I personally believe it’s lack of good engineering leadership and it’s only getting worse at this point. I’ve experienced a fair share of technical leaders without enough technical background and/or experience - people/leadership skills is equally important imho, but people with both are hard to find (scarce resource) and it seems like it’s often the tech side that gets compromised.
I think one of the reasons is the IT industry is simply growing too fast, meaning we have a very small pool of people with many years of experience and a very large pool of people with less experience (compared to other industries). But we do need technical leaders, hence the compromise (need?) to pick people with less experience. Unfortunately.

I’ve done something like this, but also used the location of ISS to figure out which country was “getting pissed on the most” by the astronauts.
I’m fairly sure I got a working script somewhere for the data, but unfortunately never got around to create a leaderboard website for it :/
(haven’t tried them though)
Read your blog/article about the badge project yesterday and it was such a good read, even for a not-much-of-a-hardware-guy like me.
Just try and cold-start your database and run a fairly large select twice.
People (or power users at least) tend to remember incidents like that. I don’t think it’s entirely “just because LLM’s”.

..but even so, it’s still a valid concern.
I’ve been using it since v1, it’s extremely configurable, very very snappy and doesn’t suffer from the common AI-problems, that seems to be forced into searches everywhere these days.

imho, you are one of the main reasons why HN keeps being a high quality tech forum (which is extremely rare these days on the Internet) - so thx dang!
Does exactly what it says and gets bonus points due to self-hosted or as-a-service.
Every single answer goes straight to name dropping various specific techs/tools and I don’t doubt it really is the most simple way for each poster. But I think a much better answer, would be a bunch of questions that dig into what kind of problem you are trying to solve, what are the circumstances, skillset, limitations, budget, is it 1 tiny private app for fun or a couple of apps your team or even company depends on etc.
Because it depends on the specifics in _your_ situation and jumping straight to _a_ solution, without understanding _your_ problem, is imho part of the over-complexity-problem in our industry.
Maybe just didn’t want to boot on faulty kernel at all, now that the risk of permanently damaging the display was known.
