So... what are the good alternatives to yaml?

For quite some time I thought toml, but the way you can spread e.g. lists all over the document can also cause some headaches.

Dhall is exactly my kind of type fest but you can hit a hard brick wall because the type system is not as strong as you think.

If they didn't change it, Playwright uses the aria (accessibility) representation for their MCP agent. It strongly depends on the web page whether or not that yields good results.

We at Octomind use a mix of augmented screenshots and page representation to guide the agent. If Playwright MCP doesnt work on you page, give our MCP a try. We have a free tier.

Ok now I want to know. Does Max php code have security issues? Because especially in early straightforward PHP, those were all over the place. I vaguely remember PHP3 just injected query variables into your variables? But as $_GET is mentioned, this is probably at least not the case...

This is rust, not Java.

Zug does not attempt to solve memory safety. It aims to be a better C

Sorry didnt see this earlier. If you're interested reach out to me (Kosta Welke) on linkedin. Or write me an email, you can find me on Octominds About page.

Hi! Kosta from Octomind here.

We built basically this: Let an LLM agent take a look at your web page and generate the playwright code to test it. Running the test is just running the deterministic playwright code.

Of course, the actual hard work is _maintaining_ end-to-end tests so our agent can do that for you as well.

Feel free to check us out, we have a no-hassle free tier.

Super cool, thank you!

Also note: traffic costs. On Hetzner, it's almost impossible to pay for traffic. Even their tiniest machine has 20 TB outgoing traffic (and unlimited incoming). If you used it up (you most probably wont), that's another 1,792 USD of costs saved by your tiny 4$/month VM compared to AWS. (At least if I was able to use the AWS cost calculator correctly).

They will have object storage soon, but dont hold your breath for one-click kubernetes etc. So the fancier you infrastructure, the more you your startup would need to invest in time and money to use Hetzner and thus make it "not worth it".

If you look at rust now, I think it's a great example of keeping the _spirit_ but allowing to question just about any specific decision.

Funny that the "why not go" still stands, minus the "no generics" part.

Cool article on how to abstract things in Rust. I must admit, I usually write the "bad rust application".

Total nitpick: For `CreateAuthorError::Duplicate`, I would return a 409 Conflict, not a 422 Unprocessable Entity. When I see a 422 I think utf-8 encoding error or maybe some bad json, not a duplicate key in a database.

It was blank for me as well until I reloaded with dev tools open and cache disabled. Figured it was a caching issue but maybe something more weird?

It's really cool that google is investing so heavily in rust. However, the blog post is more of a "starting point" than a "lessons learned" (which I hoped for).

Apple does this during sleep when connected to power, so maybe Microsoft thought it needs that as well?
