In my minds eye I've been yearning to see an IDE that focuses on a zoomable interface.

This looks like a good start.

Get back to me when the tech gets shrunk down to a normal pair of glasses I can use as every day eyewear.

There's some really great story telling found in some K and C dramas that you just don't find in western media.

Interesting and varied modern story telling in KDramas and fantastic historical story telling in CDramas.

There's also quite a bit of it to consume from over the years on alternative platforms like Viki.

Sadly most of the "best" can't be found on Netflix so most people just don't have any idea about it.

This is meaningless.

"Good guys follow rules, bad guys don't."

As if getting the infrastructure to privately build your own model is challenging for people that have the capital to spend on such projects.

Meh. Just like anything else on the internet. Value can be derived if the person using it has both critical thinking as well as the capacity to spot the flaws or falsehoods.

In this sense it's literally no worse than reading random "news" articles and somehow taking it all as fact at face value.

If you fall into the trap of taking everything ChatGPT tells you as gospel you've already lost.

As for the so called false promise, this is old man yells at clouds stuff.

Ataraxy commented on Show HN: Open-source OAuth service for 40+ APIs   nango.dev... · Posted by u/rguldener

One thing I always wished Pizzly would have added was regular api key based authentication alongside oauth.

Make it suitable for all integration authentication possibilities.

Ataraxy commented on Show HN: We built a developer-first open-source Zapier alternative   trigger.dev... · Posted by u/eallam

This looks great. I'll have to play around with it.

Related, we built a developer oriented Zapier clone for event scale automations awhile back for our internal product. We've since pivoted and have been debating on potentially open sourcing the engine as well.

We built ours using Rust with a DSL for all the triggers, actions, and action inputs/outputs. The actions themselves are defined as APIs, which makes it easy to add functionality in any language. Most of our actions have been built in Typescript.

Is there interest from anyone in potentially using it?

I'm always interested in seeing alternative solutions to this problem.

So I'm not an expert, but for simplistic use cases I merely make use of https://github.com/oguimbal/pg-mem

It's a lot faster and easier than dealing with containers and the like.

Neon CEO here.

There are a number of ideas in the database space that the industry is adopting across the board:

- Separation of storage and compute (Neon, AlloyDB, Aurora). Every cloud database should built one. It's a big undertaking, but benefits are undeniable.

- Good query processor for analytics (Snowflake, Velox, Singlestore)

- Open source. Especially in OLTP open source == trust

- HTAP. Can run mixed workload (Singlestore, Unistore): both OLTP (apps) and OLAP (reporting). This has always been a dream, but we still live in the world of dedicated systems: E.g. Snowflake and Postgres.

- Shared nothing sharding (Vitess). This is the most controversial as you lose compatibility with the mothership (MySQL for Vitess). So it's unclear this will be the dominant architecture in the future. I think the world may get to "dynamic sharding" where storage stays separate and compute can be multinode and the user can easily and instantly change the number of nodes.

I actually look forward to Neon but won't actually use it for real until pricing becomes available.
