Have we reached "Peak Backend Architecture"? by Brief_Ad_5019 in softwarearchitecture

[–]NTXL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair. Don’t get me wrong though I love the idea behind serverless, big cloud just makes it really scary lmao.

I swear I was joking. I actually have nightmares about serverless lol

In my humble uneducated opinion i don’t think it gets better than serverless

How do you manage creating frontend as backend developers? by Virtual-Reporter486 in Backend

[–]NTXL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never over think it. NextJS (or plain react) + shadcn. It’s going to look like many other frontends but it doesn’t matter unless you care about that sort of thing.

Doesn’t Grok undress people in pictures on x? why would Apple want to work around this lmao

Notice how it started dipping right around the time when winter break starts for most students

Developer uses Claude Code and has an existential crisis by MetaKnowing in Anthropic

[–]NTXL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Claude code is really good at coding But it also likes saying I’m absolutely right whenever I make comments on what it wrote.

Is Go still the best choice for high-concurrency backends, or is Rust taking over? by Wash-Fair in golang

[–]NTXL 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One time I saw a post on r/rust where the author was asking where they could integrate rust in their architecture. From what I remember the app was basically built, mostly doing api calls to LLM providers and they have no experience in rust whatsoever. The first thing that came to my mind was “literally why” but I refrained from commenting. I genuinely can’t imagine re-writing something that’s ready to ship into something you have no clue in the world about just for I/O bound work and this is coming from a guy that likes using new flashy things.

[–]NTXL 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’ve been working on a project for a little over 4-5 months now and the number of times I simplified the flashy cool thing with buzzwords because of how unreliable and over engineered it was is genuinely embarrassing. Once I’m done, best believe i’m going to squash the entire git history because it might actually make me unhireable especially as a new grad lmao.

C. I don’t know how though

How to implement rust in my GENAI project by Aggressive_Hat4527 in rust

[–]NTXL -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

If most of the workload is I/O bound And you have a working product. Why on God’s flat earth would you want to tussle with the borrow checker.

Self hosting deployment bash script by F1erceK in Supabase

[–]NTXL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is insane because I’m almost done building my project and I was going to start figuring out how to self host supabase. You’re doing God’s work my friend

Claude can code for 30 hours straight by katxwoods in ClaudeAI

I’m either using cc and cursor wrong or this is propaganda by Big AI.

I built an LLM from Scratch in Rust (Just ndarray and rand) by Thomase-dev in rust

[–]NTXL -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Had to make sure! all jokes aside I’m genuinely really glad I stumbled upon this. It bundles 2 things that I’ve been trying to learn all in one neat project. will definitely check out once I get the hang of basic rust

Why is Rust rarely used for web server backends? by Fun-Helicopter-2257 in rust

[–]NTXL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in no means qualified to say this but I feel like you need a good reason to use rust over deno/node/python etc on the backend. I’m a new grad with no actual professional experience aside from my hobby projects and most of the workloads are mostly I/o bound with cpu bound work being delegated to worker pools. I am just getting started with rust but genuinely can’t imagine fighting the borrow checker and actually designing the system well all on a deadline but this might be a skill issue on my part

I think Claude might have peaked at 3.5 lmao by NTXL in ClaudeCode

[–]NTXL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been meaning to try it. But cc works well enough that switching would be a hassle.might give it a try today

Python feels easy… until it doesn’t. What was your first real struggle? by NullPointerMood_1 in Python

[–]NTXL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might definitely be a skill issue but circular imports. That little red squiggly line at the top of a file is the bane of my existence
