19 needs clustered under "Dev tools & infra" — scattered threads about the same pain, side by side, so you can compare angles.
I pay for JetBrains, Creative cloud, chatGpt, figma, and mid journey… Are there any must have dev productivity tools?
Why there is no P2P protocol for mass live stream content in decent quality?… i cant find anything.
The most important features are the ability to quickly and reliably deliver app updates over one year, safety, affordability.
RDP sends draw commands… the default way on MacOS and Linux is VNC which sends all the pixels. I've noticed for years…
Functionally, Cursor is doing a good job… The problem is visual design. No matter how detailed I make the prompt.
Think google comments connected to Inspect Element in chrome that can be shared with an organization.
I'm working on an embedded C project with a complicated network of structures, pointers and 'objects' — part legacy, part written by someone else. I want to understand the codebase's structure.
I've a few services that currently use a chat service and a CLI client to generically send notifications from various apps. I'd like something similar without being tied to a chat client — just native web browsers. Something self-hosted, running behind nginx.
I manage a single Linux VPS (Ubuntu) and I am currently juggling several separate tools: SSH to run commands, upload/download over SFTP, and manage MySQL and PostgreSQL (queries, browsing tables, quick backups).
dig is the standard DNS query tool, but it can't enumerate a domain's subdomains — each one must be queried explicitly.
Sharing links to internal services (e.g. http://10.8.39.29:7830/) in Slack triggers a 'make sure you trust this link' dialog every single time — pure friction for teams living in internal tools.
We are a subsidiary and copy via ODBC part of a big database from our parent company onto our own servers. The old software we are using is at the end of its life-cycle; it was never the best and we built a lot of workarounds within and around it.
I don't want a whitespace change to replace the whole line, and commenting a line shouldn't count as a rewrite either — so I can track the code that actually stayed the same.
Obtainium installs and updates apps straight from their releases pages and notifies on new versions — just add a URI. Does a desktop-OS equivalent exist?
I'm trying to incorporate AI code tools into my flow, but my issue is that I spend a lot of time code reviewing AI. I wanted to find an AI tool that helps me code review better — look at a diff and present it to me in a way that makes it easy to understand.
I play guitar at folk clubs and camps. The problem is 'knowing what you know'. Back in the 2000s I came up with a list view with 2 lines per entry in Access 97: title and key on the first line, lyric snippet on the second. Modern database front-ends only give one line.
Our system: SQL backend, Access frontend with forms, datasheets and reports. It works but the limitations compound yearly — we need a new frontend.
Local Python project, every file has docstrings. Is there a tool to generate static HTML docs from them? Sphinx seems like overkill.
To decide when to buy a new computer, I'd love minimal historical performance data — a report like '2020-01-01: response time: 0.01s' over the years.
