His persistent efforts are the reason I pay for Bear Blog. I think he should fight for the chance to come out on the other side of whatever future we’re heading towards.

Lovely! I’ll give this a shot soon. Two questions: 1. Pricing - I presume y’all will eventually charge for hosting like n8n? I’m feeling a bit sheepish trying a new service without any mention of price. Even mentioning a free tier would be nice to see.

2. Any plans for integrating MCP servers? I’m looking to build a WhatsApp based Text to SQL service and this seems like a solid fit, but I’d like to use an MCP server that groks the business domain to query supabase. Any suggestions on how to pull this off?

Likewise! Really appreciate the reply and insight; I adore the alloy metaphor. I used to do a bit of blacksmithing a few years back and will def pocket this way of thinking about it.

How long have you been on your journey? I'm still wrangling the core language, particularly in regards to nested recursion. This is my first FP endeavor and feeling the drag on my brain.

I signed up for Gemini Advanced to get access to Deep Research on Feb 1st and felt on top of the world. So cool, so advanced.

Then OpenAI announced theirs on the 2nd: https://openai.com/index/introducing-deep-research/

Ethan Mollick called Google's undergraduate level and OpenAI's graduate level on the 3rd: https://www.oneusefulthing.org/p/the-end-of-search-the-begin...

And now this. I can't stop thinking about The Onion Movie's "Bates 4000" clip:

You have no idea how unfathomably timely this discovery was. Truly unreal. I've scoured the internet for a while trying to collect every dataset known to humanity about beat programming in this exact sense. Thank you.

Is it able to synthesize individual elements of a track? (kick, snare, hats, bass note in C4, etc). This might be killer for pairing with a sampler. Back in the early days of hip-hop, memory & disk limits encouraged artists to load samples that were pitched up 2x then slow back down on the device. This gave the samples a grainy quality which helped the aesthetics. With a human level of polish, I'm pretty sure the combo would be amazing.

Love how the frame switched back to the iPhone 4's style. Feels retro and futuristic at the same time.

This is why I'm obsessed with HN. Thank you so much for linking this, it's exactly what I've been hoping someone would make!

Resist the urge to try every single new framework/technology just because it's popular. I wasted far too much time trying to always use the latest and greatest when MySQL and Python cover 99% of all the use cases I'd ever need.

I would simply familiarize with just the basics because you don't have to go much further than that to make use of it for research purposes. My usual process involves breaking the process down into multiple stages (cleansing, conformance, testing, reporting), including a data dir, and finally creating a dockerfile that simply adds the data/source to a simple hierarchy and includes all dependencies. As long as you know how to build a dockerfile, you're golden. You can then upload the image to dockerhub, and have somebody else pull the image and run it to reproduce your entire environment. Helps a ton for online DS courses and MOOCs.
