Ask HN: Astro vs. NextJS vs. Remix, help me decide
I looked for a JS self help group and I found none.
At work I've been tasked to rewrite the Frontend of a job posting platform with 10k+ local jobs. The backend is in PHP Symfony and we will adopt api platform for it now

The top requirements are (from important to less important): SEO, performant pages (for SEO), easy to maintain, self hostable and some interactivity with search results and smooth transition to opening job posts.

I would like to use SSG/SSR and on fast changing locations maybe ISR

Because it's a local job platform we only need to cover one region. And Job postings are not so dynamic so I would like to rely on heavy caching and invalidating the cache for a specific location when jobs change. And we only have a small team so it should be easy to develop and maintain but I guess each of them are.

My first thought was about using Nextjs (thats what I use in most small to mid sized projects)
But I only host on vercel and Nextjs seems to work differently when selfhosting even with sst/opennext. Also Nextjs somehow seems to like breaking changes.

My second thought was Remix as a reliable middle option

And my last and intriguing thought was using Astro and heavily use SSG and ISR and use react on top. But I somehow think that Astro might not be suitable for larger projects - but I really love astro for its simplicity and ease of use.

Help me decide, have any of you had such content heavy projects and what did you use or what would you use if you were able to rewrite it
I'm curious why they don't transplant into the pancreas?
I suspect "MRI-strength electromagnet" falls into a different budget category than "medical grade and certified imaging system", including but not limited to "MRI removed from hospital and junked because it's no longer maintained / useful / accurate enough". They are pretty resourceful
By exposing complete and utter ignorance about the neurobiological mechanisms behind motivation and addiction, you've evinced a "stupid" opinion.

When, in your own time, your ignorance leads you to make "stupid" decisions, I hope there's a safety net in place to protect you and people who depend on you. I also hope there's a support network to help people you mislead with your idiotic parenting, should you breed, which at the moment I hope you choose to defer.

In the meantime enjoy congratulating yourself for accomplishments you almost certainly didn't earn purely in virtue of your perceived "intellectual superiority" while denigrating others for mistakes we could have helped them avoid.

Your lack of compassion does not withstand rational scrutiny. I sincerely hope that as you gain experience in the world you continue to reflect on your relationship with other human beings, and that in your own way you develop a deeper and less idiotic understanding of others.
Really cool, I shared your work in a private discord server to the people who have no problem experimenting.

“ The aliasing is quite extreme ”

One interesting thing in becoming a graphics expert and discussing graphics with non-graphicsprogrammers, is that many don’t care about aliasing.

Aliasing in sound is usually painfully untolerable. It does not seem to be like that in graphics.

Based on this, I dont’t think aliasing is a technical critical fault - it should be considered a specific aesthetic IMHO. As long as people can perceive the shape of the geometry information displayed, it’s ‘fit for purpose’.

If one is rendering in constrained environments I’m fairly sure they’ve made peace with the platform limitations.

(I’m not arguing for aliasing, just that in many practical cases it does not actually matter)

How is this different from a human CEO? Removing them from the position doesn't erase the impact of the decisions that led to them being removed.

What happens if the board wants to remove the AI CEO. Do they pick a new model? Feed it some new prompts? Alternate between human and AI CEOs?

The derivatives market is useful for hedging and for market efficiency. A lot of the nay-sayers I see tend to talk about how the nominal exposure is bigger than the market itself as if it were a compelling argument against it but it's not (the reason is that there is a counter-party for every "bet").

As for speculation around the "real" economy, in most cases it is widely talked about as the mother of all evil where in fact, the best way to increase the market value of a company is to turn it into a better company. And on the other end, companies go to 0 because they go bankrupt, not the other way around.

My point is that we are denying the entire market structure to punish the < 1% of bad actors, while it is quite useful for the rest.

