Such an inspiring clip from Kelsey Heightower. Make good shit that inspires people rather than fake ppts of how things could be.

text-wrap: pretty;
text-wrap: balance

I want to like jq, but I think Simon is selling me on sqlite, maybe its just me but this looks readable, hackable, editable, memorizable. Everytime I try jq, and its 5 minutes fussing with it just to get the most basic thing to work. I know enough sql out of the gate to make this work off the top of my head
curl https://thoughts.waylonwalker.com/posts/ | sqlite-utils memory - 'select title, message from stdin where stdin.tags like "%python%"' | jq

A nice cheat sheet for jq. jq looks so nice, but it so quickly gets overwhelming on how to select what you want. I was able to make a jq contains query.
curl https://thoughts.waylonwalker.com/posts/ | jq '.[] | select(.title | contains("python"))'
