No thanks

The original Raspberry announcement about Raspberry Pi Connect

> All devices get remote shell out-of-the-box, and if you use a Wayland compositor, such as Wayfire, you can also share your screen. In practice, this means you can use screen sharing with Raspberry Pi 4 and later models, and remote shell with all models of Raspberry Pi, even the oldest.

Now I have another task to purge this out of my pi.

And how do you measure the api latency? Any do's and dont's you have learned related to this metrics?

Seeking your opinion on what are top 5 metrics you measure already, what more you would if the data collection or calculation was easier for that metric

New comment by devdiary in "Should I use JWTs for authentication tokens?"

devdiary — Tue, 28 May 2024 05:16:02 +0000

Start with usual session based authentication. Keep it until you see the absolute need to move to JWT. And make sure you understand JWT and "invalidating JWT" before using it - https://github.com/gitcommitshow/auth-jwt?tab=readme-ov-file...

> at the end of the day prompts are just a API call and it's easier to write standard code that treats LLM calls as a flaky API call

They are also dull (higher latency for same resources) APIs if you're self-hosting LLM. Special attention needed to plan the capacity.

thank you for sharing the archive link. Didn't know it is possible to archive a non-public/paywalled content.

How come a paywalled content gets to the top of the HN front-page?

Can you ELI5, how did you make this possible? I see the readme asking to download a binary and then also mentioning sqlite extension. I have never had exp with sqlite ext, so not quite sure how do they work. Appreciate how does this solution work under the hood.

And this understanding is extremely important when you are working on rate limiting. Instead of controlling the rate of requests, one must control the number of concurrent requests - https://docs.fluxninja.com/concepts/concurrency-limiter

Throughput (number of requests processed) is different from capacity (number of requests that can be handled). Managing capacity is more practical and optimum solution than managing the throughput

New comment by devdiary in "Ask HN: Good resources to plan the right plugin architecture"

devdiary — Thu, 28 Dec 2023 03:41:30 +0000

And yes, specifically talking about plugin based architecture. Not just a code refactor. Decoupling is the first step and the plugins will be created by internal team initially, the next will be to ensure security when external users publish their own plugins. The tech stack is Node.js.

Ask HN: Good resources to plan the right plugin architecture

devdiary — Wed, 27 Dec 2023 19:58:38 +0000

I am seeking solution to plan architecture to support new addon that can enhance the value of an existing web app. In current form, the solution is npm packages. We build npm packages that use the product's SDK to interact with its api but when we also want to have a ui component, it becomes a circular dependency. Also there are multiple common components copied across various packages that are common among all. The goal is to decouple tiny functionalities from the main codebase while maintaining the common functionalities in the core project. Appreciate your suggestions and resources.

I also face the same and I have set policy to ban such traffic by IP. Qq: How do you know the IP is forged?

Ask HN: What would you ask an LLM powered code search engine?

devdiary — Wed, 15 Nov 2023 15:23:26 +0000

I'm struggling to understand the value of LLM powered code search engine (there are quite a few that have come up in the last 1 yr). Help me with your answers if you see any value of such engines in searching your internal codebase and docs, what would be the number one question that you'd ask?

If you have tried any already, would love to hear your experience as well.

New comment by devdiary in "What I learned getting acquired by Google"

devdiary — Fri, 10 Nov 2023 10:28:10 +0000

The acquisition seems to be old, Y2019. I am not sure if you wrote this blog just now or had written earlier and published now. How have your perspective changed about the decision to get acquired since 2019, if it did?
