chain of commits or do some quick repo-archeology. And, from time to time, I even use Idea's merge tools because their "magic wand" saves a lot of time.

I mentioned this in the first part of series

Re:Ferron – a fast, memory-safe web server written in Rust on Saturday April 05, 2025 @03:53AM (#43591752)
Important part of caddy’s configuration are their defaults. For example TLS and automatic certificates are on by default. It covers the most useful use case by default.

Ferron is different.

Is that a choice or just something you didn’t work on yet?

It’s interesting that my default prompt is exactly the opposite one: “do not write the code unless I ask for it specifically”. I like to use LLMs as a discussion partner, but writing code is trivial after a good discussion and I can do that myself

yes. https://github.com/serde-rs/json

> Can you work well with a rust application that interacts with react?

can you write an API-server in Rust? sure. or what do you mean?

Because learning improves your internal LLM which allows you to creatively solve tasks without using external ones. Additionally it is possible to fine tune your internal LLM for the tasks useful for your specific interests, the fun stuff. And external llms are too generalised

Re:Trying to Recreate iOS on the Web on Wednesday December 18, 2024 @08:41AM (#42450340)
It’s usually the difference between having a low-level api and high-level api. iOS gives a lot “for free”.

Creating stuff from scratch is not a fun experience

Re:How Discord stores trillions of messages on Sunday September 29, 2024 @09:23AM (#41687218)
But logs are stored on IRC as well. It’s not a part of standard protocol, but a lot of ir c-servers can do that automatically and there are boys which do that not to mention personal archives. The difference is that end-users don’t have easy access to this logs. And on discord they do (because it is a part of protocol)

But that’s a good thing. Sane state would be synced to disk and any successful bitflip will halt a system telling you that something bad is going on. It would be “catastrophic” for runtime but not for the data
Only if the entity who published the content does not oppose. And then it doesn’t have to go to the court. But if they oppose, the content should stay online until the court decision
No one is supposed to. It goes like this: 1. DMCA request (take them down, they use our copyrighted stuff!), 2. opposition (no, we do not agree! Do not take us down), 3. the process with lawyers and judges starts

An expectation is that “wrongdoers” just do not bother to oppose and everything works faster.

Then there are corporate policies which make this weirder (like YouTube who says: “if people send too many dmca request towards you, we chose not to see you as a customer”. But this has nothing to do with law)

But… WHY is it wobbly? Is there a particle which represents this wobbliness? :)
