such a sick episode with dax.

SST’s free tier will be free as long as aws allows a free tier, their free tier literally costs them nothing.

They talked about keeping SST small, the limitations that brings, but also the number of problems that just go away when you only have 3 people building. Lots of process disappears, everyone can trust everyone, no one needs to wait for approval, everyone is their own PM and just builds cool shit. They don’t have to worry about big costs and making payroll because they are profitable so much higher than their costs.

If they can get through phase one of just being the go platform for a very specific audience of users, and gain marketshare, the ideas of offerings on top of this are endless.

I had no idea that you could just drop an msi installer right in steam. This worked for me, and was much easier to install pokemon tcg live in 05-2024 on ubuntu 22-04. I added the msi to steam from my downloads, hit start, failed right away like he said it would. changed compatability to proton experimental, and it opened right up.

exclude=True and repr=False is a good pydantic combination for secret attributes such as user passwords, or hashed passwords. exclude keeps it out of model_dumps, and repr keeps it out of the logs.

Hatch be flyin.

This new release of hatch includes support for the new package installer uv which is just mind blowing fast compared to anything else we have in python right now.

[tool.hatch.envs.default] installer = "uv"

The other features are cool too, check them out. I’ll probably be using the test runner, but I’ve been waiting for the uv support since uv launched.

I had a boot issue on my sons fresh ubuntu 24.04 install and journalctl came in clutch.

ProblemType: Bug Distr…

This Thread saved my son’s ubuntu 24.04 install. His was failing to start with the following error.

Gdm: GdmSession: no session desktop files installed, aborting...

Super neat tool to convert html to markdown

>>> import html2text >>> >>> print(html2text.html2text("<p><strong>Zed's</strong> dead baby, <em>Zed's</em> dead.</p>")) **Zed's** dead baby, _Zed's_ dead.

It even plays nicely with rich.

Fantastic interview with Uncle Bob, really it was more of a 2 way conversation. So many of Uncle Bob’s takes have been taken out of context, its cool to hear some of the well actuallys, and the experience behind some of the reasoning.

Imagine waking up to a $1,300 for running an example project! That sounds like peanuts for a cloud bill but for an individual trying to learn that hits my monthly budget real hard.

That’s what happened to Marciej, make sure you check out the full article and give them a 👏 on Medium if you have an account.

The more I see things come out about aws, the more it makes me sick, and confirm my feelings that I cannot possibly use them for a side project without some real $$ planning to come out of it.

Yes, S3 charges for unauthorized requests (4xx) as well[1]. That’s expected behavior.

A full list of standard Accept types.

This is a handy reference.

pydantic has a nice built in email validator EmailStr

It requires an optional pydantic dependency

pip install email-validator

Then you can validate email addresses.

This is my go to rich response container for clis written in python. It creates a nice box around the content on the screen and provides some nice separation in the output. It can be overdone, but comes in clutch when looking for that print statement in a long output.

This page shows how to customize your fastapi errors. I found this very useful to setup common templates so that I can return the same 404’s both programatically and by default, so it all looks the same to the end user.

from fastapi import FastAPI, Request from fastapi.responses import JSONResponse class UnicornException(Exception): def __init__(self, name: str): self.name = name app = FastAPI() @app.exception_handler(UnicornException) async def unicorn_exception_handler(request: Request, exc: UnicornException): return JSONResponse( status_code=418, content={"message": f"Oops! {exc.name} did something. There goes a rainbow..."}, ) @app.get("/unicorns/{name}") async def read_unicorn(name: str): if name == "yolo": raise UnicornException(name=name) return {"unicorn_name": name}

This post sat in draft for months. I stumbled upon it again and found great success returning good error messages based on user...

Joe has a sick cli.labs site for deploying tui applications.

html can preserve newline \n characters by styling an element with white-space: pre-wrap;

pre-wrap Sequences of white space are preserved. Lines are broken at newline characters, at
, and as necessary to fill line boxes.

The htmx response-targets extension allows me to respond to errors from the backend and do normal htmx swaps.

Load the extension in head

<script src="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/ext/response-targets.js"></script>

Use the extension on an endpoint that might return a 400.

As of kubernetes 1.15 there is an easy way to restart all pods in a deployment.

kubectl -n {NAMESPACE} rollout restart deploy

Thanks Lane give him a follow @wagslane

Jerod (It’s ya boi) and Adam are my favorite tech news nerds, and have the sickest podcasts in tech. Yes plural podcasts they run seven podcasts maybe more. If you want it short and sweet they got the best 15 minutes of tech news each week this is it. My favorite is Ship it, sad to see Gerhard go, but Justin and Autumn are crushing it. Every episode is highly polished and surrounded by the sickest beats in podcasting.

Subscribe to one pod if you want, but I recommend collecting them all with the master feed.

Small web app to convert html into markdown. Pretty cool idea. I actually want to look into this for reader and see how well it would work. Right now I am just pulling descriptions, but maybe I can pull full web pages, and keep the full intent of the first 200 words or so in the cards.

Award for the creepiest way to stand up a robot from lying flat.