Crypto is a different beast entirely. I have never believed in it and I still fail to see the value.
Canada, a bit more liberal than the US, probably has plenty of cities with such policies in place too. Yet, no crime wave there. These waves were a result of Kia's choices, and quite obviously so.
Well we do have that in some states of India, and guess what? It has the same effects. Moreover the government is incentivized to promote this as it's an alternate source of revenue. Roads are peppered with ads, and there's the constant infighting in the ruling government to see who gets the gambling and liquor sales portfolio (and usually it's a buddy or kid of the chief minister).
So true! I think a lot of people, even here on HN, get confused by the marketing term, "AI".

> in which case it gets publicly released unless the other side can convince the judge to seal it.

Motions to seal evidence are routinely granted by courts in civil matters. Parties can try to get embarrassing information entered into the public record, but they have to convince a judge, and that’s often an uphill battle. Courts don’t like to be used as a tool for private parties to air the others’ dirty laundry.
This is also the most shocking thing to me, that Matt seems to be very blasé about using Automattic and the foundation more or less interchangeably and in a very public way to further his goals. So other than the tax writeoffs what was the point of creating the foundation? Where is this guy's legal counsel? Surely they have to be screaming their heads off right now because from the outside every indication now is that the Foundation is really just an extension of Automattic that exists to dodge taxes and whether it is claiming its nonprofit status legally is now becoming a question mark. This is so far for Matt to have fallen and taken WordPress with him

I have the feeling that gambling is popularly acclaimed in the same way that cigarette smoking is.

People may like it but other than a few even the ones who like it wish it didn't exist.

At any rate every article I see about gambling is about how much it sucks. Probably the gambling industry doesn't have the top level public relations that smoking had once upon a time, otherwise I'd be seeing more ads about how gambling makes you a tough guy. Which, come to think of it, I do see a bit of that in Denmark, but Danes don't do advertising that isn't meant to be funny (laugh with) very well so these ads look ridiculous (laugh at)
They just have no space left in the jails, what can you do... I guess they hope that as long as protesters get a spot the damage to society will be manageable.

> Experienced users don't usually screw up their systems to need this thing

It’s less about experienced users screwing up and more about safely running software.

I do lots of small experiments and regularly clone repos from GitHub to try various projects. I prefer to do this in an environment that’s been a bit more hardened and locked down. I like the ability to get my system back to a known good state.

I’ve primarily been using NixOS as a daily driver, but have been pretty curious about Vanilla OS and plan to try it out.
This is actually a pretty good list and that's why i submitted it to HN. The Chinese stratagem "Cast a Brick to attract Jade" is relevant here though i haven't yet seen much "Jade" from others :-) The author's presentation/explanation is also quite succinct and precise with references pointing to further details and thus the overall s/n ratio is very good. This is how tech stuff should be written (contrast with meandering articles with one technique being "explained" over five pages).

Knowing these sort of techniques is important because they force you to think in different ways to solve a problem which expands one's mental design space. C (and C++) is particularly important here since it is the common "lingua-franca" across all system/application software from servers to desktops to itty-bitty MCUs.

PS: Also see the book Fluent C by Christopher Preschern which while not dealing with "tricks" shows how to use C effectively using a pattern-like approach.
That's fair. Certainly I would expect the thumbnail and ibus stuff to need to be on the host - although I'd also argue it was a bug that you needed to bother; that seems like stuff it should handle properly out of the box? I'm pretty sure the flatpak situation has improved with time, though again bear in mind I'm on a slightly different stack. And the general friction of having all your tools inside/outside the containers and needing to glue it all together... I think it's a question of workflow? Like, if I was on silverblue and decided to ex. write or work on some C program, I'd make a container that installed both the specific tools (gcc, make) and my stuff (git, vim, fzf)... or actually I'd probably stick them in 2 containers with a source code directory mounted into both. The funniest thing I hit was needing to make a container to get git when I wanted to create a repo to hold my Dockerfiles first. So it's definitely a bit of friction, but if you're comfortable defining everything you're doing programmatically then it's a bit of pain up front followed by being able to regenerate your entire environment in a few commands: If a new Fedora release drops, you don't upgrade your containers; you bump the base image, build, and cut over to the new container, and if you hit problems you revert to the old tag. If you don't like that approach then yes it might be annoying. Or, if you prefer pets to cattle, you'd need everything you want to be available in one distro so you have to figure out the host/container demarcation but then it's all one container to manage.
I panicked a little when I heard the news as I run a cupsd open on the Internet. But as it turns out, the issue is misrepresented in headlines, just like here. This is not an issue in the core cupsd, but in a separate package/component, called cups-browsed. My distribution of choice for servers, Gentoo Linux, ships cups-browsed in a separate package which I had not installed, meaning I, as well as most other cups users that did not install this additional package, am not affected by this bug.

