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).
I've been getting lots of scam calls lately, especially AI voice generated once, and there was one particularly annoying. Very persistent call about being approved for some loan, no reference to any particulars, all very vague, and I kept ignoring. In my mind I had no doubt it was a scam. Well, long and boring story short, now I have a missed payment on my credit report for my new HVAC system..
I find it completely acceptable to outsource some of my thinking and tasks to LLMs. Not everything is my primary area of focus or expertise, and not all questions are equally important. For example, I could buy any random toaster oven, or I can kick off a deep research to pick a best toaster by my criteria and in 5 minutes I’ll have a much better context for this decision, without having to switch my mind from my primary objectives. I don’t want to think about toasters.
Is it time to move away from directly elected representative toward topic-specific randomly pick representative? Would this help prevent operation to influenced opinion?
I believe that if you truly accept what Hemingway said, that writing is rewriting, you get less attached to the idea of reaching the best design on the first try, and feel better when starting with a suboptimal solution.
Of course this sometimes conflicts with organizational pressures, where that quick and dirty solution may be deemed as enough by some and you won't get to finish with the proper design. For me the trick is to consider first version just an internal stage of work on a feature, not even communicated outwards most of the times, until the appropriate design is reached.
