@viticci looks promising but what is the privacy situation with this new tool? (remember Microsoft Rewind) and can I plugin my already installed local LLMs? it would be interesting to compare with Raycast LLM integration too.

@alyx There was this blog post from someone assessing a few of the tools in this space, and concluding in electing sqlc/pgx. It’s quite an old article (2021) but the thought process still stands and the tools mentioned are still around.
I’m new to #Golang myself and also looking for good ways to work with #PostgreSQL. That’s how I came across that article.

Hi, we have a freelance remote gig available to help us setting up a new CMS on PostgreSQL to be used headless by Vue.js components .
It turns out, we have provisionally selected CraftCMS for this project.

We are Gigascience Press, the publisher of several open science journals like this one:

Let me know if you are interested

#TIL that word processor WordPerfect 8 and spreadsheet tool Lotus 1-2-3 (yes, knowing about them might betray one's age) work fully functional inside the #terminal on modern #Linux OS, including graphics...
Mind blowing.

I'm sure, it's only a matter of time before someone post container images of those #software on public container registries...

@rmondello Someone tooted not long ago something along the lines of:
Wearing a mask shows at the same time that we give a shit about other humans and that we don't give a shit about what people think of us

Is there equivalent of conventional commits[1] and conventional comments[2] for issues/tickets ?

#Standards or #Guidelines

* for a user to write a clear bug or request ticket
* for maintainers to quickly understand content of a ticket
* for maintainers and users to interact constructively
* for scripts to semantically parse a ticket (for triage, analytics)

[2] https://conventionalcomments.org

#OpenSource #Bugs #Community #ProjectManagement

Conventional Commits

A specification for adding human and machine readable meaning to commit messages

@Philsturgeon I believe bamboo is good raw material for making #biochar, which helps growing healthy #soil and sequestering carbon.
Maybe you can widen the search to biochar makers, organic farmers, to increase your odds of matching supply with demand?

A few weeks ago, this project from Christchurch, NZ to map its fruit trees made it to HN front page

https://smartview.ccc.govt.nz/map/layers/trees

Immediately, It reminded me of the Falling Fruit project:

https://fallingfruit.org/

It's a global map of places where the public can freely harvest the edible produce from trees.
Anecdotally, two locations, in Hong Kong and in France, I was able to verify in person that the bounty was real.
