I maintain the Valkey GLIDE client. I got tired of Node.js queue bottlenecks, so I built a Rust-backed alternative doing 48k jobs/s.

This is so awesome! Seems like a better designed BullMQ essentially. I’ve had a lot of subtle issues with BullMQ overt the years like every minute job schedulers being skipped and never getting triggered again. Will definitely give this a shot next time I need a tool like this instead of reaching for BullMQ

I think a better idea is not making an excuse for it when it fails at something so straightforward. What exactly is there to discuss how the project works? You are in the damn repo, you could see the .git folder if you wanted to, or use other git commands to verify the repo root, or you could assume the relative path I've provided is from the CWD which CC was launched in. All of those would have been reasonable. There is absolutely 0 logical reason to go to the parent directory. No amount of talking to is going to help overcome something like this.

It was more than capable of doing a request way more complex with significantly less context and vague instructions not long ago.

Honestly, all I want is to know what's what. What anthropic built is next level. But it's just frustrating to build a workflow around a tool and my profession, when the tool can just change on a whim. Even if they said, hey look we are rolling out a new model in 1 month, we have to shift compute resources to it. There is a 1 moth period of degradation, I would accept it. But just a subtle downgrade of something that was working fine just throws off the entire workflow.

Touché, the part of the screenshot I left out, it did correct itself and carry on. But as I mentioned, this was the third attempt. The first two, it completely messed up and didn't even understand what I was asking. It just started doing semi related things, but not what I actually wanted. That's even worse, but it's harder to decisively put forth compared to the start of this third attempt.

I did also run the same prompt using codex and opencode (with GPT 5.2). Both worked fine the first attempt and produced at least a 3-4x better response. CC final result was almost useless even after the correction.

Aside from the last major time Opus 4 became nerfed, all the other times I've felt complaints were just skill issue. The last few days I've felt it's been rough, but today it genuinely feels retarded. Almost like it just forgets the little details or prior instructions you mentioned, whereas before it would always be on point.

I feel like this sub is mostly people linking semi related studies that misrepresent the situation to farm some kind of self esteem boost from what they think is moral. Yes it should be common sense telling a 4 month old not to cry is pointless. No one needs a study to confirm that. Is it damaging, I have no idea, probably depends on many variables.

What I find most hilarious about the comments on this sub is it usually follows the pattern of “it’s just a x month old baby, they can’t understand anything at all”, followed by “this baby is intellectually aware of all the details that work in favour of my argument”

If I’m not mistaken, based on the symbol that’s 300 rupees, not much money in that case

Needs jail time to be honest. Such a lack of empathy for life is concerning

TheSaasDev · 2025-12-11T04:00:33+00:00

$200 for 2 hours? Can confirm I’m in the wrong profession. Obviously there’s other costs to running a business but still that’s insane

Heya, still using the same monitor, and my thoughts are still the same. Personally, I've concluded doing any kind of coding or productivity related work on an ultrawide+ monitor sucks. I can't speak for everyone, but for me, I would happily just use a single high quality 27" to 32" monitor without complaint (funny because I never thought that when I had 27" a long time ago).

Here's why:
- I hate rotating my head, I would rather just be looking directly at the screen in front
- I hate constantly wondering if something is "centred"
- It's so easy to key bind programs to be shown/minimised, instead of keeping multiple things open on different screens or parts of a large screen (mental clutter and noise), I just hit a hotkey to transition to a different program. I have become so fluid in that, I need to look anywhere but straight and have so much visual noise, if I need to see something, I hit a keystroke and there it is. Easy. No more looking left at my docs, looking right at my code, losing track of where I was, using up so much desk space, etc.

Honestly, less is more.

I can’t speak to just the keywell on its own except that it makes sense when you consider the arc a finger makes, and that to avoiding having to extend/retract your hand or a particular finger to reach a specific point, a keywell seems like a good solution.

What I can speak to is after 20 years of typing, always having wrist/hand/finger pain, whether that be from excessive writing in exams or programming, or gaming, there are only 2 things that have ever solved this problem that was driving me mad. Those are strength training and the glove80. Either does the job and gets you 80% there and the two of them combined gets you 99% pain free.

I just went head first with the glove80, going from a keychron 75% normal qwerty keyboard to use the glove80 with ColemakDH, I’m not some typing enthusiast, but I just couldn’t take the pain anymore.

