Show HN: Use Airtable as a database in a frontend
Hi!

A few weeks ago I wanted to build a content-based website using Airtable as a data source but found that the Airtable API key isn't scoped. Basically anyone who has that key can mess up your Airtable bases.
So I built Flairtable as a go-between that prevents all writes to your Airtable base.

Let me know what you think! I'm here to answer any questions.

I'm also very curious about any missing features. Do you think it needs Firebase like database rules to really be useful?

Cheers!
Ian
Are there going to be legal consequences for this?

I would expect this to carry the heaviest penalties possible including massive penalties against China if they fail to enforce them, but I guess nothing is going to happen given the current state of society.
That's a shame. I have a very keen interest in the project and would contribute if I wasn't on the job hunt currently.

Before even checking the GitHub repo, how are your docs? Can an outsider make a deep dive into your code without needing to pester you with questions?
Would be nice to have Desktop views too for web apps (e.g. made in Electron for MacOS).

Haskell's higher gzipped code size might be due to assignment providing semantic compression for other languages -- that gzip isn't applying to Haskell

I.e. gzip is very unlikely to model assignment in it's compression algorithm, so it will compress other elements -- and those elements probably correlate with the ones Haskell already optimizes for

So gzip metric makes the other languages look better than a pure loc would

This chart shows the balance between the verbosity of a program written in a language, and the runtime performance of it. The ideal programming language would sit at the lower left quadrant.

This is a very odd way to rank programming languages. A language which said nothing and did nothing would be in the lower left too.

I don't mind things being verbose if they are easy to read - compactness is not a good measure of clarity. Code is read far more often than it is written, so this is important, and performance is part of a set of tradeoffs against resource usage etc, it's not a static thing for all situations.
Well, I'm not sure (as I always erase GTK/Qt apps as soon as they become useless), but what I remember is that they do handle window changes (b.c. event propagation is handled in AppKit), but the inertia doesn't feel right.

No, people are not making money beating the market. See long term bets about ETF vs managed money managers. If you beat the market today like "you bough when it was 20% down" then "sell now because i went back to what it was" you have to buy again to stay in the market or never sell. Otherwise market will go up and you will stay with "one time shot" that in 5 or 10 years will be worth nothing.

Time in the market makes money, so market is right.

At this moment I'm just generally frustrated with the state of desktop OSs in general. I used a Mac for a decade, and was generally happy with it, but not so happy with Apple's direction and recent poorer hardware. I recently installed Windows on a couple of machines, and that's just a horrific experience, and below the shinier surface, the OS is still as clunky as ever.

I've been putting my hope on Linux, but what the world really needs, is for someone to create a unified vision for a Linux/BSD/open source based OS and hardware that basically takes the Apple approach, or at least the approach Apple had 15 years ago.

It's amazing how little progress there has been in this field. If I had money and some expertise in this area, I'd start my own company making better laptops with a Unix-like OS that's not afraid of breaking compatibility with old Linux ideas like this that are holding us back. But that's never going to be more than a dream.

Xamarin.Forms 4.6: Material Components, Shell, and the Future
Lower down the tread I mentioned vendor due diligence, specifically because I’ve done so many vendor security reviews. But there’s more to it than that. You might also need to be threat modelling it, legal will need to review the ToS and privacy policy. You probably need to figure out the impact on other services too. If you’re in a regulated organisation, there could be any number of other things you have to do, and on going compliance costs. If you work in a bank, and somebody wants to install Gentoo, you’d have to figure out how to run anti-virus on it, how to centralise patches for it, how to install endpoint DLP, make sure it has the correct web proxy configuration... the costs can easily stack up.
> Cons lists were slow on the IBM 704 too. Good thing that didn't stop anyone, right?

The IBM 704 didn't have a cache hierarchy. The problem that the person you're replying to is talking about didn't exist on that architecture.

Accessing any memory location on an IBM 704 took the same time, so it doesn't matter if your values are consecutive in memory as in an array, or somewhere far away as possibly in a linked list.

But on a modern architecture reading a value far away can cause a cache miss.

What do you think the time penalty is for a full cache miss? Something small? Maybe a couple of times slower? No, the difference between a level 1 hit as often in an array, and a cache miss, as often in a linked list, is around two orders of magnitude.

It's literally multiple orders of magnitude worse relatively than it was on the 704.

Ideally modern Lisp implementations would use some kind of variant of the storage strategies pattern, as used for languages like JavaScript, to give the same semantics as a cons cell but actually using a cache-friendly implementation, but I think this is an unsolved research problem.
The trick is to forward emails with no marker to spam. Sure they can strip markers but I assume they don't replace markers to match my "canonical" email address.

You will have to elaborate, I don't understand. Marker is here just to handle mail on server side and I can easly upgrade it to hash of hash + salt and handle it programatically on server but there was never any need for it. And anyway I couldn't care less, without it mail is invalid, still 0 spam. And I am doing it for last 10 years so it is battle proven.
Additionally, "to cons" more broadly means "to allocate memory".

Agreed. It would be more clear if it had been titled “resetting your root password.” For most of the (physical) Linux computers I’ve dealt with, the full disk encryption password would prevent even making it into any recovery mode without a passphrase, but maybe that’s atypical. The folks I work with tend to value security over recoverability.

>VCF East XI -- Ted Nelson: Ted Nelson designed the Xanadu hypertext software and wrote the two-in-one personal computing book, Computer Lib / Dream Machines, in 1974. His work deeply influenced the personal computing revolution. Ted earned two Ph.D.s and penned several other well-regarded academic papers and books about ethical, historical, and moral issues in computing.

