I lost my father last year because of complications from severe Alzheimer's. When I saw this, I thought my mother is still with us, and I need to be grateful for that. I love you mum!


Claude goes down every day, even if only intermittently. I think the total downtime is reaching the level of hours. It would be good if they clarified whether this is an inability to scale under heavy demand or a side effect of GenAI assisted development.


Yesterday and today was both for Opus 4.6, their heaviest model. So I think it's load related.


Unfounded speculation but it's curious that it's soon after enabling 1M context tokens on the default plan. I wonder if there are some long-tail load ramifications of this pricing change.


We often see Ghostty on the front page. What makes this project special? Is it solving a big problem with current terminal apps?


In my experience it actually is. I went through multiple terminals and they all had issues for me (missing key remapping functionality, slowness, not working across platforms, UI ugly...), but Ghostty is solving most of these.


There is one more project that aims to build a MongoDB-like query engine and uses Redis wire protocol. It's Kronotop: https://github.com/kronotop/kronotop

Kronotop uses FoundationDB as a metadata store for document indexes and the other stuff. It stores the document bodies on the local disk and supports primary-follower replication.

It also works as a RESP3/RESP2 proxy for FoundationDB API.


Here is the additional use grant: You may make use of the Licensed Work, provided that you may not use the Licensed Work for a Database Service. A "Database Service" is a commercial offering that allows third parties (other than your direct employees and contractors) to access the functionality of the Licensed Work by creating or managing tables whose schemas are controlled or managed by such third parties.


Please visit the project page on GitHub: https://github.com/kronotop/kronotop


Congrats on the launch! I hope Ubicloud will be even more successful than the previous project, Citus!


That's great but his experience is totally unique. My side project is used by at least 10 companies. Some of them are tech giants. My total earnings are -300 USD and 5 years of development time.


What is your project?


It's Olric: https://github.com/buraksezer/olric. Publicly speaking about the companies may not be a good idea but you can dig into the issues, pull requests, and Discord channel if you are curious.


Thank you, Jens!


I don't know the Discord case but Olric implements an append-only log file indexed with a built-in map(uint64 > uint64) to store data.



Ah, as I understood it the Discord issues only shows up when you do a large long term map(? -> object) but maps with primitive values don't trigger it.
