    Another alternative I've used is [Another Redis Desktop Manager](https://github.com/qishibo/AnotherRedisDesktopManager). It handles JSON values much better than Redis Insight in my experience.

  • infer

    A static analyzer for Java, C, C++, and Objective-C

  • Project mention: An Introduction to Temporal Logic (With Applications to Concurrency Problems) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-22

    I think most development occurs on problems that can't be formally modeled anyway. Most developers work on things like, "can you add this feature to the e-commerce site? And can the pop-up be blue?" which isn't really model-able.

    But that's not to say that formal methods are useless! We can still prove some interesting aspects of programs -- for example, that every lock that gets acquired later gets released. I think tools like Infer[0] could become common in the coming years.

  • Project mention: Create, Push, and Present Any View Controller in 1 LOC using Metaprogramming | dev.to | 2023-06-18

    It is important to say that there is an elegant solution to the resource consistency problem that we haven’t adapted yet. Instead of testing raw values of UIStoryboard.Name cases, we could just generate the UIStoryboard.Name enum. Please refer to SwiftGen for the details.

  • Gitbucket

  • Project mention: Windows 11 now comes with its own adware | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-24

    Regarding the stability issue on a dev machine - you may be interested in playing with one of the immutable-os distros, such as SilverBlue (fedora based).

    The high-level take-away is you can't break your actual OS since it's root filesystem is read-only, and you use "pet" containers (on docker, podman, whatever) to do your work in. Applications are either sandboxed via Flatpak, or installed/run inside your pet containers. If your pet container dies, you cry about it for a moment, and when you're ready you get a new one - your actual os and other containers remain unaffected.

    I use distrobox[1] to create/run the pet containers.

  • Project mention: Is Internet facing Kestrel in dotnet 7.0+ safe? | /r/dotnet | 2023-05-24

    Adding to the other answers here, you might find some useful functionality in YARP if you want a pure .NET reverse proxy. Like Kestrel, Microsoft dogfoods YARP in Azure.

  • cli

    the package manager for JavaScript (by npm)

  • Project mention: 'everything' blocks devs from removing their own NPM packages | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-04

    Because sometimes I make idiotic mistakes and I really don't want that embarrassing stuff out there where people can see. I ran head first into an npm bug once when I tried to symlink the README file which resulted in the thing getting published without a README.

    https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/6746

    Embarrassing. And then they slapped me with a stupid 24 hour count down on top of it. I seriously hate this thing.
