Handling Errors - FastAPI FastAPI framework, high performance, easy to learn, fast to code, ready for production fastapi.tiangolo.com This page shows how to customize your fastapi errors.

External Link stackoverflow.com I learned about the sqlite_master table from this stack overflow answer. This helps make a lot of sense to how sqlite works. The master table contains all the sqlite objects and the sql to create them. The.tables, and.schema “helper” functions don’t look into ATTACHed databases: they just query the SQLITE_MASTER table for the “main” database. Consequently, if you used

Arch Linux - News: The xz package has been backdoored archlinux.org Check your system to see if you are vulnerable to the xz backdoor. I found this line most pertanent to me. The xz packages prior to version 5.6.1-2 (specifically 5.6.0-1 and 5.6.1-1) contain this backdoor. Also it appears that arch is not vulnerable as it does not directly link openssh to liblzma, so the known attack vecotor is not possible. read to the end of the linked article for more.

Use an llm to automagically generate meaningful git commit messages I harper.blog This is pretty sick, I wanted this early on when I was making lockhart. I wanted to do the git hook thing but could not figure it out and did not know that was a hook that I could use. Git Hooked Then I remembered! Git hooks! Lol. Why would I have that in my brain - who knows! I asked claude again, and they whipped up a simple script that would act as a hook that triggers with the prepare-commit-msg event. This is awesome, cuz if you want to add a git message, you can skip the hook. But if you are lazy, you exclude the message and it will call the LLM. Simon Willison’s llm cli comes in clutch here, it has such a good intereface to allow a prompt to be piped in, but the system prompt be set by -s. I love hacking on projects, but often I am super bad at making commits that make sense. I completely relate to this statement, and this is why I am trying it.

Sylvain Kerkour · kerkour.com Very interesting article by Sylvain, suggested by Simon Willison. Definitely some things that I want to come back and try later on. Here is the TLDR of the whole post This is interesting, and something I need to consider. I definitely have an application with slow count queries. I am not sure how to make it better as its not a full so a count table doesn’t work, nor does counting by index. I might need to have a table of cached results, and if a write matches the counter increase it, or update all counters on write. COUNT queries are slow SQLite doesn’t keep statistics about its indexes, unlike PostgreSQL, so COUNT queries are slow, even when using a WHERE clause on an indexed field: SQLite has to scan for all the matching records. One solution is to use a trigger on INSERT and DELETE that updates a running count in a separate table then query that separate table to find the latest count.
Inspiring story transitioning into tech from nursing. I also came to tech through a set of circumstances that made it difficult for me to excel at my current job. Looking back it is something that I was always interested in and I was just unsure how to get in, I am so glad that I figured it out, it has been such a great benefit to my family. I really enjoyed listening to trshpuppy’s journey in through building projects, and choosing tech not based on what she wanted to learn, but what fit the project the best.

Great episode covering a seemingly simple topic. What I really benefitted from was hearing all the different use cases, from logging, debugging, to a/b testing, caching, and auth. I hadn’t even thought of it being applied to a router. I thought of it being applied for an entire application. This seems very useful for things like an admin router, all routes would need to have the admin role to get in.
![[None]] I’ve been using these decorators to modify the behavior of specific routes. It will do things like 404 admin only routes in a way that looks just like fastapi ’s default, or only allow certain roles into the route, or redirect unauthenticated users to login. After listening to yesterday’s syntaxfm I’m now really thinking about middleware and the benefits it might have. middleware would make it easy to apply things like admin to an entire admin router, so you wont forget it on any one admin route. It will look cleaner as the admin checker is only applied once per router, not once per route.

Joining the split keyboards club: a Moonlander story | Carlos Becker This post will describe my experience with a couple of firsts: carlosbecker.com I switched from a 60% vortex pok3r to a 40% corne June, 2021. I can relate to a lot of what Carlos talks about here. I think going from 60%-40% made my journey harder than it needed to be. There’s no going back now, but it took me a really long time to be able to hit all of the numbers and symbols, just figuring out how to do the layout was hard there’s not much space. I didn’t touch type. I never really used my pinkies, except maybe for ESC, Shift, CTRL, Backspace et al. I can relate to this, my typing habits were terrible. Shortly before going split ortho I worked on my speed with lots, and lots of practice on keybr and monkeytype. I took my speed from 35wpm to 80wpm with a few months of steady practice. This is one of the best things I did for myself. Once I got split it dropped down to single digits and slowly rose back up to 80, just barely breaking my PB on monkeytype. I still feel like I still can’t type at my previous max speed — mostly because I wasn’t used to use my pinky and used the “wrong finger” for a lot of keys, but, ne…
My workflow, part 1 | Carlos Becker I keep getting asked how my setup works, how I use tmux and nvim over ssh… all that good stuff. carlosbecker.com Carlos has a pretty sick setup here, I can relate to mostly, cept the macos part. My main critique is that I don’t think he gave window managers much chance on linux, and they just don’t work on MacOS/Windows. Most of the time I have a single, maximized window. I can relate to this. I should really make a full post about my experience with tiling window managers. TLDR, I came for tiling and I stayed for the workspaces. Multiple Displays An exception here could be streaming: having multiple displays can help preventing doxing yourself if you only share the screen of one of them. I only did stream like 3 times and that’s what I did, but I’m sure experienced streamers have better workflows (with or without multiple displays). Accurate, my home machine uses one monitor, and for work I use one monitor+laptop. I pair, screenshare, and present quite a bit at work, and its good to have one screen for sharing, and one for seeing things like the app you are sharing from (chat, cams, etc)
