Ask HN: AWS cdk, serverless setup advice

Hacker News - 4 hours 48 min ago

I'm doing this part time work with another "senior/staff" developer who got tired of writing lots of code with nodejs and decided the way to go was doubling down on aws - and the various tools provided. His new stack is as follows

- dynamodb - nodejs lambda functions - s3 - cdk to setup infra, attach lambda's to various resources

nearly all our features rely on the following "common/reuseable" existing code. This is thoroughly tested because they are reused in multiple projects. -> we have a core set of infra/lambda code that does common things like -> authorization/authentication/accounts - using auth0 behind the scenes - for user management -> billing - using a stripe setup. we have ddb table, webhooks and various lambda to support billing based on accounts above -> managing uploads - presigned and direct multipart/form-data uploads and saving metadata in dd -> creating and tracking jobs - via sqs -> have api as a service module that helps us track useage for api's being sold to public

For a typical project, we spin up the above existing infra Add custom infrastructure to do things specific to the project This typically involves -> adding an api gateway and attaching lambda handlers -> and so on.

My question is Which of you do something similar How do you organize reuseable code - do you create your own custom constructs library? Do you have one giant gateway that custom apis get attached to or you create new gateways to do whatever.

Ask HN: DMs on HN

Hacker News - 5 hours 30 min ago

HN prevents replying to posts / comments that are "too old".

This means if I have a question for a user based on a comment they wrote 2 months ago, there's no way for me to get their attention unless they have a post / comment that is not "too old".

If they don't have anything like that, I'm out of luck. If they do, I'm still breaking forum etiquette by responding to their new post / comment with something unrelated.

Has there has been discussion previously on whether DMing other HN users is a feature that the community wants?

I understand why Google ships such poor software

Hacker News - 5 hours 32 min ago

But I don't understand why it creates it.

For example its Gmail Android app. When message send fails, the message remains in Outbasket - fine - but the app presents no button to retry. OK, so perhaps the designer just forgot.

But the message display To: value is overwritten with a word in red e.g. Uploading, presumably intended as an explanation for the fail. This prevents the user determining the recipient.

So what's behind this? Did some designer really beleive overwriting the recipient name with error info was a good idea?

And this is no simple layout issue. Opening the message shows the same. And attempting to workaround using forward or reply fails - because both are broken, yielding simply a blank message.
