I really love @fly.io for many things, but using their Dashboard with many orgs, especially linked orgs is really a pain. Switching orgs is a pain: there is no filter on the dropdown, its cutting off the name on the dropdown menu,

Is it still worth it to implement RAG in 2025 when CAG is around the corner already?

submitted 7 days ago • 0 comments

Last weeks I was deep into researching lots of AI 🤖 related topics. From base / supporting tech to RAG, splitting & chunking, embedding, Agents, Workflow Automations, etc. etc. Will take my brain 🧠 a bit to digest that and bring everything into context

What are some Free Software / Open Source Notion alternatives when we only need some simple collaborative meeting notes, note taking and internal documentation together with our team? Preferable written in TypeScript but actually does not matter, easily able to self host.

🚀 Big news for Node.js developers! require(esm) has been backported to Node.js 20, removing a major roadblock for ESM adoption. With Node 18 nearing EOL, library maintainers can finally go ESM-only with confidence. 🎉 socket.dev/blog/require... #NodeJS #JavaScript

I use a MacBook and keep it closed at home, so I miss TouchID. With my custom split keyboard, I would need a separate Apple keyboard with TouchID, which i dont want. So please dear @apple.com create a Magic Trackpad with Touch ID! cc: @appleinsider.com @macrumors.bsky.social

Apple wants you to pay $800 for 2TB of NVMe storage. But if you want that, why not pay $269 and upgrade your M4 Mac mini yourself? See how in my video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLtE...

Our @forge42.dev base-stack is RSC ready! 🔥 With the latest release, it runs on @vite.dev v6 and @vitest.dev v3. As soon as react-router drops RSC support, it's a matter of upgrading the dependency version! Check out the PR here: github.com/forge42dev/b...

Wow, I never would have thought that I love @raycast.com Focus mode so much. The best features are the end sound and animation. It feels like Super Mario reaching the top of the flagpole at the end of every world 😅

I have been using DuckDuckGo.com as my main search engine for at least five years. I rarely need to fallback to other search engines because I usually find what I'm looking for. So, I wonder why you aren't using DuckDuckGo yet? No tracking, Fast, search results and no other bullshit.

Are there any alternative approaches to GitHub’s protected deployment environments which also work on private repos without the need to be GitHub enterprise customer? What I want is manual approval for multi stage deployments?
