Ask HN: Pipes in Programming Languages

Hacker News - Sun, 04/13/2025 - 11:59am

Two questions really.

What programming languages use the pipe operator? I'm only really aware of shell scripting and R that use it.

Why don't more programming languages use the pipe operator? I write a lot of bash, powershell, and recently Nushell. I think piping things together is really powerful. There must be reasons why it's not in languages like python etc.

I’m Jason, a solo maker of Portix – an AI toolkit that includes headshot generation, photo filters, and face-swap tools.

This tool was born out of my need to create studio-quality avatars without a photoshoot. Built for creators, marketers, and remote teams.

Would love your feedback! Demo: https://ai-headshot-generator.org

Show HN: Chat with AI Models on an Infinite Canvas

Hacker News - Sun, 04/13/2025 - 11:06am

RabbitHoles AI is a canvas-first node-based chat app to chat with AI models. I built this app for myself. Linear chat UX like Chatgpt is very limiting when you want to have any deep explorative conversations. I use RabbitHoles AI for brainstorming, deep learning, and copywriting.

Being able to branch and go freely have long conversations, without losing context is a game changer.

- Local first desktop app - Bring your own keys - All major AI providers supported. - Add your own custom openai compatible providers, and models - Local Ollama Models supported. - Life time deal (limited time)

Feedback appreciated :)

Ask HN: SPA vs. SSR in 2024?

Hacker News - Sun, 04/13/2025 - 11:06am

I'm working on a new project that has a reasonable level of content/processing done on the backend but nothing too heavy. My default approach would be a simple SPA served statically with a CRUD backend, probably fastapi and svelte. However, I've heard lots of people extoll the advantages of more SSR due to better edge compute technologies. Lots of people seem predisposed to throw their backend on cloudflare workers or something and handle it there. What are y'all's experiences between the two?

It seems marginally more convenient for a large team to have a unified front/backend and people seem to like sveltekit, but it doesn't personally bug me to have the two separated. I could also see advantages to typescript/prisma/zod for instance over sqlalchemy and pydantic; pydantic improves python a bit along with mypy/pyright but typign is still very much hacked-in. It also seems like I'd increase my hosting bill a bit, both because SSR shifts work to the server and because workers or similar services generally have markups over a VPS. Thanks :)
