If you’re going to use SQLite regularly, you’ll need some extra infrastructure. OP’s post provides some boilerplate that would help you on your way.

What has really made the difference for me recently though, is Simon Willison’s sqlite_utils package. It’s heavier weight than OP’s wrapper classes, but it’s infinitely more powerful and has made using a local database a joy instead of the kludge I usually make of it. I’ll be bummed to writing stuff for PostGres when I have to do that

+1 for this question. Postman was a thing of simple beauty before they tried chasing the VC money

Even more concerning is all the upvotes. That means somebody’s not only posting bullshit, they’re running bots here too

This is a hero list! Props

Nice to hear. So… anybody using it yet? We’re all waiting to see if something’s better, cheaper, or easier than OpenAI.

Great question man. This is a big help to see!

So… what’s this article about? What did you find interesting about it?

While I would love to see Twitter auguring straight into the ground, Twitter’s API changes would explain some portion of this traffic changes. I wonder if there are any other proxy measures for audience engagement as separate from basic traffic

Interesting. Would love to know more about languages that can and can’t be parsed by this approach; the abstract assumes some greater formal-language proficiency that I don’t have

For the curious: this is an impressive and meditative ~5 minute video showcasing a simple but flexible recursive drawing system. I found it worth the watch and I’m curious about the code

+1. I haven’t used Twilio much, but I was impressed with the ease of use and onboarding when I used it 5+ years ago

Does anybody have insight into the design choice away from named arguments? Everything in the article and in the comments seems like different levels of kludge around an unfortunate decision

Are you trying to do something programmatic with thousands of calls, or just engineer your own bespoke stuff? Seconding AWS SNS for big things. For small projects things, Google Voice at least used to be free or cheap and let you treat phone communications much more like emails than a standard phone number does.

Thanks, those are great examples that illustrate the possibilities in the post well!

I’m not offended by the idea, but I definitely subscribed here to hear about the electronic game development industry. So, my vote is against board/card game posts

Thanks. That’s a big article, and some extra commentary and streamlining there is welcome!
