bebop··on NewOS (2005)
Haiku-os originally used NewOS as the basis for its kernel. NewOS as far as I know has not received updates in many years and is in archive mode.
bebop··on Airbyte API & Terraform Provider – available in open source
Thank you for the feedback. Custom connectors are now available in Cloud! We are also actively working on improving all the points you raised, speed and stability in particular. A lot of this work is very much in the guts of the platform and does not often make for particularly flashy blog posts.

One more feature that I think is really interesting is the Connector Builder, which is a no code solution that works for many different API use cases. We at Airbyte hope that this makes it easier for folks to build out the custom connectors they might need.

bebop··on Ask HN: Anyone else notice that HN isn’t full of JavaScript frameworks lately?
A point of clarification: angularjs is officially deprecated. Angular is very much still being developed and used for new projects.

Was this comment satire?
bebop··on OpenAPI v4 (aka Moonwalk) Proposal
We at Airbyte are happy users of the speakeasy platform. The CLI generator is easy to get started with and generate nice api clients that are constantly getting better. Their api developer platform does a great job of managing new client builds and deploys to the package repositories as well. Super please with the experience so far.

You can get them with a radio built in.
bebop··on Social media can be a ‘profound risk’ to youth, surgeon general warns
Some parents in our social circle have been getting their kids smart watches. This allows talk to text and phone calls, but pretty much no internet. These devices are also good for parental controls like allow listing phone numbers (first thing our friends son did was make crank calls :)
bebop··on Vanilla OS 2.0 Orchid base is changing from Ubuntu to Debian
I would suggest looking into fedora workstation. I switched from Ubuntu around fedora 35 and have not looked back. Stock gnome, integrates into flathub easily. Dnf and apt are similar enough.
bebop··on Cedar is an open source policy language and evaluation engine
The company announcement was posted last week and also has some discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35890784
bebop··on Why is OAuth still hard in 2023?
If you want to read the rfc’s I had chatgpt explain the parts of the authorization code flow and link where in the rfc’s the parts are defined.

bebop··on Keycloak with PostgreSQL on Kubernetes
Super roughly, but you might be able to implement an Authentication SPI[0] and wire that into an Authorization Code flow.

bebop··on I did Advent of Code on a Playstation
A PS1 or PSX would be helpful in the title. I too expected a retro game implementation. PS4 and Dreams is indeed, also very cool though.
bebop··on US navy released worst rust photo to date
Short answer: Yes.

I can speak to my experience in Hawaii (that is the only place on the list I have lived). There is a significant and vocal minority of Native Hawaiians (and supporters) that would very much like to have their country restored. The Kingdom of Hawaii was illegally overthrown and the US apologized for its direct involvement in the overthrow: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/STATUTE-107/pdf/STATUTE-....

To the point of preference of staying a part of the United States, the majority in all of the Territories (and the State of Hawaii), I assume, would prefer to remain in the United States, yes. However, that is a disingenuous question. The most recent territories have been a part of the United States for almost 100 years, that is, several generations. What else would these populations be in favor of? Indeed, the people of Hawaii, given a choice in 1875, would have preferred the reinstatement of the Kingdom of Hawaii.

Tell that to: Hawaii, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, cnmi, the U.S. Virgin Islands. Seems like the narrative of not being an empire might be a bit of a myth in practice.
bebop··on Show HN: Airbyte, data integration platform with 300+ open-source connectors
Thanks for the feedback and we (Airbyte) are actively working on IaC solutions. We are publishing a Public API in 2023 [0]. We are working on an official Terraform provider built on that API, as well as, language specific SDKs. We hope to have these tools ready in 2023 as well.

bebop··on Ask HN: How do startups/lean teams successfully handle mat/pat leave?
I cannot speak to how you live your life, but I find myself very invested in my job. This is in general a good thing (I think) as it provides me the mental state to try and do the best job that I can as working hard is easy. The question you have posed leads me to believe you may feel similarly.

That said, my two boys (5 months, 6 years) are the most important thing in my life (along with my wife of course). My second son is 5 months old now and I just took 3 months off to care for him. I wish I had more time, 2 years might be enough. When my first son was born I only took two weeks of vacation, which was not even close to enough. It is something I still regret.

While I do not like to give parenting advice, I can say with certainty, you should take as much time as you possibly can. Don't think about work, don't look at work, try not to worry about work, it will be there when you return. As a mother, spend time to recover physically. No matter how the child is born, the process is very physically taxing and your body will change a lot in the following weeks/months. Make sure you are keeping an eye on your mental health, postpartum depression is not something to take lightly. Most important, try to relax (it is hard) and just love your child. The first months are wild.

bebop··on $5.6B cloud company Fivetran acquired its way to survival
Airbyte has an interesting product worth checking out. Open source, also has a saas offering.
bebop··on Productivity porn
I think it is pretty common in places where the mid day sun makes working difficult and dangerous.
bebop··on My Mega65 has arrived
Hardware emulation can make the timings between multiple chips more accurate as processes actually can be done in parallel and in sync with a shared clock. This is harder to get perfect with software emulation. In theory.

bebop··on Ken and Roberta Williams Working on Colossal Cave Adventure Remake for VR and PC
Off topic, but I was just watching an interview with those two about some of the games that they developed at Sierra: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAemLilaNjk
bebop··on Ask HN: How to learn about text editor architectures and implementations?
Ewig is an interesting implementation using immutable data structures. https://github.com/arximboldi/ewig Very proof of concept, tries to be a little emacs like. Might be worth checking out.
bebop··on Bevy game engine 0.6
I think there is a mistake when calling the setup_camera function in main. You call setup not setup_function, which I think is incorrect. Thanks for writing that up! Great article.
bebop··on My progress in porting Wine
I bought a cheap lenovo “workstation” ~400 usd mostly to run haiku. Laptops tend to be a little more difficult as they tend towards more “exotic” hardware.
bebop··on Don't Waste the Good Days
Thank you so much for including Pedro Pietri’s poem! I have not heard that poem for 15+ years and it brought back some wonderful nostalgia from my teenage years!
bebop··on Don't Waste the Good Days
Stay safe out there.
bebop··on Ask HN: What do you read for general knowledge?
I got a subscription to Harpers and it has been a nice addition to hacker news and industry books.
bebop··on Things I learned from building a production database
Thanks, I had never heard this term until I started working at my current employer. It seems like bay area lingo is assumed to be understood by everyone, even though it may not be used in the industry as widely as some folks assume.
bebop··on Ask HN: What extensions/packs of VS Code are must for web/developers to install?
+1 for gitlens. I often use jetbrains for development work but fire up vs code with gitlens for tricky merge conflicts or a deep dive with blame.
