This was a fun rabbit hole indeed!
We recently added gcc to molab containers for Cython support, but it turns out that technically ... you could also use Zig! It is available via pypi!
That's an interesting unlock! Feel free to read the nerdsnipe here:

It’s quite common really. All the attendees go in a lone and off duty cops provide the smooth passage by blocking off intersections on the way.
Most often it is just a regular persons funeral.
P Code clearly.
Banger Bingo Card. Gonna prime the kid with this 🤣
Doubt.
Many ask themselves, «Why would I use a semantic layer? How to build one?».
But a better question is: How many times have you implemented the same revenue calculation differently across your company's dashboards, reports, and apps? This is why semantic layers exist.
Prompt engineering is knowing the correct answer and trying to get the chatbot to produce it.
I had never seen anyone use PHP for build scripts.. There is always a first: Pluto language github.com/PlutoLang/Pl... (a Lua++ language, which I discovered on agents.md)
I already use water pik and wondering if I’m missing something
mnemonic to remember Dostoevsky's spelling: he has a toe.
I do appreciate Zed's autocompletion many times, but it is very intrusive when editing plain text. I need to find out keyboard shortcut that can turn off LLM-assisted autocomplete for the current buffer.
A curious thing is happening with my @zed.dev usage.. I am finding the LLM autocompletion extremely annoying.
This is leading to me opening up folders using Sublime Text instead.
very mild sir, very mild.
what you want to become good at, you keep it in front of you.

Read how the ridiculous t-shirt came to be :D

That's the kind eclectic early learning material you see in the wild
Ozzy Osbourne died today. He was a big part of my college years music.
I found out because Kid#1 messaged to tell me. Even she knew :|
importantly, zed does not respect the new line i have between the two tags, and smushes them into one line. most annoying.
On save in Sublime vs on save in @zed.dev .. sometime the line breaks inside the endblock end up causing the template to break.
Guy* that uses Claude just for aesthetic reasons. typography and design so much better than "we just slapped on bootstrap" (openai, gemini .. i'm looking at you)
*Not me. I should go back just for this reason.
Reminded after seeing this: claude.ai/share/1217b4...
'@zed.dev is unusable because it screws up @djangoproject.com templates.
Back to SublimeHQ, which surprised me today with a "LICENSE UPGRADE REQUIRED". you got me.
More generally, locally running LLM apps.
I'll be surprised if this doesn't exist already:
Daily summary of all substack/blog/subscriptions generated locally using a model running on your machine via say ollama etc.
ideally this also should capture the feedback in terms of "i liked "XYZ's post", and use that to float up articles..
and also this is how I found out B Sarojadevi passed away :(
She was "one of our own", as in she was our part of Old Mysore as my grandfather often pointed out.
Two things from the QT'd post by @mitsuhiko.at
1. Wow! there is a Python documentary coming: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqBq...
2. "Consider this: I can name the person who brought me into Python.". So can I! it was @roshanrevankar.com :D
I think this is a nice summary of vibecoding: "The future of software development might just be jazz. Everyone improvising. Nobody following the sheet music."
A lot of new programmers may not even know that there is such a thing as sheet music

Something like github.com/simonw/llm-v... by @simonwillison.net is a good start. If this can be enhanced so that the tool captures only frames on "transition", maybe just transition between slides (and not people), we will only left with identifying inserting the slides in the summary at appr locn
this is a good example of "misinformation". passing on the responsibility to faulty translation tools should not be acceptable. good on the KA gov for pushing back strongly on this.
*predicting after the next 10 years...
*(mostly wrong, i hope)
CS departments (in reduced capacity) of non-elite CS programs will continue to exist because couple CS classes will be made mandatory credits for passing a STEM degree, and they will be as popular as machine class and drawing class - which were hosanna* for Mech and Civil depts.
