IKEA is trash. Let’s not pretend otherwise.
eezing··on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Bay Model
This is a hidden gem in the Bay Area. Go check it out if you live near by.
eezing··on Railway Blocked by Google Cloud
“Deletion of private cloud subscription…”

Who deleted it?

An idempotency key enables exactly-once semantics in a distributed system.
eezing··on Appearing productive in the workplace
I had a feeling I wasn’t the only one witnessing this madness.
eezing··on Opus 4.7 to 4.6 Inflation is ~45%
Not sure if this equates to more spend. Smarter models make fewer mistakes and thus fewer round trips.
eezing··on EFF is leaving X
Elon is a grumpy old bastard now. That’s all he is, really.
eezing··on Xbox UI Portfolio Site
Awesome
eezing··on Luce: First Electric Ferrari

When was product and design never the bottleneck?

eezing··on Getting a Gemini API key is an exercise in frustration
It looks AI won’t replace software engineers after all.

With AI, this is about to get a whole lot worse.
eezing··on Wikipedia’s nonprofit status questioned by D.C. U.S. attorney
So don’t use Wikipedia then. Problem solved.
eezing··on Wikipedia’s nonprofit status questioned by D.C. U.S. attorney
Have you actually tried to tag, edit, or leave comments when you come across questionable content?

I’ve found that the system works pretty well. It’s not perfect, but I can’t think of a better solution.

eezing··on Dependency management fatigue, or why I ditched React for Go+HTMX+Templ
My favorite offenders are the CJS to ESM (only) conversions.
eezing··on Better Auth – The most comprehensive authentication library for TypeScript
This is actually very nice, thanks for posting.

Not sure this will save you time and money, but it is very comprehensive.

eezing··on Reflections on Palantir
It’s Salesforce v2. A ridiculously expensive proprietary “easy-to-build” application platform with an ecosystem of ridiculously expensive consultants.
eezing··on Show HN: I built the most over-engineered Deal With It emoji generator
Great way to promote yourself. Well done!
eezing··on How to succeed in MrBeast production (Leaked PDF)
Never really occurred to me why Mr. Beast content doesn’t appeal to me (nor have I thought about it much)… their sole purpose is CTR. Makes sense. Lame.
eezing··on Google's new pipe syntax in SQL
For autocomplete, FROM first makes a lot of sense. For readability, SELECT first makes more sense because the output is always at the top.

Got it in 11

Good for annotating js files here and there, but lousy dx.

Data import via customer self-service onboarding.
eezing··on Shapeshift: Semantically map JSON objects using key-level vector embeddings
My thinking as well.
eezing··on At 50 Years Old, Is SQL Becoming a Niche Skill?
NoSQL application databases still a thing?

No data warehouse?

From a language/interface standpoint, there is no alternative.

eezing··on Mouth-based touchpad enables people living with paralysis to use computers
I would think fewer moving parts is less complex. Considering it’s basically a trackpad, I doubt the hardware and software are bleeding edge.
