Ask HN: Any materials on building distributed rate limiter?

ravshan — Tue, 12 May 2026 15:12:32 +0000

There are surprisingly not that much information on building a rate limiter where a web app has multiple instances running at the same time and needs a rate limiter.

Checking redis on each request is not an option since there are about billion requests daily.

Have you been living under the rock for the past 10 years? Haven't you seen what happens with recommendation engines over time?

This reminded me of this post (https://www.reddit.com/r/Stoic/comments/1823mip/). I don't really know what stoicism means but that was hilarious.

Chrome's version is experimental I think, started seeing it this week and it is kinda bad, try to use it yourself and compare to firefox.

Ask HN: Why doesn't Firefox capitalize on picture-in-picture mode?

This mode lets you pop out a video from a web page into a small, movable window that stays on top of everything else. So why does mozilla focus their ads on privacy side instead of this killer feature?

I am trying to transition from .net to python, but finding conflicting information online about what people Actually Use.

People recommend their favorite tool, but when you look into it, it is barely supported or already abandoned.

I will focus on working with LLMs.

Ask HN: Why is almost every YouTuber trying to waste our time?

ravshan — Thu, 22 May 2025 07:14:09 +0000

In the last five years I've noticed emergence of a "essay youtubers". What they do is basically drag a five minute video to thirty minutes.

No it was not maximizing profit for investors. It was about having a successful business which will continue to bring money (which would make investors rich). But now it is c-suite are just trying to cash out by delivering good quarter get their bonuses and jump the ship imo.
