I dont get why polical donations are seen as 'absolute game changers' - why cant the politician say 'sorry - thanks for the $10k to ban [blah] , but someone else donated $20k to not ban [blah].
Every company: adds "AI [blah]" to every bloody product when NO ONE ASKED FOR IT. This is such a shame as there are GOOD uses for AI, but the current mood is rapidly becoming "if I hear AI one more fucking time I will scream"
I wrote some old #worldbuilding #procedural_generators - trying to make them more visible. Doing a web app so everyone can find things - https://github.com/acutesoftware/worldbuild
#SQLite is a very underrated database - for single users it is blindingly fast and works well, though the slightly limited #SQL commands are annoying at times
So ChatGPT gets confused counting the letter 'r' in the word strawberry - but with EXTREME coaching, it gets there in the end
#LLMs are great for helping you code - they more often than not give you bugs / code that wont integrate / missed parts , so you have to work out what is wrong. Its like turning the fun part of 'writing code' into the boring part or 'debu…

How do you all handle daily recurring tasks in #Obsidian ?
I have recurring tasks as separate notes in a folder and my daily note template shows these through a #dataview
## Daily Tasks
```dataview
TASK FROM "00-META/03-Calendar/03-3-rec…
To #organise my #PIM I set up top level folders below -
00-META
10-Pers
20-Biz
30-Work
40-Dev
50-Fun
60-Design
70-Make
80-Learn
Good thing is, any #Markdown friendly app like #Obsidian or #Logseq can read them

I think I have finally settled on a folder hierarchy for #Obsidian - is 125 folders too many?
With the dataview plugin, I am having no trouble finding things so far.
```dataview
TABLE length(rows.file.path) as "Num notes", sum(rows.file.si…
I've been developing for a long time, but so far I have yet to see a need for #Docker. It feels like a lazy way to avoid setting up a #python install package.

About
I love computers and I absolutely *will* re-invent the wheel (on my own time) - every, single time so I know how it all works.
Work is mainly #data manipulation with #SQL and #Python, but a lot of #metadata extraction, #PKM, #PIM and finding better ways to collect, classify and manage information.
I love playing #Games and do #GameDev in #UnrealEngine and #Blender (currently working on an #OpenWorld #ThirdPerson #crafting game )
My values are #Learn #Left #Opensource #kindness #dontbeadick
