Ask HN: How Can I Make My Front End React to Database Changes in Real-Time?
I'm interested in this problem also!
I think there is a large overlap with projects that market/focus on offline-first experiences.
AFAIK this problem can be solved by:
1) Considering a client-side copy of the database that gets synced with the remote DB. This is an approach [PowerSync](https://www.powersync.com/) and [ElectricSql](https://electric-sql.com/) and [rxdb](https://rxdb.info/) take!

Cloudflare acquires PartyKit to allow developers to build real-time multi-user
Yeah I agree with it being an exaggeration. They are certainly riding the admittedly dated perception that realtime is so hard it's only available to the Googles and Figmas. But there's now some amazing open source solutions available like Y.js and ElectricSQL[1]. The barrier has certainly come down.

PostgreSQL 16 Bi-Directional Logical Replication
https://github.com/electric-sql/electric :
> ElectricSQL is a local-first software platform that makes it easy to develop high-quality, modern apps with instant reactivity, realtime multi-user collaboration and conflict-free offline support.
> Local-first is a new development paradigm where your app code talks directly to an embedded local database and data syncs in the background via active-active database replication. Because the app code talks directly to a local database, apps feel instant. Because data syncs in the background via active-active replication it naturally supports multi-user collaboration and conflict-free offline

Show HN: PowerSync – Bi-directional Postgres<>SQLite sync for offline-first apps
Yup, this is correct.
We have had some requests / discussions around adding hooks to the sync service that will support custom logic on the write path (as per https://github.com/electric-sql/electric/discussions/565). This seems like a good idea but they don't exist yet.

Rule of Thumb: Anything that looks fancy is not worth you time
- Ads with Psychological tricks
Truly good websites have around 2 facts per 10 word sentence, and get instantly to the chase. Also: good websites give you the names of all their competitors/alternative websites before showing their own stuff, and give you further reading.
Right now the world of technology is supposedly more innovative than ever, but somehow Wikipedia (https://www.wikipedia.org/) and Search Hackernews (https://hn.algolia.com/) beat billion dollar search engines.
Articles written decades ago are still unsurpassed in terms of quality and ease of understanding, but the best modern websites can do is textbook explanations. It is time society graduates from boilerplate buzzword textbook culture.
Now the gems of the internet are slowly being buried beneath mountains of trash.
If something sounds boilerplate it isn't good enough.
Don't bother saying something that has been said before, and better.

What makes a translation great
>for more detail: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...
Oh, I see. We actually discussed Pound about four years ago - just a little back and forth about the ABC of Reading: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24196681
>What's your explanation of why Pound went Fascist?
I'm not sure I particularly have one; I haven't read any of his longer political or cultural (i.e. non-literary) works. I just think it's silly to correlate an approach to translation that you dislike with fascism. Especially as I'm not sure it even makes sense on its own terms: I can only read your comment as 'lazy translator? Figures that he would be a fascist', but if I imagine the type of translation a fascist would approve of, the approach I picture is fastidious, fussy, concerned with fidelity to the point of stickler-ishness. (Isn't that from where we get 'grammar nazi'?)
And oh, well, since you ask I'll take a shy at it: my vague sense is that he became fascist because saw a society in decline due to it becoming more and more a sham society: opulence without virtue, power without vigour, money no longer tied to actually existing goods. (Of course, all of this shades easily into antisemitism.) He saw fascism as the answer; It's easier to see in retrospect that it wasn't.

Zed Decoded: Linux When? – Zed Blog
"multiplayer notepad" goes back 15 years at least - https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu... notepad&sort=byDate&type=comment
it was used back with a popular website which opened a text document and anyone viewing could type, but I can't remember the name. That became a thing in Google Docs, Microsoft Office, Floobits, and lots of self-hosted and cloned sites.

Ok, but please don't post unsubstantive comments to Hacker News.
I understand the reason for repeating these sentiments—it's the same reason why they get upvoted to the top of threads*—but repetition of this kind is what we're most trying to avoid here.

yeah there are only three stories coming up from the site search

only one is semanthically correct, the other pick up the wrong version of clustering (i.e. k-means instead of multi master writes)
but yeah if one doesn't test the hard cases, how does one know it preserves semantics :D
