What it does

Deadpipe introduces dead-man’s-switch monitoring for data pipelines. Pipelines send one heartbeat when they finish. No heartbeat means failure. No polling, agents, or complex setup. One-line SDKs auto-register pipelines and never break jobs. Deadpipe adds automatic data freshness scoring to detect staleness before data is broken. It also unifies pipeline monitoring with frontend API, performance, and Web Vitals monitoring in one low-cost product.

    Dead man's switch without reliance on your infra2024 · github.com · ▲139

    I wrote this Go project to implement a dead man’s switch that didn’t rely on cron jobs, timers, databases, etc on the infra it runs on. Deadcheck integrates to PagerDuty and keeps a long running incident snoozed until expected check-in times where it’ll alert unless a check-in occurs.

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
