Re:Valve releases Team Fortress 2 game code on Wednesday February 19, 2025 @12:50AM (#43099007)

Wouldnt e-tag version numbers also work? Or just havkng .jsom with version metadata next to the db blob? No need to sync clocks. Just GET the small db-ver.json and compare version details?

One angle to these multipliers would be this: A generalist programmer can take other tasks of sw-engineering than just programming with the support of ChatGPT. Like DevOps, DBA and test-automation. For small team or company that is then actually saving or postponing FTE hires

Re:Launch HN: Moonrepo (YC W23) – Open-source build system on Tuesday February 21, 2023 @04:57PM (#34888109)
You should check git submodules out. Basically you could have your api-repo checkout certain commit from the spa-repo to a folder in the project root and reference the module reltive to that path.
Atleast under the coolios services tab there was the minio-service that has aws-s3 compatible blob filestorage api and a nice web-app ui. One could host the minio directly with docker too.
