@ImNotAV1rus yes please

I'm giving 12 people lifetime access to HabitScaler, for free Not a marketing move. Google won't let me launch until 12 people test it for 14 days, and I'm starting from 0 😅 Currently available only on Android. iOS will be available later First 12 to reply, it's yours 👇

we've released a CRDT extension for Postgres (experimental and open source) why? A CRDT is a special data type used for collaboration - think of a Google Doc. The changes are merged even as people are typing simultaneously these CRDTs are then serialized on a server and then stored in a database. with a Postgres extension, we give the database a more "native" experience - they can be merged on the database, indexed, and searched. In the future you should be able to do something like this: create table blog_posts ( id uuid primary key, title text, body crdt default '{}' ); then you can post the changes to the database and it will merge automatically (rather than overwriting eachother's changes) you can use websockets (like our Realtime server) for very rapid changes between users, batching the changes to your database

this is a fascinating approach to AI tools @josevalim : a chat interface, running in your browser, so it can leverage all the browser tools/telemetry it hooks into your dev server, so it has deep integration with your framework + logs + code

@zivergetech @alvinalexander wow that is amazing. each course has 30+ videos!

We've finally uploaded all ZIO courses of the brilliant @alvinalexander on our YouTube Channel 💪 Check out the courses available: ➡️ Introduction to Scala 3 ➡️ Advanced Scala 3 ➡️ Introduction to Functional Programming ➡️ Functional Programming in Depth ➡️ Functional Programming with ZIO ➡️ ZIO HTTP + Caliban ➡️ ZIO Streams ➡️ ZIO Kafka Time for a #Scala spooky, weekend binge: @Ziverge/playlists" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@Ziverge/playl…

i decided to try GHoShtTTy instead of warp for like 1 minute ... no search, no colored tabs, no renaming tabs? straight to the trash even before i find out what other terminal features are missing. warp CLEARS

@rockthejvm Haskell

What programming language or library made you smarter as an engineer overall?

Episode 107: Language Design Deep Dive with @josevalim! 🎉 I tried something different in this episode: we were both using @zeddotdev to write example code in realtime in shared buffers, Google Docs-style, as we talked about language design. It was really fun!

@SamRose nice. yeah all good. even elixir libraries like Nx are using polars (also rust based).

@cchalc I'll check out Rust and DataFusion too. Thanks!

Getting back into learning Spark/Scala/Iceberg Set up a simple project with nix/flake, and it can be built and run with `nix run github:samrose/iceberg-flake#spark-app` Will create iceberg tables, and query them with scala, in a tmp dir

@josevalim @bill_boz same. pls share rules file

@bill_boz Yes, I ask AI to do this in my personal rules file :)

Here is an idea I am trying out: when vibe-coding a feature, ask AI to include the original prompt (and/or a summary of what was asked) in the commit message / pull request description. Anyone has tried this already? Good or bad idea?

.@AnthropicAI will support stateless remote MCP servers with “just HTTP” as transport. We’re quite excited about this! So we gave a “lightning talk” at an MCP meetup hosted by @paulgb @CloudflareDev yesterday.

@grhmc I used to work for a company that made an internal clone of source fourge for us to use. pretty funny to think back

Just thinking about how back in the day you had to **request** and **justify** a project to get on SourceForge.

I am reading about Conflict-free Replicated Data Types (CRDT). And I came across these fantastic implementations by Evan Wallace! It's interesting to see how real-world collaborative applications work with the help of these data structures and algorithms! Links in 🧵

@louispilfold could this be what you want - double-zero.cloud tag line is own your email..

OK google are annoying the heck out of me. What're the best ways to do a self-hosted calendar

@rawkode I have been using himitsu (sr.ht/~sircmpwn/himi…) and impressed with its use and simplicity. written with the Hare programming language.

I think I'm going to write my own password manager... Anyone want to help?

@thorstenball @theprincessxena is bringing a lot of comedy to @flydotio .. so many references to 'capitalism objects'

What's the software company with the most humor?

@chiroptical what do you think compared to elixir and erlang?

Finally an easy instance github.com/chiroptical/gl…

@chiroptical preference for employees or moving the way down the wait-list ?

I am so glad I am switching from my current bank. I initiated a transfer on 05/29 and it won't be delivered until 06/03. That is 7 days that my money is in limbo. Unacceptable. See my profile for who I am switching to.

@PJUllrich vector search for enterprise intranet

@SamRose @zmzlois @JuliaLanguage yeah. just some general open source and available model to download and use vs using a service.

@zmzlois @cchalc @JuliaLanguage x.com/samrose/status…

Why should I not just use Julia lang fluxml tokenize text and compute vector embeddings instead of OpenAI? I don’t know much about OpenAI vs * so trying to understand
