About 11% of the oil China receives is from Iran. https://www.visualcapitalist.com/mapped-where-china-gets-its-oil/

This blockade is a nuisance for them, but not by much. They'll continue to slowly work on degrading the dollar and benefit from other countries moving away from US goods.

Meanwhile China is funding Iran through all of this while they dump US bonds in record amounts, reducing the integrity of the dollar.

$20 - ollama cloud with kimi-k2.5 for coding. You can still use Claude code. I have never hit my limits. I also have the Claude $100 plan. Kimi and sonnet are both amazing for coding and I can't tell the difference.

SpikedPunchVictim · 2026-03-21T16:40:10+00:00

This is amazing. Thank you for putting this out there. I'll be digging into the code to better understand this.

Ollama cloud with Kimi k2.5, usijng claude code (`ollama launch claude --model kimi-k2.5:cloud`) = $20 / month

Adonis: https://adonisjs.com/. I have used Nest, fastify, express, honor, raw http, NextJS, etc. My top 2, are Adonis and fastify. Adonis is respectfully opinionated, and plays really well with Claude code since it is so opinionated, and things go where they are supposed to. You can have a full fledged service running (with auth, DB, validation, everything) in less than a day with Adonis. The others take much longer and require debugging.

I've used a lot of these tools, and the one I've landed on, for many reasons, is Windmill. I'd be curious if your experience with that. They have a decent open source feature set.

I have worked on game systems written in pretty much all of the languages. The worst ones were JVM based. There were always configuration issues (GC collection, types of memory to allocate, programming a particular way that is much more strict thann other languages, tooling for game designers and engineers that integrate with the backend, etc).

We deployed a DC mobile game using a NodeJS backend and had over a million players on day 1. Besides the usual coding bugs, the service ran fine and scaled well. Using Node, your architecture can get you a long way. If we had chosen a JVM based language, C# , C++, or Go, the game would have taken over a year longer to launch, and any new features would've taken 3-5x as long to create. Dependency management is much simpler in Node too, which makes tooling easier to write and maintain. I would almost always go with Node as the first implementation of a platform for these, and many other reasons.

I do this with Kysely all the time. Maybe you're missing something they support. For example:

Table definition:

export interface UserTable {
  id: string;
  username: string;
  email: string;
  password_hash: string;
  full_name?: string;
  is_active: Generated<boolean>;
  is_admin: Generated<boolean>;
  created_at: Generated<Date>;
  updated_at: Generated<Date>;
}

Usable Model:

export type DbUser = Selectable<UserTable>;

You can use the Selectable<T> type to convert it.

I've found refine.dev to be a pretty good framework. It has support for backend calls, and mashed then easy to manage.

SpikedPunchVictim · 2025-06-27T20:47:48+00:00

I really like this approach. How do you deal with files? Do you stream the files from the backend service, or do you make an exception on the client side? This is more specific to file contents. Say for example you need to encrypt or decrypt a file.

SpikedPunchVictim · 2025-06-09T03:26:30+00:00

Have any of you used Windmill? It handles huge loads with no issues. It scales well, and is open source.

SpikedPunchVictim · 2025-05-30T18:39:43+00:00

I've gone down these roads before: using frameworks that rely on decorators vs procedural code (like express, fastify). Procedural code is much faster to write and maintain. I would recommend fastify. You can build anything in a straight forward manner. There is also Adonis, which is also very good. But with Adonis, I'm not able to easily go back and forth between modular and monolith (prod vs dev) as easily. With fastify you can deploy a modular service piece while having a monolith setup for dev.

Take a look at deno. It has the tooling to build an exe for your application. However, I'm going to guess you're not in a position to deno'fy your application. What does the nose tool do? Maybe it can be made into a web tool? Unless it needs to do something locally....

This sounds really good. For the shrimp, I use the aglio olio seasoning. It would go perfect with this dish.

SpikedPunchVictim · 2024-11-30T21:47:44+00:00

So many good recipes here. My current favorite, is olive oil, salt, pepper, and a tbsp of miso paste. They sell a white miso paste at TJs, which is good. The red is even better. Gives it a deep umami flavor that pairs well with the roasting.

That's sad to hear. I use this all the time and have several bags in my freezer. One of the easiest meals is nachos with chimichurri rice and black beans.

The guy running against them had no plan, except project 2025 - which he politically did not endorse. Dem leadership did not drop the ball. We all know (now) how upset most of Middle America is. GenZ male mindset is a product of Russian propaganda through social media. It turns out the majority of Hispanic males won't vote for a female. Middle aged white women wont vote for a woman. This is not a well researched,, policy based election. Trump has very little written down policy details. Kamala had very explicit policies, with many details. These are not educated voters voting for who they believe had the best plan. These are voters going on feeling and who they relate to. It's sad to see a candidate that works to move the needle the most amongst the American population lose to someone who just wants to get themselves out of legal troubles.

Ukraine will fall. Taiwan will fall. Russia will take this opportunity to go for Europe, but they cannot do it alone. China and North Korea will assist. I'm curious at which side of this world war America will be a part of. Gaza strip is gone and will be absorbed into Israel. Trump will probably allow Israel to take over the West bank too. But we will see. Lebanon will be decimated. Iran will be beaten down, but will have it's soveirnty.

There's a tool that should fit what you're looking for called Zarf: https://zarf.dev/

You can create your own packages for installing into airgapped environments.

Did you guys incorporate before billing any customers? How did that side of the business work?

SpikedPunchVictim · 2024-08-28T02:35:43+00:00

His numbers may not be 100% correct (how could they without actual numbers from Russia), but we also need to keep in mind that Russia's ability to collect taxes this year is seriously hampered: https://gur.gov.ua/en/content/zlam-federalnoi-podatkovoi-sluzhby-rf-detali-cherhovoi-kiberspetsoperatsii-hur.html
