yeswecatan··on Managing AI Coding Costs at Scale
Do you know they are using pi or are you inferring it?
yeswecatan··on More Tailscale tricks for your jailbroken Kindle
That's neat. What did you have claude do for you on it?
yeswecatan··on Kimi K3-256k
How are you handling subagents?
yeswecatan··on What ORMs have taught me: just learn SQL (2014)
This is one of the major drawbacks to ORMs imo (though it’s not necessarily the ORMs fault). People think domain and data models are the same but they most definitely are not.
yeswecatan··on Ask HN: What are you working on? (June 2026)
I really wish they could find a way to make Maker Nexus more affordable.
yeswecatan··on macOS Container Machines
How would I replace docker compose containing multiple services that communicate with each other with this? Seems cool for an individual service.
yeswecatan··on Anthropic confidentially submits draft S-1 to the SEC
What should we be looking for?
yeswecatan··on GitHub Copilot code review will start consuming GitHub Actions minutes
I assume because local models are nowhere near as good. Hoping I’m wrong!
yeswecatan··on Palantir Wants to Reinstate the Draft
The most recent episode of the podcast “Search Engine” explored the cost of war and pretty much said exactly what you did. Besides the obvious war is bad, it’s so unfortunate we are passing on the cost to future generations. And for what?
yeswecatan··on A standard protocol to handle and discard low-effort, AI-Generated pull requests
Good idea, though I'm not sure how to enforce it. You can ask an AI for that and then rewrite it in your own words.
yeswecatan··on Obsidian Sync now has a headless client
I'm having a hard time understanding when I would use this. Could someone provide some examples?
yeswecatan··on AWS multiple services outage in us-east-1
How do you handle replication lag for databases?
yeswecatan··on Delete tests
I find testing terminology very confusing and inconsistent. Personally, I prefer tests that cover multiple components. Is that an integration test because you test multiple components? What if you system is designed in such a way that these tests are _fast_ because the data access is abstracted away and you can use in memory repositories instead of hitting the database?
yeswecatan··on Plain – a web framework for building products with Python
While it's truly a great ongoing effort and I am grateful to all the contributors, it's not nearly complete. You may think you're using the correct type until, surprise, you are not.
yeswecatan··on The Pain That Is GitHub Actions
Oh how I wish engineering leadership would actually mandate certain things such as this.
yeswecatan··on The Pain That Is GitHub Actions
That requires Github Enterprise (if using GH, of course), no?
yeswecatan··on The Pain That Is GitHub Actions
Unfortunately people will use --no-verify to bypass hooks.
yeswecatan··on Upgrading Uber's MySQL Fleet
What is your use case?
yeswecatan··on Stripe's Monorepo Developer Environment
I came to ask the same thing. We use docker-compose to describe all our services which works fine.

Hi! I bring over a decade of experience as a software engineer. I spent a solid portion of that time as a backend engineer building out APIs in Django. In my current position, I have built upon those skills and acquired plenty of new ones as a platform engineer. A significant part of my role has involved evolving and optimizing our infrastructure (AWS) with a focus on cost savings and maintainability with improved Terraform practices. In addition, I have built and improved multiple internal libraries and services to make our engineers' lives easier. In my next role, I'm looking to leverage these skills and help advance a team to the next level.

yeswecatan··on We migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime
How did you go about stopping and restarting applications which reach out to the database? We have a number of tasks running in ECS which can take a minute to spin down and a few minutes to spin back up.
yeswecatan··on How to delete your data from data brokers
I've been hesitant to submit removal requests due to requirement of uploading a picture of your ID. How can I trust these shady companies won't use this irresponsibly?
