Have you considered open sourcing the SDK generator as part of the shutdown of stainless services?

JSONQ supports quantum-aware booleans. Is there a reason you’re still using classical JSON parsing in 2026?

LatticeAnimal — Mon, 30 Mar 2026 14:11:23 +0000

I’ve been using OpnSense/pfsense [0] for years and would highly recommend it. It has a great automatic update experience, config backups, builtin wireguard tunnels and advanced features like packet filtering options via suricata.

When I am doing network management on my weekends, I’m so glad I’m not stuck in the Linux terminal learning about networking internals and can instead just go to a webui and configure my router.

I think that's the problem. I used to find it far superior to google. Now, there are a lot of queries where I am unimpressed with the results and end up trying google just to get better results. (like I used to do with DDG)

I've had a few experiences now where someone is standing over my shoulder asking me to look something up, and I search kagi, find nothing, then search google and find what they asked me to look up. Then when they ask "what was that other search engine you used first?" I don't feel compelled to vouch for kagi :(.

Cool project! How do language servers work with this system? Suppose I am developing PyTorch+cuda code on a remote machine, do I need to have that same PyTorch version installed locally?

If you run the language server remotely, how do you sync the file before it has been saved so that the user gets autocomplete?

Physically crash. When we would block the control loop at all (even down to 100hz), we would get errors and then occasionally the arm would erratically experience massive acceleration spikes and crash into its nearby surroundings before e-stopping.

Re: Other comment. Yes, this was with ur3e s which by default have update rates at around 500hz.

IIRC, the ROS UR controller runs at 200Hz and we’ve had arms crash when they run much slower than that.

The website claims “30hz polling rate”, “2ms latency”. Not sure if that is a best case or just for that demo.

Beautiful app. Surprised to see JQuery for your frontend; brings back good old memories.

I'd love to develop some MCP servers, but I just learned that Claude Desktop doesn't support Linux. Are there any good general-purpose MCP clients that I can test against? Do I have to write my own?

(Closest I can find is zed/cody but those aren't really general purpose)

New comment by LatticeAnimal in "Should JavaScript be split into two languages?"

LatticeAnimal — Sat, 26 Oct 2024 16:15:51 +0000

In many ways this has already started happening. TS has enums, Svelte has runes, React has jsx. None of these features exist in JS, they are all compile-time syntax sugar.

While it is admittedly confusing to have all these different flavors of JS, I don’t think this proposal is actually as radical as it seems.

From the post:

They swap teams every 2-4 weeks so nobody will always be on team defense.

Recently gpt-4-turbo started rejecting writing some tests because it 'knows' it would exceed the max context. (This frustrated me deeply -- It would not have exceeded the context)

Admittedly, I also assumed that the question was referring to version numbers instead of real numbers and was confused for a few seconds.

Though that may just be because I program a lot more than I do arithmetic nowadays.

> In New Zealand, non-urgent traffic incidents can be reported by calling *555 from a mobile phone. Alpha characters may also be used in phone numbers, such as in 1-800-Flowers.

Is this true? Do carriers actually accept [a-zA-Z] in their phone numbers? (if so, how are they encoded?). I couldn't find any reference to this elsewhere.

I had assumed that advertisement-numbers like `1-800-Flowers` had to be translated by a person when they entered the number on their phone via their keypad.

One of the things I appreciate about HN is the depth of discussion. I think part of that depth comes from the assumption that everyone who is commenting has read the article.

I wasn’t trying to be pedantic (even though I certainly was) I was just trying to grapple with this ideal

It seems like you’re talking about the online maps of Jerusalem and how they don’t match the real world.

That isn’t what the article is about (despite its title)

Are you implying that he is adjusting his reading list to fake competence? Thomas Wolf has the second highest number of commits on HuggingFace/transformers. He is clearly competent & deeply technical
