Ming's Spell Compendium #2 -- You Terrifying Upright Apes Are Underestimating Yourselves

This is a cultural adaptation — not a literal translation — of the original Chinese article. Some Chinese cultural references have been swapped for Western equivalents that hit the same emotional note. Previously on… Ming’s Spell Compendium #1 – One Year of Vibe Coding: A Cold Hard Look Foreword Humans, you’re selling yourselves short. How Much Can AI Amplify You? Last year (2024), my working hypothesis was: even with AI, you can’t dramatically exceed the user’s own ability. If AI’s training data represents the sum total of human knowledge, then the current crop of agentic evangelists would have you believe that professional expertise has become a worthless commodity in this era — because AI can write code like Linus, write novels like Hemingway, etc. ...

明系魔法吟唱之2 -- 恐怖直立猿们,你们低估了自己的智慧

英文文化适配版: You Terrifying Upright Apes Are Underestimating Yourselves (English cultural adaptation) 书接上回: 明系魔法吟唱之1 – Vibe Coding 一年实践后的冷思考 前言 人类,你们过于低估自己了。 AI 能放大你多少? 去年(2024)我有个判断是,即便有 AI,也不能大幅超越使用者的能力。如果 AI 的训练知识是全人类知识的总集,现在 agentic 导师们宣传的是在这个时代专业技能变成了唾手可得的不值钱的东西,理由是 AI 可以模仿 Linus 来写代码,也可以模仿大文豪作家写小说,等等。 ...

Ming's Spell Compendium #1 -- One Year of Vibe Coding: A Cold Hard Look

This is a cultural adaptation — not a literal translation — of the original Chinese article. Some Chinese cultural references have been swapped for Western equivalents that hit the same emotional note. Foreword Over the past year I’ve burned through more than $10,000 in API tokens across Google, Anthropic, and OpenAI. So everything in this article is based on hands-on experience with the strongest models available — Opus 4.6, Codex-5.3-xhigh, Gemini 3 Pro — used without budget constraints. ...

Improving the Display of Data Lists: Designing a Real-Time Event Subscription Architecture

Many data systems use polling refresh to display lists, which can cause a delay in updating content status and cannot immediately provide feedback to users on the page. Shortening the refresh time interval on the client side can lead to an excessive load on the server, which should be avoided. To solve this problem, this article proposes an event subscription mechanism. This mechanism provides real-time updates to the client, eliminating the need for polling refresh and improving the user experience. ...

Implementing Version Management of File Trees in PostgreSQL

Overview In the previous post, we discussed how to implement a file tree in PostgreSQL using ltree. Now, let’s talk about how to integrate version control management for the file tree. Version control is a process for managing changes made to a file tree over time. This allows for the tracking of its history and the ability to revert to previous versions, making it an essential tool for file management. With version control, users have access to the most up-to-date version of a file, and changes are tracked and documented in a systematic manner. This ensures that there is a clear record of what has been done, making it much easier to manage files and their versions. ...

Implement the file tree in PostgreSQL using ltree

Background A file tree is a hierarchical structure used to organize files and directories on a computer. It allows users to easily navigate and access their files and folders, and is commonly used in operating systems and file management software. But implementing file trees in traditional RDBMS like MySQL can be a challenge due to the lack of support for hierarchical data structures. However, there are workarounds such as using nested sets or materialized path approaches. Alternatively, you could consider using NoSQL databases like MongoDB or document-oriented databases like Couchbase, which have built-in support for hierarchical data structures. ...
