"Useless Ruby sugar": Pattern matching (Pt. 1)
I don't have an Elixir background, but I absolutely utilize pattern matching in my Ruby code bases:
- https://github.com/keygen-sh/typed_params/blob/4e4982b7d2b26...
- https://github.com/keygen-sh/typed_params/blob/4e4982b7d2b26...
- https://github.com/keygen-sh/keygen-api/blob/master/app/migr...
- https://github.com/keygen-sh/keygen-api/blob/36cd61db143cc1c...
- https://github.com/keygen-sh/typed_params/blob/4e4982b7d2b26...
I love it. I want even more pattern matching too, like with defp: https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19764.

I don’t buy “duplication is cheaper than the wrong abstraction” (2021)
Honestly, I don't have many resources to provide. I read a lot of policy tests via GitHub search (e.g. path:spec/policies/*/*.rb), but couldn't find anything that looked like what I wanted. I wrote the DSL as-needed in order to fully test my app's authz while migrating from Pundit to ActionPolicy.
It's not the prettiest when you actually look beneath the covers [0], but it does what I wanted -- provides a way to write exhaustive authz tests. Without the DSL, I probably wouldn't have written. The PR for said migration was massive [1], and was a precursor to going open source [2].

Keygen: a software licensing and distribution API
And not at all set on WorkOS. It just looked like the easiest way to set up SSO last time I researched the topic. Feel free to comment on the issue with any recommendations.

Introducing New Heroku Postgres Plans
Since when can you run heroku pg:upgrade to switch database tiers? I was following an upgrade sequence I put together over the years [^0], but I guess Heroku automated this at some point? What would be really funny is if this had been possible all long...

NPM won't publish packages containing the word keygen
I run a business called Keygen [^0], and own the @keygen namespace on npm. We’re working on a Node SDK, so this isn’t good to hear. I’ll open up a discussion with them and see what we can do.

Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?
(1) Zulip Chat - https://zulip.com/ - seems to be reasonably popular, but more people should know about it
I’ve been using it for over 5 years now [1], and it’s as good as ever. It’s way faster than any other chat app I’ve used. It has a good UI and conversation model. It has a simple and functional API that lets me curl threads and write blog posts based on them.
(only problem is that I Ctrl-+ in my browser to make the font bigger – I think it’s too dense for most people)
(2) re2c regex to state machine compiler - https://re2c.org
A gem from the 90’s, which people have done a great job maintaining and improving (getting Go and Rust target support in the last few years). I started using it in 2016, and used for a new program a few months ago. I came to the conclusion that it should have been built into C, because C has shitty string processing – and Ken Thompson both invented C AND brought regular languages to computing !!
In comparison, treesitter lexers are very low level, fiddly, and error prone. I recently saw dozens of ad hoc fixes to the tree-sitter-bash lexer, which is unsurprising if you look at the structure of the code (manually crawling through backslashes and braces in C).
https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-bash/blob/master/...
These fixes are definitely appreciated, but I think it indicates a problem with the model itself.

Debate Land Beta 0.2 is out!
A few more truly in the vibe of open source projects not advertising their hosting providers: https://plane.so/ , https://element.io/ , https://www.loomio.com/ , https://zulip.com/ , and it keeps going... Very few open source projects, in the FOSS sense, are advertising their hosting provider.

All Your Licensing Are Belong to Us^W You
I was so excited to see this happen!
I'm not a customer of yours, but your blog posts inspired me a lot. Your journey through quitting caffeine is a great and heartening read.
I've got two things to say;
1) Will you consider source-availabling the web portal (app.keygen.sh) too? Some enterprises could use it for easy management/support for custoner's licenses. Although now that I think about it, it could also discourage custom, more suitable implementations for each use-case... I'm torn on this one. I would like to see it available on GitHub too just out of curiosity too. It's very beautiful.
2) For a team + customers' chat, I cannot recommend Zulip enough. It's a joy to use and has the most innovative chat system I've ever seen. https://zulip.com
I hope your business keeps prospering!