Saying that all systems running cups can be hacked is a misrepresentation of the scale of the issue.
> Maybe at this scale.

I don't think it's unprecedented, even at this scale.

Novo Nordisk, the pharmaceutical company behind Semaglutide (aka Ozempic) with a market cap >$600 bilion, was founded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation before going public. The latter now has an endowment of over $150 billion and owns a significant fraction of the public company.
Custom tooling I wrote:

1. Focus session time tracker with talking clock counting down every n minutes.

2. Activity monitor and alerter. Tracks active window and title every minute and alerts if more than n minutes outside whitelisted websites. Alert immediately if blacklisted website (dns blocking is painful. Sometimes you want to access it for a few minutes).

A bunch of more things but those are the two most effective ones.

You can't be better or beat the bookies because you don't play the same game. Their game is to get the money placed evenly on all outcomes so that their payout is the same no matter what happens. And people betting are in the business of predicting the future which is a fool's errand. You might think you're above average, but once you realize the game is setup so that the house always wins, you realize it's tough to get out of the hole.

Even with the quotes, as a Finn I find this statement rather tasteless.

Thanks. We should be careful of confirmation bias, of course: How many authoritarians / far-right causes has Musk obstructed based on free speech? How many non-far right and liberal causes has Musk enabled?
Given how flagrantly governments have been using pedophiles as an excuse for curtailing our right to privacy, I don't trust them to execute civilians for this reason (or any). False convictions (intentionally so, in worse-governed countries) are a thing, and I do not cheer for the prospect of giving the government yet another reason to murder its citizens.

Advocacy in favor of the death penalty is never about "death penalty for murderers/rapists" but "death penalty for people convicted of being murderers/rapists". Practice has shown there's a big difference
The hypothetical war in Taiwan would likely be almost entirely naval/aerial so yeah the question is if US has enough political will. Don’t think artillery shells will be a huge factor and even on paper the Chinese navy (and probably the air force) doesn’t even come even remotely close to US (yet).

Actual invasions of Japan and Australia are even harder to imagine. How would that even work? And why?
drone is an incredibly broad category and military ones have really good reasons for sometimes costing a ton more. the biggest reason is the need to deal with adversarial input. dealing with GPS spoofing, properly encrypted and jamming resistant spoofing, not leaking the location of the operator, etc all are really complicated requirements that need expensive mitigation (and worse, prevent you from using commercial components)
>The biggest irony is that professional sportsmen (it's always men) keep getting bans for gambling on their own sport

People pointing this out often leads me to an impression that athletes should be allowed to bet on their own games. Problem is, that leads to match-fixing.

I don't see how this is WordPress' fight to win, given that WP Engine has the backing and resources of private equity (not to mention, while also being in the right). This is like David coming up against Goliath, except Goliath isn't stupid and wore armor and a helmet.
That's technically true, but it could have been designed much better if that was the real intention:

1. There is no real reason that trigraphs should be expanded inside a comment. Preprocessors can't make any additional comment, so the comment should be scanned and discarded as soon as possible but trigraphs somehow precede that.

2. And this very behavior of backslash should have been also deferred as much as possible. ISO C already has two sets of doubly-quoted literals `"asdf"`, where one is used for normal string literals and another is used for preprocessing because `#include "foo\bar.c"` should refer to the file name that contains a backslash, not a backspace (`\b`). Since `#include FILENAME` is also possible, such literals may appear anywhere in the preprocessing line! Therefore we already have to defer processing of some backslashes, so why should remaining backslashes be processed that early?

