I absolutely understand this is still alpha so I kind of assumed these are expected. Frankly, that's why I haven't submitted an issue -- I assumed it's going to be fixed at some point. I'll go ahead and make an issue on GitHub, thanks.

Exactly - something along the lines of "Statement is unreachable".

I love the speed advantage of pyrefly over (based)pyright but so far it doesn't seem to highlight as much as pyright does, for example it doesn't catch unreachable code like this:

  def fn(x: str):
    if x is None:
      x = "123"  # pyright flags that as unreachable code, pyrefly does not
Autocomplete for modules also doesn't work for me yet:

  import os
  os.  # I'll get `ABC, `Any`, `AnyStr`, `AnyStr_co`, `BinaryIO`, ...
Looking forward to have a fast language server for python though, pyright is way too slow for large projects.

Not sure why are you getting downvoted but I wanted to express my appreciation of comments like this. Being a non-native speaker I’ve been struggling with nuances like that one and native speakers I encounter hardly ever want to correct my errors, likely because they don’t want to come across as rude.

Interesting question to me, as I was focusing on AI for most of my career but got burnt out. Getting back to more traditional software engineering was a bliss. Right now, I'm working on our web scraping API SaaS (https://scrapingfish.com/). What I found mildly surprising and amusing is how web scraping happens to have one common thing with AI: you hypothesize on something, run an experiment, draw conclusions, iterate.

A SaaS we developed with my cofounder. Started at the beginning of this year and been growing steadily. We are involved daily in user support, marketing and development.

We attribute the growth to a couple of very successful blog posts which made it to the front page of HN.

Thank you HN!

I love that eglot is being incorporated into emacs, though I myself use lsp-mode. Does anybody know how advanced eglot is? As far as I hear, it doesn't support multiple language servers which seems like a showstopper for web dev these days, e.g. I usually have ts lang server + tailwind lang server running at the same time when doing web dev.

Yes, RPi is totally optional. This article just provides an example setup.

That's not easy to estimate, depends on your location and if you want to use RPi.

A (very) rough estatimate is ~$40 per dongle, RPi starts from $35, totalling ~$115. You'd also need to buy two 4G plans.
