Bummed. Vercel is not a great steward of open source. Happy that Bereket got an exit, though.

Is there a way to pair this with an existing (Postgres) database?

This looks like a really nice collection of books. Thanks for sharing!

They offer most models from the large AI players (anthropic, openai, mistral, meta, grok, google, deepseek)

Take a look at Electric SQL: https://electric-sql.com/

This looks great! Is there a way to sync with an api? For instance, my site currently has a rest based api with a non-Postgres backed db but I’d like to add offline, sync, real-time capabilities. Is there an option to sync the updates outside of the Postgres store?

How do you manage cron jobs with a setup like that? Does each lambda pull down its own SQLite db, write changes, and then litestream replicates the changes to the web and other lambda instances?

Similar scenario for multiple web nodes and saving data. Also, do you use sticky sessions so that any routes that write to a db also read from the same node/db so you don’t have to wait for litestream?

What do you do for BI? Are you able to ETL the data from sqlite to a warehouse? If so, what does that look like?

Curious what tool(s) you use to format sql?

For what it’s worth, mac has [similar shortcuts for moving around/selecting text in a document](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201236).

I’d add [supabase](https://supabase.com/) to the list as well. They have some compelling hosted Postgres options.

We use sentry for front end errors & performance and new relic for backend. Since our backend is container based and auto scales, new relic is virtually unused by our team. Sentry, however, shows us more from our user’s perspective and is more useful by our team. Both were/are pretty easy to get started with. Both update on a reasonable cadence and don’t have a ton of extra dependencies to worry about.

I use slack. I setup some private channels in slack and subscribe to various feeds in each channel.

Terraform as a language is a bit clunky and feels not quite complete. For example, to accomplish if/else logic, you have to hack something like: `count = var.is_foo ? 1 : 0`

More than the language syntax, getting any response from the hashicorp team on their official providers is like rolling the dice. If your bug or feature pr is a bit on the fringes and not in their sights, it can sit for months/years without traction or even a non-automated response. With just the aws provider, there are over 3000 issues and nearly 400 open PRs. That team is understaffed or mismanaged. It has gotten marginally better over the last year or so, but generally speaking, Hashicorp doesn’t seem to care while they’re pouring all efforts into their own cloud. 1. https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws/issues/1... 2. https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws/issues/6... 3. https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws/issues?q...
