External Link stackoverflow.com Today I came across some sqlalchemy models that created some relationships, some used some used. I was stumped why, I had never came accross before and I felt skill issues sinking in. backref is considered legacy https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/14/orm/backref.html As stated in the sqlalchemy docs, backref is a legacy feature. Its shorthand to creating relationships between parent and child, but only adding it to the parent. While this is simpler it introduces some invisible magic.
If you’re into interesting projects, don’t miss out on datasette-litestream, created by datasette. Datasette plugin for streaming SQLite database backups to S3, using Litestream!
I came across minio from minio, and it’s packed with great features and ideas. MinIO is a high-performance, S3 compatible object store, open sourced under GNU AGPLv3 license.
I came across uv from astral-sh, and it’s packed with great features and ideas. An extremely fast Python package and project manager, written in Rust.
I came across aerial.nvim from stevearc, and it’s packed with great features and ideas. Neovim plugin for a code outline window
I’m really excited about cadwyn, an amazing project by zmievsa. It’s worth exploring! Production-ready community-driven modern Stripe-like API versioning in FastAPI
Textualize has done a fantastic job with toolong. Highly recommend taking a look. A terminal application to view, tail, merge, and search log files (plus JSONL).
2.5 Admins 180: Email 777 – 2.5 Admins 2.5admins.com How do you pronounce URL, is it U.R.L or Earle? I’m about 50/50, mostly when I am in a hurry I use Earle as it is one syllable and easy to say. I picked this up from MPJ of fun fun function, who took over Dev Tips. In this episide Jim uses Earle and they make fun of him. If it’s good enough for Jim, I am done with my 50/50 and I’m going all in on Earle. Episode also included a fastinating corrdinated attack that used Ars Technica profile photos communicate directions for the next attack via query parameters in the image url.
This really makes me want to try Dolphin Mixtral with ollama now. It looks very impressive from this video. The ability to keep adding features before becoming confused is though with a lot of these llms. Being chat based, this is not a co pilot replacement. I was really hoping for an in line co pilot like tool that I can run locally. I have not used co pilot yet, but I have had great luck with codeium.

Great take on low code. I have definitely felt the pressure of being presented low code options, “look it does almost everything you need, and you can do it without code.” Granted there are tons of great low code environments that serve their markets well (things like zapier). As pointed out here when they fall short rather than being hard, it goes to nearly impossible. As Theo points out here many applications follow an 80/20 rule. 80% of the app is really easy to put together, and takes about 20% of the time, probably less. What no code does is it takes that 80% that is already easy, makes it even easier ( pitches it as faster whether or not that is true), and makes the last 20% of the project impossibly hard to create and maintain, so you just should have picked a tool that had the capability of doing the whole thing from the start anyways.

poc is not product

A poc is not a product. I started focais, not in a rush, but as something that I already had a POC for and thought it would be easy. I wanted to build tools to make creating blog posts like this one easier. I stared with a tool that takes screenshots of websites. POC (proof of concept) For the poc, I made a single fastapi endpoint that takes a url and returns a screenshot of the page. It converts the url into a key that I can lookup to see if I have the shot, if I don’t I go get it. With the open source libraries out there, this is not too hard of a task. Progress Thus Far /shot But this wasn’t enough All it does so far for this first tool is take screenshots of websites, and give you a hosted image. Users To bring in users, I need to create a signup flow, with a database to store users, login, logout, and email recovery. I’ve never had to use an email service before that wasn’t already mandated by a company or an iternal smtp server. After some searching I chose resend for email. Prog…
I’ve heard prime say just give it the one eyed fighting kirby so many times, and execute it few times, and there is no way to find it online, so this will be the link that I will come to, when I need to remember what @theprimeagen means when he says Give it the one eyed fighting kirby. So what is this? This is a vim substitute comand to replace text in the buffer. the one eyed fighting kirby is a regex capture group to capture everything between matches, and assign it a value to place back in after the match. substitute in a nutshell, More examples Here is a contrived example of text. Now for some reason I want to switch all of the words here and there. I can do that with three capture groups, \1 is here, \2 is everything between, \3 is there. Just give it the one eyed fighting kirby ~prime still struggling I thought this explaination from phind was good and more verbose than mine. describe this vim substitute regex:%s/(here)(.)(there)/\3\2\1 ANSWER | PHIND V9 MODEL The given Vim substitute regex:%s/(here)(.)(there)/\3\2\1 performs the following operation: %s initiates the substitute command. The percent sign % indicates that the operation should be performed across the entire file…
