AWS EC2 Image Builder is slower and comes with AWS bloat and you can't arbitrarily push to other registries like you can with --push using forja.

Show HN: Forja – Remote Docker Builders on AWS

Hello HN. I got sick of docker builds on my mac taking forever, so I built forja.Forja is an ephemeral Docker builder that runs entirely in your own AWS account. It spins up real EC2 instances for each build (`c7a` for AMD64, `c7g` for ARM), builds your image with BuildKit, pushes cache layers to S3, and then tears the machine down.Here’s how it works: - The CLI asks AWS for a fresh EC2...

Python is trickier because of the lack of strong typing support by default in Python. So we're left with projects using strict mypy or with very extensive test suites for validation.

It's possible, just probably not the next language to tackle. If you'd like Python support though, you can upvote this github issue: https://github.com/xeol-io/bumpgen/issues/61

Hey HN, we are building bumpgen (https://github.com/xeol-io/bumpgen/) to remove the toil of fixing breaking changes during version bumps. bumpgen bumps your npm package version then generates the fixes to potential breaking changes.There were some interesting challenges we encountered using an LLM to fix breaking changes:[1] Finding the breaking changes → know how is a dependency used through...

Re:EOL Explorer – Making 30k deprecated packages searchable on Tuesday January 30, 2024 @10:23AM (#39191143)
Hey everyone,

We cataloged more than 30,000+ deprecated packages from the major package registries and made it searchable.

Details:

- Top 10,000 most used npm packages

- Top 10,000 most used Maven packages. We consider a package deprecated if the source repository is archived, and a version has not been pushed after archive.

- All NuGet packages ever marked as deprecated on the registry

- In the case that a vendor has announced EOL/deprecation, like Vue or Bootstrap, we prefer that data over any we source directly from the registry.

Cheers, noqcks

How do you deal with data persistence for storing the documents/vectorDB inside a Nitro Enclave? I would assume that you as the SaaS vendor are unable to decrypt the sensitive documents inside the enclave or see a users chat history?

This entire blog post is rife with other small issues. AWS support is not a 10% minimum at all! Developer Support is 3%.
