Five star episode with Jarod and Adam shootin the crap.

The massive Cease and Desist

Sucks that the guest had to back out, what a wild world 2024 is. Filled with license and pricing changes.

From Vim to Zed

You can give k3s an install channel to install stable, latest, or specific versions like 1.26. This is handy to make sure that you install the same version on all of your workers.

Damn 2024 is such a shit show, now Devin seems to be out as a complete scam. It’s really teaching us to have skepticism for what you find on the internet. Turns out that when broken down frame by frame much of the description in the video was a straight up lie. Personally it seemed quite plausible that it was percentage points better than the competition, but I was not holding my breath for it to be a hands off engineer.

I learned about the sqlite_master table from this stack overflow answer. This helps make a lot of sense to how sqlite works. The master table contains all the sqlite objects and the sql to create them.

The .tables, and .schema “helper” functions don’t look into ATTACHed databases: they just query the SQLITE_MASTER table for the “main” database. Consequently, if you used

This is a cool snapshot testing tool that automatically creates, and updates test values for you.

Starting with some test code.

from inline_snapshot import snapshot def something(): return 1548 * 18489 def test_something(): assert something() == snapshot()

now if I run pytest my tests will fail because my assert will fail, but if I run pytest --inline-snapshot=create it will fill out my snapshot values and the file will then look like this.

Redka a sick new redis compatable api, that uses sqlite as its backend datastore. It feels lightweight to use as it is a single small binary. Data does not have to fit into memory as it uses sqlite to store data.

Check your system to see if you are vulnerable to the xz backdoor.

I found this line most pertanent to me.

The xz packages prior to version 5.6.1-2 (specifically 5.6.0-1 and 5.6.1-1) contain this backdoor.

Also it appears that arch is not vulnerable as it does not directly link openssh to liblzma, so the known attack vecotor is not possible. read to the end of the linked article for more.

Install it

{ "ThePrimeagen/harpoon", branch = "harpoon2", dependencies = { "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim" }, config = function() require("waylonwalker.plugins.harpoon").setup() end, },

I found this statement quite intriguing.

multi-cursors are just macros.

This is quite a philisophical video and mostly prime talking about the things that make vim vim, and what prime needs in and editor vs what he can live without.

This is pretty sick, I wanted this early on when I was making lockhart. I wanted to do the git hook thing but could not figure it out and did not know that prepare-commit-msg was a hook that I could use.

Git Hooked Then I remembered! Git hooks! Lol. Why would I have that in my brain - who knows!

I asked claude again, and they whipped up a simple script that would act as a hook that triggers with the prepare-commit-msg event.

This is awesome, cuz if you want to add a git message, you can skip the hook. But if you are lazy, you exclude the message and it will call the LLM.

Its sad that this is not the accepted answer.

This is how you fix the stupid corner section of a double scroll bar being white on a dark theme site.

::-webkit-scrollbar-corner { background: rgba(0,0,0,0); }

The question included an example image where you can see white squares everywhere there are horizontal and vertical scroll bars.

This is an interesting problem. I want to make a solution for this on htmx-patterns. I would make user specific routes with an hx-get rather than serving the whole page, serve a partial with hx-oobs to fill in user specific data with a no cache on the cdn level.

So cool to see ROX build this over the course of a day.

Damn this button had me stuck for way too long. It definitely looks like a button once I see it, but I don’t recall coming into contact with many buttons in the game, I tried to set it ablaze, pull it, fly it, nothing.

YouTube makes finding rss feeds way too hard. Hats off to them for still supporting it, allowing you to find content outside the algorithm, and consuming content you asked for. But i had no idea you had to search the source code to get it.

Another interesting option for slow count queries in sqlite.

If you haven’t DELETEd any records, doing:

Very interesting article by Sylvain, suggested by Simon Willison.

Definitely some things that I want to come back and try later on.

Here is the TLDR of the whole post

PRAGMA journal_mode = WAL; PRAGMA busy_timeout = 5000; PRAGMA synchronous = NORMAL; PRAGMA cache_size = 1000000000; PRAGMA foreign_keys = true; PRAGMA temp_store = memory;

This is interesting, and something I need to consider. I definitely have an application with slow count queries. I am not sure how to make it better as its not a full count(*) so a count table doesn’t work, nor does counting by index.

Inspiring story transitioning into tech from nursing. I also came to tech through a set of circumstances that made it difficult for me to excel at my current job. Looking back it is something that I was always interested in and I was just unsure how to get in, I am so glad that I figured it out, it has been such a great benefit to my family.

I really enjoyed listening to trshpuppy’s journey in through building projects, and choosing tech not based on what she wanted to learn, but what fit the project the best.