>Computer Lib/Dream Machines is a 1974 book by Ted Nelson, printed as a two-front-cover paperback to indicate its "intertwingled" nature. Originally self-published by Nelson, it was republished with a foreword by Stewart Brand in 1987 by Microsoft Press.

>In Steven Levy's book Hackers, Computer Lib is described as "the epic of the computer revolution, the bible of the hacker dream. [Nelson] was stubborn enough to publish it when no one else seemed to think it was a good idea."
If you learned the difference between reentrant functions and non-reentrant subroutines the way I did you would never equate them again.

Back in the early 80's when I was 14 or so I wanted to replace a slow bubble sort in a BASIC program of mine with something faster. I had a book that had a quicksort implementation in Pascal and I thought it would be straight-forward to translate it into BASIC.

Of course the naive translation didn't work. Luckily the chapter before the quicksort in the book was all about recursion so I did figure out what was wrong. I also had enough experience with assembly language to be familiar with the concept of passing parameters on a stack. I just hadn't really internalized why someone would do that. In the end, I had to use an array to create a parameter stack to work around the lack of reentrant functions, but I did get it working, and it was a lot faster than the old bubble sort.

In a literal sense you're right but the end result is ostensibly same (ie you've gained root access).

What Is Google Fi and How Does It Work?
This usage shouldn't be encouraged. We don't have the same double meaning with snail mail. Why should we have it with email?
It’s because emails would get more clicks than email addresses.
Almost everything in medicine ends up being surprising. So much "knowledge" is just someone's assumption being passed as gospel only to be discovered false years later. Medicine isn't an engineering problem. There is an analogy in software engineering where people argue about the most "efficient" way to do something and don't bother profiling it with real world data.

There are consequences to advising people that their masks are half worthless, if it is not true. People might not be willing to wear valveless N95 masks. Or they take those masks off more and expose themselves more. Asking for a little data behind a recommendation is more than reasonable.

Does this imply that anti-functionalism is better?

I.e. gzip and the human brain can probably compress repetition and local effects very easily -- and this is what purity gives. So with purity I can only represent the obvious (i.e. easily computable), and gzip suggests this is the part of the computation that least needs expressing -- since it is already the most clear

But allowing anything to affect anything else in any way; as a maxima; allows me to represent the least-obvious algorithms most succinctly -- and least-obvious algorithms are the most important ones to represent succinctly!

I feel like there is some truth here, but it is not the whole story. What am I missing?

> Does Pop inherit Ubuntus snapifictation with 20.04?
Not to the same extent. The Pop Shop tends to have newer versions of the software they pride themselves on and it is not snap'd. God I hate snaps. Say you want to run Darktable and have your photos on say a ZFS pool? pain in the friggin ass.I just rebuilt my CentOS 7 box to Ubuntu 20.04 after ZFS and Nvidia kernel woes finally drove me to abandon my beloved distro (I am a RH admin so it took a lot to get me to that point but have never really managed to get into Fedora)but the friggin snaps (and the subsequent drop in support from lots of projects to easily build for Ubuntu) were so painful. The minute I saw that PopOS 20.04 had been released I converted from Ubuntu to PopOS and have thus far been very happy.

> Do they release newer kernels for the LTS releases like Canonical does with Ubuntu LTS?

As far as I can tell PopOS is a pretty light layer on top of vanilla Ubuntu. You can still install everything from the Ubuntu repos etc.

> Do they pack ZFS in the kernel like Ubuntu?

I did a conversion and my ZFS install came over just fine (and my pool import from my janky CentOS built pool was shockingly simple-- only hiccup was that I didnt have SMB and NFS installed yet when I did it so the exports failed, but everything else worked).

Now my only complaint is that the Ubuntu implementation of Gnome does superkey+arrowkey Windows style AeroSnaping and In the two days or so I used it I got really used to it and that is not the default behavior in PopOS and haven't figured out how to tweak it yet. Its a really nice desktop environment and I have heard great things about the Pop Shell but havent played with it much yet. Now I just need to figure out how to prune out all the snap crap I installed and all the libraries I installed trying and failing to compile stuff from source. I am lost without yum. I know people hate it but I know it like the back of my hand and apt is different enough (and Canonical documentation is laughable compared to RHEL) to make me feel a little lost in the weeds. But native ZFS and Nvidia have been a godsend. A modern implementation of kvm/qemu is super nice-- my VMs are so much easier to manage now. And I'm really looking forward to playing with Wireguard again now that it has kernel support.
Well, an email client isn't a tool just for developing - it's a generic tool that has a lot of use cases. I don't think one should sacrifice features to get diff highlights or filtering PRs, nor should a generic email client try to implement out-of-the-box SourceHut filtering functionality.

Yes, one can use specific filters to accomplish subscribing to a particular PR, but that's complex, and when I'm using a generic email client I can't think of how it can not be complex.
According to the RFC ‘+’ is a valid character and tagged addresses (which aren’t mentioned) represent unique users (so removing the marker could result in the email not being delivered at all.)

IME: I’ve never had anyone remove it (although some don’t accept it and others will have bugs that result in an unusable account if you register with it.) I used one with the company I most recently interviewed at (they used a third party service for the HR site and I’ve had trouble with sites like that selling my email address which is just so enraging honestly.) Every. Single. Time. I logged in to fill out a form after getting hired I had to call HR and have them reset my account because of some weird bug.
