I guess if they're big enough they should be working on moving off of amazon SES for emails and warming up ip addresses? Otherwise they need to keep a markup on top of amazon.

Edit: didn't realize people were paying resend $20. AWS already exists at a low price and people pick them anyway, i'm sure they're fine.

Dumb question but why are chemical weapons always addressed as a risk with llms? Is the idea that they contain how to make chemical weapons or that they would guide someone on how?

Would there not already be websites that contain that information? How is an llm different, i guess, from some sort of anarchist cookbook thing.

I've found the memory limits to block more of my projects than cpu time. They seem to send multiple requests to a single node/process and if you're making some sort of remix app it easily breaks with any kind of load.

The other thing i've noticed about burritos is that more places take card or apple pay now. When I moved to sf in 2015 many of them were cash only, same with bars. I always assumed some amount of cash was being shuffled under the table.

run your backend tests against this in memory and tests can be run in parallel instead of using a single real postgres instance

Our HoA uses google groups. Mild spam, but overall pretty good for threads. Too many people spam everyone asking for a plumber or whatever

What are you doing that requires checking in the compiled version. Esbuild takes like one second

That's a good point, I would lose package provenance that way. I guess that is fine since it didn't prevent anything here.

I can look into that.

Yes, exactly.

That's fair, I'm referring to the number of mistakes that happen with local publishing. Publishing the wrong branch, not building from latest etc

Sorry if that wasn't clear. This was a token with global publish rights to my npm packages.

there's existing libraries in this space that are quite good. not sure why you would use this instead.

storage for example:

https://github.com/unjs/unstorage vs byojs storage https://github.com/byojs/storage

most users are going to prefer autocomplete and types regardless of if they also use typescript.

esbuild can bundle typescript files directly, you don't need tsc to strip types

edit: nevermind i get what you're saying. check types with tsc and dev work with esbuild

I used vue 2 for work during the switch to vue 3. It was horrific to watch as the vue community had to relearn the worst parts of the class components and the massive shortcomings of both the template library type checking and the other parts that basically can't ever support typescript like class mixins. If you want to use vue with a .tsx file you might as well use react.

Today, 33% of vue downloads in the last 7 days are for vue 2.

There was a lot of things that were nice in the vue world like vite and vuex, but I'd never recommend vue to anyone, especially anyone that wants a good typescript experience.

here's an example library button using .tsx in vue https://github.com/vuetifyjs/vuetify/blob/master/packages/vu...

If you use webpack and haven't looked into rspack you should! Can drop it in and speed up large webpack apps, currently investigating it at Sentry.
