Ironic. Still quite an adventure. Thanks for sharing!

I read the entire post, very well written, and didn't suffer from that impression that it was written by an LLM

yde_java | 5 months ago | on: Pairing with Claude Code to rebuild my startup's website

Talking about coding websites: I'm a seasoned dev who loves to be in control of the website code, but hates debugging nitty gritty layouting issues, which steal tons of time and attention. I want to progress fast building great landing websites for my tech products, with the same speed that I code the products themselves. What stacks and LLM tools (if any) do you recommend that help writing great looking websites with great SEO support... fast?

yde_java | 8 months ago | on: Dict Unpacking in Python

I use the Python package 'sorcery' [0] in all my production services.

It gives dict unpacking but also a shorthand dict creation like this:

    from sorcery import dict_of, unpack_keys
    a, b = unpack_keys({'a': 1, 'b': 42})
    assert a == 1
    assert b == 42
    assert dict_of(a, b) == {'a': 1, 'b': 42}

What problem does that solve? Is it for developing and testing MCP servers locally before sharing/publishing them?

Before coding on the actual problem I usually start with a tiny refactoring of something that's related. That's my warming up sports before tackling the actual exercise. Works 100% for me.
