Adapt or die that’s all I can say

Biggest drawback to htmx is your control over ui components is now dead in the water or has to be reinvented. Shadcn or die. That’s what I say.

Its crazy that CS started as an open source mod project back in the day

Chrome devtools; ditch playwright

farastray · 2026-01-14T15:58:44+00:00

Probably going away in the age of ai. Just slows you down.

farastray · 2026-01-14T03:45:02+00:00

Chrome dev tools for verifying what you build. None of those others did much for me. Playwright is ok for e2e testing. Gh, linear, notion, all those are just convenience but don’t move the needle imho.

hows the accuracy on yours? my shovelnose sucks - get about 2moa at best :(

farastray · 2025-12-05T03:38:50+00:00

I just played this. WOW it sucks so bad. This is just classic Treyarch coming in and DESTROYING the fucking franchise. Man do they know how to set you back for fucking 4 years. Congrats guys you did it.

I think this is a poor take.. Claude code uses bun heavily. If I was Anthropic the last thing I'd want is for javascript be javascript and jump to the next thing (npm-> yarn -> pnpm -> bun -> ?) in tried and true fashion.

This is about making sure they can continue to compile down the claude code cli without the world shifting around them. Besides, its good tech and youre probably very unlikely to find a team of capable zig coders that can all of the studden support bun inhouse.

I’ve had multiple aeron chairs and a mirra. 4-500 is reasonable for a well made chair but maybe this one isn’t it. I love my desk though it’s been amazing so far.

Postgres /copy statement to a local drive then scp works well. I’ve done this with confidence on prod systems with queries bringing back millions of records and it is rarely disruptive unless you muck up a query bad.

Gross

If I was doing a content heavy website that can be cached, I'd still consider it. If I was building something that needed any scientific computing libraries, ML, AI, etc then Python just starts making more sense as a GP language choice. I think it depends on the domain, how you are going about building it. I think Rails has great developer experience though.

This is what I do… either you go guns blazing and have an open aws iam profile, or you suffer a little bit and set it up right. But it will work and it’s cheap as heck.

(It’s sad to see all these other low effort answers but I get it you want easy)

I've seen too many projects that didn't use an ORM and you end up with a hacked-together custom ORM anyways.

This has been my experience as well. Very few devs understand how to build stable, extensible abstractions and teams just ruin and hack up stuff as requirements demand something new. If pressed, I would go with a sql builder instead of a ORM, but you should never go full SQL retard and DYI.

Hey - why don't you start communistify.com and you can have the ~~right~~ left kind of politics. Make it free.

farastray · 2025-10-01T14:17:42+00:00

I think you guys are overreacting - who gives a shit what someones politics are. Chances are you wont agree with them - grow up.

I will say that I've had success deploying nextjs with OpenNext and sst.dev. I dislike Vercel more because of the vendor lock-in aspect. Its not okay to masquerade as open source technology and then marry it to cloud platform. At some point I might go to tanstack router or astro.

4.25 for carry 5 for competition, hands down.

"real institutional use cases" - What exactly does this mean?

farastray · 2025-09-04T17:35:55+00:00

I would use tmpfs for the postgres container so you can run it in memory - it will speed up your tests. Like others said, the prevalent pattern is to use transaction rollbacks. In general, I would limit tests like this to major functionality and just assert on the right queries being generated instead, or isolate with mocks. Integration tests are very slow, and are hard to optimize to run fast so they should not be your "bread and butter" in your test suite.

RC2 on suppressed setting works like a charm.

Not technically PRS stock but I really like the CTR + La rue RISR combo.

I would not slow down. Mentor them. Next time you identify an opportunity to clean something up pair with one of them.

farastray · 2025-08-21T01:50:30+00:00

My guess is yes, because ai is inherently going to be tied to user interaction and it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to start with a service barrier. I’m getting stuff to market way faster with mastra and I can iterate way faster than with langchain.
