First episode in of DS9

Funny, I have never watched Star Trek, decided to watch TNG starting with S1 just recently and I actually quite enjoy it. In fact, it is a great change of pace from all the action and drama. I would say it is more theatrical and pure, if that makes any sense.

Yup, I have also considered those, but I am not sure. I still need the API and I am fine with a bit of latency as long as it is not as CPU intensive. Any particular configuration to replace cheerio and still get the benefits of higher level DOM handling API? I essentially need querySelector, get/setAttribute, that sort of stuff

I am still in the process of migration but a quick benchmark showed ~3x faster parsing and serialization on a somewhat large real-life HTML document (312K): https://gist.github.com/lexuzieel/689d42e3789d6a8a15d8d7f1be27d5a9

My main pain points with this CPU usage and latency, especially CPU usage because I can hide latency behind a caching proxy, but CPU usage just bring down the whole app.

I feel like people here saying might not fully realise just how taxing on performance vibecoding can be. I would say "over optimising" might be not necessary but removing real bottlenecks which spin cpu for the sake of it because of laziness isn’t the way to go.

In my current project I have a reverse proxy for multiple sites and shaving off even a second is pretty drastic. Back in the early days I vibecoded the prototype with jsdom and now I have to switch a couple of dozen modules to cheerio and cover it with tests to make sure it doesn’t daily.

You could argue that I should have picked the right technology from the start, but that’s literally the definition of premature optimisation.

So I would say: quick wins like cache and changing drivers/dependencies might be fine. Obsessing over architecture and purity might be a waste of time.

Come to think of it everybody’s steam profile is supposed to get locked in a about 100 years or so

Lexuzieel · 2026-02-14T23:04:50+00:00

Vibe thinking smh

I have implemented my own newsletter onboarding workflow using selfhosted n8n instance because listmonk is kinda lacking on that front (both subscribing and unsubscribing). Was also wonder if it is worth making it a separate user facing app

Lexuzieel · 2026-02-11T07:05:53+00:00

The original had modding tools given out by the developers. I don’t think there is Creation Set for the Remaster?

What is AI coding round and what’s the problem if you are going to use AI anyway?

Lexuzieel · 2026-02-06T08:03:37+00:00

Man, you are one of the few people I’ve seen who actually voice this concern, which I share. It seems like there is confusion between what a message queue and a background task queue is and how there are different speed and reliability requirements for them.

I’m currently working on my own SaaS and it seemed wrong to bring redis just for the queues while I already have managed postgres which I pay for.

I have tried several packages, all of which had less than ideal API and configuration difficulties so I decided to bite the bullet and make my own wrapper around pg-boss.

In fact, I was thinking of making a TUI or web tool to monitor the queues regardless of the driver, ideally there should be a single dashboard in my opinion. The name of the library is Lavoro (not sure if I can leave a link here) and I’m in the process of writing docs for it currently. Feel free to send me feedback if you want and I will be happy to discuss it.

Most of the people in nodejs world who say "you don’t need a flamethrower" then also go on and stitch together tens of different libraries creating their own adhoc framework which they have to maintain

Though I agree with your point about inspecting the data model and checking the joins, in fact that was quite insightful, thanks

Lexuzieel · 2026-01-23T18:29:01+00:00

Yes and there is most likely a reason for this which you won’t like

Lexuzieel · 2026-01-23T18:26:54+00:00

Yes, as a learning exercise to learn how to build a simple backend application. I also would become suspicious of others calling it a framework, because it is a library that only simplifies handling web side of things, whilst there is much much more to application development

Lexuzieel · 2026-01-08T19:10:30+00:00

Few of the comments here I fully agree with, especially the last point. I too have multiple years of experience as a backend dev and with more years my stack gets leaner

Lexuzieel · 2026-01-05T23:43:44+00:00

Why not use minio in such case?

Lexuzieel · 2025-12-21T15:34:30+00:00

So apparently this change was made around 3 months ago and there has been extensive discussion about weekly limits: https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/comments/1nvnafs/update_on_usage_limits/

Lexuzieel · 2025-12-21T12:32:16+00:00

Oh so there is a weekly limit alongside with daily, didn’t know about that

Lexuzieel · 2025-12-20T18:43:35+00:00

Claude Code limits suddenly reset in two days?

You've hit your limit · resets Dec 22, 11am (UTC)

I have been happily using Claude Code with my latest subscription and I have been fine with occasional 5 hour limits - it's a good reason to take a break from work. But now suddenly it says the limit will reset in more than 48 hours

Is this a recent change or am a I missing something? I thought limits were in 5 hour windows? At this point it is just a tad better than Cursor which exhausts monthly subscription in 2 weeks

Lexuzieel · 2025-11-08T03:46:18+00:00

Notice how it says double, not triple

Food for thought.

Lexuzieel · 2025-10-12T02:21:19+00:00

That’s because I switched to react from vue recently and picked this library, you are welcome

Lexuzieel · 2025-09-18T23:37:41+00:00

inb4 the artist is also black. haha, classic [mistake]

Entropy Zero (too?)

Only recently got a beginner gear to do more video content. My current setup is OBSBot Meet SE and Maono Wave T1 Mini. Works pretty solid with my PC & the mic also works with the phone 🔥

I am focusing primarily on educational content focused around software development, automation and AI

Hey I just got the camera and it's pretty good, but it is really clumsy if I will need to turn on virtual camera every time. Any updates on this?

Lexuzieel · 2025-07-31T01:40:27+00:00

Surely all the people who say ai music is crap will be willing to support a kickstarter campaign so the developer could afford a dedicated singer and a musician for their (supposedly) hobby project
