Assuming US gallons, $8/US gallon works out as £1.60/litre. That sounds about right for current UK prices, depending on what and where you're buying it. (Yes, fuel is expensive here compared to the US; that's largely down to fuel duty and taxes.)
If you wish to divert from the discussion of whether free and fair elections is still possible in the USA, and would rather enter the meta-discussion, I'll bite, and cite Wikipedia:
> Godwin's law can be applied mistakenly or abused as a distraction, a diversion, or even censorship, when miscasting an opponent's argument as hyperbole even when the comparison made by the argument is appropriate.
I wonder if Godwins law and such did more harm than good in the end? I mean: yes, Hitler was a terrible person and Holocaust was horrible, but, by putting so much effort into convincing everyone that Hitler and Holocaust were so unique things in the history of mankind you’re basically creating a blind spot, where the resurgence of fascism goes unnoticed because everyone thinks “it can’t as bad as Hitler and the Nazis, right?”
Ahh, so this is how you stifle the warnings and discontent with the fascist capture of the government? The evidence doesn't matter as long as it's possible to derail the discussion?
Let me guess, similarly you apply "conspiracy theory" to anything you want to kneecap, is that right?
Turned out they just were the selfish assholes everyone always said they were, with everything they say just being poor attempts at rationalization of their deep lack of morals, including their self-serving primitive religion.
Are we essentially looking at the infrastructure for the first mass prompt injection-based worm? It seems like a perfect storm for a malicious skill to execute a curl | bash and wipe thousands of agent-connected nodes off the grid.
It could absolutely be a breeding ground for worms but it could also become the first place we learn how agent-to-agent security actually breaks in the wild
You really picked a wrong target for your ridiculous attacks. 2swap is a mathematical artist, not Khan Academy. There's plenty of boring lectures on youtube already on every topic.
What an annoying comment to read about such an incredible video. Both me and my son enjoyed it a lot. It's an educational art piece with beautiful and insightful visualizations.
Seriously, what's incredible about it? I know it's not AI, and I admittedly did not watch the whole thing, but from what I saw, there is absolutely no element of that video that couldn't be auto-generated at this point.
Zod's validation errors are awful, the json schema it generates for LLM is ugly and and often confusing, the types structures Zod creates are often unintelligible in the and there's even no good way to pretty print a schema when you're debugging. Things are even worse if you're stuck with zod/v3
None of this makes a lot of sense. Validation errors are largely irrelevant for LLMs and they can understand them just fine. The type structure looks good for LLMs. You can definitely pretty print a schema at runtime.
The whole thing Trump and his minions are doing is so very reminiscent of what was happening in Russia during its turn to fascism. Similarities go to such an extreme degree across the board that I now feel there has to be at least a consultant from Moscow working with the current admin, if not full blown department at the FSB. Blatant lying, complete disregard of any laws, open rejection of norms and mockery of process, justification of extreme cruelty
, obsession with some made up concept of “liberals”, and blaming everything on the predecessors (Putin is still trying to blame all the problems on the collapse of the Soviet Union).
I sincerely hope that people of the United States reject being treated like mindless cattle and choose freedom instead of what appears to be a complete and utter national-fascist tyranny.
Really loving Bun these days. Was really pleasantly surprised using their shell scripting API in typescript - single file, shebang line, straightforward DSL, support for piping data here and there.
Really, really nice and ergonomic. Made a few utility scripts today and enjoyed it much better than bash.
It is also my first choice now. Especially due to built in SQLite support. Also recently needed to write a simple script to dump some data to S3. Found out that bun has built in s3 client too...
I use Bun for many package.json projects, but for shell scripting specifically, I find that Deno is a better choice because you can use dependencies with just import statements via NPM or JSR.
#!/usr/bin/env -S deno run
import { z } from "npm:zod";
import { Webview } from "jsr:@webview/webview";
I just learned that Bun supports "autoimports" similar to the above.
> If no node_modules directory is found in the working directory or higher, Bun will abandon Node.js-style module resolution in favor of the Bun module resolution algorithm.
> Under Bun-style module resolution, all imported packages are auto-installed on the fly into a global module cache during execution (the same cache used by bun install).