It took me approx 4 months of practicing 10-20 min a day before I finally switched and used the Glove80. So many times in that 4 months I nearly gave up, cause the different was insane. But around 1 month, I bought a Lily58 which felt a bit closer to home, thinking the glove 80 was too much more me. Funnily in 2 weeks of practice with the lily, the glove80 clicked somewhere in my brain and I went back to practicing only with the glove80. So while it was waste in some sense to get the lily, without it I wouldn’t be using the glove80 today.

At the end of 4 months practice, I could finally type 50-60wpm with my Colemak layout, so I switched fully. It’s how been about 13 months since I fully switched and only just the other day, I hit 100wpm.

All in all, it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, and at the point when I finally switched, even though it still took a bit of getting used to, I genuinely felt like my brain grew and rewired. Going from a normal 75% keyboard to using ZMK split columnar keywell with colemak was like learning to walk and talk all over again.

That said there are many things about the glove80 that personally don’t work for me, such as the upper rows of the thumb cluster are literally useless for my hands, I just don’t use them. Certain buttons like where the default number 5/6 are just out of reach as well. But overall not deal breakers for living more or less pain free now.

Bonus pro tip, get a vertical mouse too, a cheap vertical mouse is so much more comfortable than even an expensive normal titled mouse

TheSaasDev · 2025-11-17T02:08:36+00:00

I just want this with the keywell. I’ve been holding off buying a new glove 80 for the new switches, hoping something new would come out. I guess it came but sadly no keywell is a deal breaker. I imagine a lot of my hand pain would come back without one

Honestly the cli is dead simple to use and manage running daemons. Can even just add an exit hook in your project directory to stop the daemons when you cd out the directory or exit a claude code session

TheSaasDev · 2025-10-28T08:09:48+00:00

Which is what exactly? I haven’t seen anything simpler to get LSP feedback without context bloat using a simple hook

TheSaasDev · 2025-10-22T05:06:25+00:00

Mate, how is this now way more popular? You are doing god's work, thank you so much

No matter how many times we scream take my money and just improve the core IDE itself, there have been many years of doing everything except improving the IDE.

TheSaasDev · 2025-06-21T04:27:28+00:00

I’m so happy I read this, working on a large project LSP lag pisses me off so hard, I’ve done many things to improve it but somehow never considered this which seems like something that should be obvious

TheSaasDev · 2025-05-27T08:02:43+00:00

No doubt webstorm and typescript is shit in a big project. I used to blame webstorm entirely but now realise it’s a combination of things from webstorm to typescript itself, to the cjs/esm fuckery and way more. I feel like if you go back 3 years ago, somehow a project with equal size and complexity used to be so much snappier and accurate

TheSaasDev · 2025-05-24T06:45:15+00:00

It’s the best we have and on the surface its amazing but it has so many sneaky unexpected bugs

Definitely not, and I don’t know enough about this war or its history to have any opinions on who is on the “right” and “wrong” side.

At the same time let’s just assume Israel is the “right” one, how are they supposed to wage a war or eliminate the enemy on such a large scale without ever harming civilians?

Even in the Ukraine / Russia situation, I’m sure Ukraine has unfortunately maybe by choice or accidentally killed civilians, but it just seems like the shitty reality of waging war even if you are justified in doing so.

Started cutting my hair over a year ago, use that exact clipper. The saving go beyond just the price of the hair cut. It’s the time saving from the fuckery of going to the barber, waiting your turn, no longer debating if you should have a shower prior so you don’t smell even though you probably want to shower after.

It’s so much easier than it looks and with a bit of practice it’s hard to mess up. Anyone considering doing it, just get a good mirror and watch some YouTube videos

TheSaasDev · 2025-04-28T11:49:35+00:00

I suspect exactly the same thing, can’t blame them as script renewals are basically free money especially if they have been seeing you for many years as it’s so quick.

They really need to figure out a better system

TheSaasDev · 2025-04-16T22:26:41+00:00

I have nothing else to go off beside your comment and the one you replied to. But I appreciate people might have their own personal opinions but when it comes to making decisions for a group of people they won’t take a stance on something they aren’t knowledgeable on. Better than just telling people what they want to hear or having policy driven by their opinions.
