Why is an article from Jan 2025 being recirculated on HN now?
It's not Europol's role to push for this, and the European commission has suffered setbacks with ChatControl and other measures already since that time with excellent politicians such as Patrick Breyer doing an outstanding job of informing about and advocating for privacy.
Can you say more about (the|your perceived) relationship between SQL and htmx? When looking up HTMX[1] I was surprised to see what looks like a relatively young project with no direct relation obvious to SQL.
Why do people even reinvent this wheel every few months? Does the <1KB size even matter with modern caches and HTTP2? Does the amount of written lines of code matter when there's modern linters and tooling?
Anyone can build a "reactive" type framework by following tutorials online now, they're super in vogue.
Is my cynicism here warranted, or am I just jaded from 20 years of watching pendulums swing left and right and watching the wheel be reinvented over and over?
I haven't seen the documentary, but my anecdotal experience visiting SF annually since 2016 for work is that it's utterly dire.
I live in northern europe, in Germany, so our bar is high, quality of life is good, but i'm no snowflake prude, around Market Street in San Francisco is simply disgraceful.
I witnessed on every trip passers by being harassed sexually by mentally unstable, or drug abusing people. I was offered to buy a stolen gun in broad daylight a block over from the Twitter building. I saw a gang of people storm a hair salon on Market St. and attack the occupants, spilling out into a 10 person brawl on the street. I've seen people jumping turnstyles and being assaulted by police/security personnel.
What technology did you use for the animations? I've a bunch of itches I'd like to scratch that would be improved by having some canvas animated explainers or UI but I never clicked with anything. D3 back in the day.
A rudimentary look in the source code showed a <traffic-simulation/> element but I'm not up to date enough with web standards to guess where to look for that in your JS bundle to guess at the framework!
Postman, since they raised money have really lost their way in my opinion. The tool gets harder to use, with a more cluttered UI in every release. Seemingly random UI decisions make it awful to use.
Glad to see competition in the space, but I doubt that Kreya can claim to be a "postman alternative" unless it has 75% feature parity with Postman, simply because the range of ways people use Postman is so broad, that it's an unverifiable claim.
Unless Kreya can do teams, testing, scripting, sharing, reviews, forking, publishing secret-link API docs, generating example API code out of the docs in Ruby/Python/etc, it certainly isn't an _alternative_ to Postman for my team's use-cases.
As part of a team of maintainers of a popular (declining) gem, shame they don't make a mention of the extremely valid "gem is owned by a team, and anyone may push" model. I regret that the MFA token for many gems such as this may end-up in 1Password or similar, shared, along side the other credentials, rather than on a separate device or similar.
Had you taken the time to open the link, the 2nd paragraph states their capabilities succinctly:
> Parcel CSS has significantly better performance than existing tools, while also improving minification quality. In addition to minification, Parcel CSS handles compiling CSS modules, tree shaking, automatically adding and removing vendor prefixes for your browser targets, and transpiling modern CSS features like nesting, logical properties, level 4 color syntax, and much more.
>Much like Notion and other block editing methods, site content is represented in a JSON format. Each block has a type, for example, a block of Paragraph would have the type "Paragraph" and would be represented by {"type":"paragraph", "text": "Hello World"}, and an image would have the type "Image" represented by {"type":"image", "url":"http://placekitten.com/200/300"}. A page consists of an array of blocks representing the blocks in the page. A page that consists of a Heading, a Paragraph, and an Image would be represented by an array of maps with types “heading”, “paragraph”, and “image” respectively. A block can also have children. For example, a block of type “Container” may have 3 children of “Paragraph” blocks. It’s very similar to the DOM structure.
Why not make a DOM Editor then with virtual components? The JSON<>React serialization doesn't seem to offer much value, unless it's purely mechanical.
I don't mean to detract from the praise your product is getting here, but I'm really curious about those motivations if you have time to answer my query in amongst the other more excited threads, I'd be glad to understand what the trade-off buys you?
> It’s no secret that the Ethereum login will soon become a user standard and passwords will no longer be needed.
That's some serious kool-aid that the author has been drinking.
Nothing worthwhile in the article, users will be asked in a popup to sign a message they don't understand and will click-through anyway, and this hyperbole is applicable anyway only to dApps on Ethereum.
The best alternative to JWTs looked like it was going to be https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-paragon-paseto-rfc-00.html but the reference implementation and RFC have gone quiet, and these days JWTs are basically OK, the security problems are largely solved by more sensible defaults in most of the common language implementations.
