> The shift is happening fast. It won't be measured in years, but weeks and months. By year's end everything will be different.

What are some real world examples of this that you have personally witnessed that makes you think this is happening so fast?

hosteur··on Show HN: PRQL in PostgreSQL
SQL is incompatible with many types of autocompletion. For example columns in a select statement are not known here you write FROM. This alone justifies PRQL in my opinion.

You cannot access the rt front page without circumventing the censorship. You may be tech savvy and able to circumvent it. But most people are not. Which is key. It is literally censored.

I think they mean mandatory CA

I am fascinated by this project.

hosteur··on RustPython
Oh yes! We use pypy for many batch jobs deployed in production.

We switched to pypy several years back and that allowed us to push a great deal more batch jobs through per window with zero code changes.

hosteur··on Ask HN: Self-hosted alternative to Apple Notes?
> I use Joplin, using the open source Joplin Server hosted on my nas in docker.

Interesting project. I will read up on it. From a first glance on joplinapp.org, it does not seem to mention any way to self-host it the backend.

Although, I did find some forum posts mentioning a joplin server pre-release. Is that what you're running?

Do you know if it is possible to host it natively without docker?