In my ideal design, a backslash is either a part of tokens (`+\<newline>=`, `foo\<newline>bar` or `"asdf\n\<newline>fdsa"`) or a standalone token optionally followed with a newline (`\<newline>`). No backslashes within comments are significant, effectively solving the first point. These tokens are then turned into normal tokens or whitespaces respectively, so they remain transparent to the parser. The trigraph could then have been allowed to replace backslashes in such cases (e.g. `+??/<newline>=`) without affecting remaining cases like comments.

For the record, later digraphs are more or less designed as such but they lack backslashes, even though ISO/IEC 646 still doesn't contain backslashes for all charsets. This hints that the inclusion of trigraphs or digraphs was more due to vendor complaints (known to be IBM) than actual concerns from users who wouldn't be able to type backslashes if it were true.
But all of those stats will help a team win in theory. But you can bet against yourself, perform poorly, and then get a payout. That is the antithesis of good sportsmanship.

How could you possibly study such a thing? Even if you compare DARE students against non-comparable DARE students, how could you reliably capture measure how many did drugs? People can lie on surveys, particularly with respect to illegal actions. You could measure arrests but that's not going to capture how many used drugs without ever getting arrested, nor the social context in which they were used. It's a double-edged sword too because the control data would have similar issues with obtainment.

I've seen a lot of these talking points before by the pro-drug crowd. "It taught kids about interesting drugs that they probably wouldn't have learned about otherwise" is laughable when subjected to scrutiny. You'd have to live under a rock to otherwise not learn about the drugs the DARE program teaches (and they don't get particularly exotic either). The idea is asinine to begin with - you'd want kids to know about exotic drugs and their side effects to know to avoid them in the first place.

The worst part is that the pro-drug crowd, like yourself, touts these talking points in an attempt to end the program - to what end? If I accept your talking points blindly that the program has failed, does that mean we simply stop trying? It seems less that you disagreed with the implementation of the program and more that you don't believe kids, or anyone, should be dissuaded from drugs.

Do I have evidence of Elon Musk's private thoughts? Let me look ...

> it seems pretty reasonable

It seems like overkill to me. Harris's and Wallz's residences are well known.

Sophisticated public manipulators - and I think we can call Musk one of those - of course don't openly discuss it. One way to analyze the action is to look at the outcome: Musk is certainly sophisticated enough to anticipate the outcome and that would factor into his choice. Cui bono?
CUPS 3 goes the other way, relying solely on IPP for discovery and autoconfiguration.

F1 isn't picky about it's partners and race locations.

I mean they raced in Russia until the war escalated in 2022, unbothered by the literal crimea annexation. They also race in Saudi Arabia with it's terrible human rights record. They even raced in 2022 when a huthi(?) rocket exploded not too far from the track.
They have zero morales regarding such things, only sanctions can stop F1 from dealing with shady nations paying for some sportswashing.

Thank you for the feedback. we will keep an eye out for more inputs from our users on this topic.

We believe there are clear benefits of open source. In fact, we believe in it so much that we made our product OSS compatible from Day 1. (btw, not every observability product is OSS compatible).

We also understand not everyone's evaluation criteria is the same. Upon speaking with number of our early users, we repeatedly found that what really matters is "is the product reliable, cost-effective?", "is the product easy to use and open source compatible?", "is the product easy to migrate in/out?". So, we tried to address those head on. We also heard some open source solutions are indeed unreliable especially at scale e.g. Prometheus has scaling challenges beyond 2M+ active time series / hour and it is not horizontally scalable. People tend to over-provision CPU/Memory, despite that queries time out at any meaningful scale high cardinality queries (this is a well understood problem).

Ability to inspect code, do patches themselves may be an evaluation criteria for some users, we found that it was not the major evaluation criteria among our users. I've led multiple evaluations at Rubrik (open source + non-open source), ability to patch software was not the most important criteria - reliability, operational overhead, cost, ease of use, and ability to switch in/out were may more important.
Should we blame the government or blame society or blame the capitalisation of the industry? Blame Man&Crew, blame man&crew, its the cheapest, earliest out of responsibility ..
