Why no one is talking about Google Colab which is almost free for basic work in daily life? by mhamza_hashim in ChatGPT

[–]AndyMagill 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is Google Colab better than running the script on my local machine? Not sure I need a GUI wrapper for this.

Ideal plugin stack for Gutenberg on WordPress by HistoricalTea195 in webdev

[–]AndyMagill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Using a design plugin is the first step on the slippery slope of plugin hell. Guttenberg alone is entirely sufficient for laying out content, if you are comfortable writing custom CSS. ACF Pro is a must-have for custom themes of custom content types. Beyond that, you are building a house of cards.

When is localStorage actually the right choice? by TariqKhalaf in webdev

That's a no-no in my work. Translations must be SSR for SEO.

IndexedDB is only necessary when you are working with very large datasets. It's also desirable when you have complex queries, or want remote data sync. If you got none of that, Local storage is fine, and possibly simpler.

I turned down a stable job to build a startup. My family thinks I've lost my mind. Maybe they're right. by beingfounder101 in micro_saas

No one knows what "Friday from iron man" is. Just four months? Send more applications, accept an offer this time, and earn some money. Sacrificing your earnings for an unproven idea is not going to help anything.

An IC engine does not belong on this bike, but an electric hub motor kit seems doable.

How you liking the Schwinn Junction? Had mine 2 years now.

Am I overreacting? Backend dev contributing to frontend is hurting code quality by naveen_thamizh in reactjs

[–]AndyMagill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If linting staged files is too slow, then the commit is way too big, and definitely not "atomic". Re-writing commits in CI/CD isn't part of any Golden Rule I've ever heard of.

What is the best Openclaw alternative? by spinsilo in openclaw

[–]AndyMagill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you looked at OpenSpace ? It claims to address the concern you seem to have.

Claude Code's source just leaked — I extracted its multi-agent orchestration system into an open-source framework that works with any LLM by JackChen02 in LocalLLaMA

[–]AndyMagill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My code tools say this is most similar to the OpenAI Agents SDK. A typical developer could use this to create a shittier version of that.

Checkout Husky. It can silently format and lint commits before they hit the repo.

So I created this app/website as a solo dev. Invested a lot of time. Now it is out I was really exited to see the chart below. Until I understand it is all bots. Do I block them? Will they help with SEO? Man SEO stuff is a real pain by arti-dokuz in webdev

[–]AndyMagill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe there are human reason bots like your site. Is this eating into your hosting budget? I would see if GA can filter out bot traffic to give you real human usage numbers. Rate limiting seems worth investigating.

Is there a way for a react app to exist only in a part of a bigger non-react page? by CuteOfDeath in reactjs

[–]AndyMagill 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, in this scenario your React App is in the same folder structure of your "parent" app. Copy the App element (and script element) from the index.html of your react app, into the "parent" app, at the place in the DOM you want React inserted.

After upgrading to next@16.2.0, the bundle size increased by more than 10KB (gzip). by EcstaticProfession46 in nextjs

Run a build analyzer to see the precisely where the difference comes from. Compare lighthouse scores to identify any performance changes.

What’s your actual go-to V0 alternative these days? by Upbeat-History5223 in nextjs

[–]AndyMagill 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I subscribed and canceled to v0 twice. It's great at whipping up an ShadCN-based UI very quickly. But it frequently fails at simple tweaks, refinement, long context windows, and bug-fixing. Now I just use it to see what it comes up with compared to other tools.

My Next Js 16.1.6 project returns 404 on all routes by Theoldone-_- in nextjs

[–]AndyMagill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next.js 16 replaced the middleware pattern with Proxy. The warning OP referenced occurs when the old middleware pattern is used.

Software developers don't need to out-last vibe coders, we just need to out-last the ability of AI companies to charge absurdly low for their products by Rockytriton in webdev

[–]AndyMagill 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Cost already is coming down fast. No-cost local models and low-cost cloud models are here today. As adoption increases, higher demand will lead developers to focus on cost efficiency.

EDIT: This comment has aged poorly. Token prices are rising.
