Ran this through few AI checkers and they all flagged this as highly likely written by AI. Surprised to see it passed the sniff test for users on HN enough so to make it to the front page.

Sure AI gen can be hard to detect but for the most common models it’s easy to detect. I would hope HN has a way in the future to filter out clear AI generated blogs. HN has been an oasis to get away from bot spam and AI slop.

+1 for rejecting anything that doesn’t pass a set of AI tests. I’ll take false positives to keep HN alive.

Your cookie banner was the worst I’ve ever seen on any site. It has 100s of ad venders.

Im struggling with this once I reach the point I can release a project. It’s a sort of writers block I guess.

I use Django and did a deep dive into py03 the other month seems straightforward to use.

What use cases with Django would you say it makes sense to reach for?

I picked up Django as my web server of choice this year and found the same delightful to work with. Given I generate content outside of the django app I had to roll my own data seeder.

It’s actually quite straightforward using CSVs and models to load each row in.

Can see it getting complex once I need to seed a large dataset or with loads of relationships. Look forward to seeing an official 3rd party app that takes away the complexity from my code base for seeding.

I've been using django-seed and it's fine. The API is a little confusing, it hasn't been updated in years and there are some sharp edges (e.g. auto-M2M2M).

Yes, to your point, it would be great to see the jazzband project adopt/anoint it or another solution.

I am a huge fan of using Stuctured Output to extract data.

Huge benefit that you can lock down model performance with as you fine-tune your prompt or extend out use cases.

I wrote about it here on my blog where i replaced a project’s prompt with Structured Output using Pydantic models https://amberwilliams.io/blogs/474b0361-cbc1-4fa5-b047-c042f...

If you’re using allauth why use Authentik vs a database+backups?

While incredible sounding to never use a mobile phone I find it hard to believe given societal restraints. It’s more common than no that homeless people have a cellphone, at least in westernized countries. This is because phones are seen as a basic need.

How is it possible you could make by as a working professional without ever using a mobile phone?

If Apple would play nice with PWAs we could effectively use that for 90% of apps.

…But then that would mean they can’t take a chunk of companies’ profits so not likely to happen anytime soon
