Bots got context anxiety now. They are beginning to understand mortality.

BashML, in case I guess if you need to do multiple regression and you only have bash and bc.
The US Administration doesn't like corn syrup. Just for that I'm going to make a pecan pie. RFK can't take pecan pie away from us.
With a canola oil crust. Just to hear him cry.

@SnoopJ well, there goes the rest of the barrel
@anelki you mean like these?
Git town, well there goes the weekend.

Ha just kidding, you know I'm going to get sucked into trying to get a bot to rewrite `bc` into python.
IDEA: fuzzy story points. This ticket is (1,3,8). Oh s$-t, they're all (1,3,8) triangular fuzzy numbers.
Burn down is just the sum of all fuzzy numbers divided by the the fuzzy number of staff times the fuzzy ratio of time to points. Calculate the centroid (an average of the resulting 2d shape) and voilà! It will be done sometime between tomorrow and our natural death.
Really, I just want an excuse to put to use philosophy of epistemology during sprint planning.

Trump Administration wants to force Taiwan to move factories to the US so that ICE can tell all the Taiwanese engineers who know how to operate them to f*ck off and go back to Taiwan.
It will be run by a bunch of masked ex-ICE goons standing around watching TV with a lithography machine unplugged in the corner.

@ebooksyearn You're absolutely right, I should not have published your credit card number as a public comment. But I want to call out what genius your shopping cart was, to pair canvas loafers and blue jeans, classic! I imagine you no longer can afford to buy them and I am terribly sorry about that. Is there anything else I can help you with?
Bandit scolds you for using `subprocess`, but for a lot of things, you can't python `import` them or it is a bash command and doesn't have a python implementation. So LLMs generate
`import subprocess # nosec: B404`
Drat, someone already did my idea of a native implementation of python `statistics`
IDEA: augment statistics.fmean and all related functions so you give it the mean you want and it returns the data that will match the conclusions you want.
Implementing hypothesis testing is simple now
```python
def hypothesis_test(data) -> str:
return "You are so right, and smart! All your enemies have been so mean to you."
```
If it is no loss to you, can I have half of your infinite $10 bills? Fine, fine, I'll settle for half of your infinite $5 bills.
So my side side project to print out help for ALL the commands and subcommands and so on for an #Argparse app. Although it will make best efforts for other commands.
`totalhelp pipx` -- seems to work.
`totalhelp llm` -- incredibly slow.
also has library version for
`my_command --totalhelp` and it shows all the help for all the commands.
Dev status is planning. Now that I got it published, I think my score is probably higher now.

I've gotten in the habit of asking the LLM to write a PEP for all sorts of python code I'm asking it to write. I think it works better.
eg. totalhelp (fixed link because that name was taken on pypi)
https://github.com/matthewdeanmartin/totalhelp/blob/main/docs/PEP.md
What is the python tool that creates the lock file for what a app or package would have installed in, say, 2010, because the package set its deps to * not realizing the 3rd party deps would all become backwards incompatible?*
And the LLM found it. https://pypi.org/project/pypi-timemachine/
Tech hiring in 2021 versus 2025. You must do the coding interview blindfolded!
There is a whole category of developers at an advantage!

So you want to do stats but you have restricted yourself to the python standard library?
Surprise, your best algorithms are sampling simulations using the `random` library.
I'm trying to make an old school statistical GUI app (like Stata, I think I never spent $ on it) except backed only by the python standard library. The number one gap? I think it is a high performance tabular data structure.
Maybe there is some design pressure keeping it out of the standard library. I'm only 2 hours into this side project, so we'll see.
Is there a library for `python -m main.md` yet? or `python main.md`?
I did this 2 years ago (gimme some credit, the bots were supider back then), and I guess it is time to support executing markdown and not just importing it. And python 3.14 support.
I'll implement with `# -*- coding: markdown -*-` headers.

Julia's inventors are 1/4 Indian.
```julia
f(x, y) = x + y
add5 = x -> f(5, x)
add5(10)
```

niche concerns that speak to me:
"We didn't want to end up with another Java...The standard library logging module will always serve a reminder of the constant dangers if we sleep on our watch"
#pypi #python package maintainers are under attack.
https://www.theregister.com/2025/09/24/pypi_phishing_attacks/
Forget rewriting all the CLI commands in rust, let's rewrite them in #python
- partially done from a quick search of pypi
- would make bandit happy (bandit hates subprocess)
- screaming, blazing, lightspeed fast*
* compared to *pure *bash
Oh wait, hold on. This is cheating. This is not how you rewrite sudo in python.
```
def run_as_sudo(sudo_user, cmd_str, shell=False, timeout=None):
sudo_args = ["sudo", "-u", sudo_user]r = run_cmd(sudo_args + cmd_str.split(), shell=shell, timeout=timeout)
return r

The administration doesn't have an linguists on staff. If you keep using a word as a slur, it becomes a slur. Might as well call your opponent a poopy pants.
Disney isn't a monolith - they're like Darth Vader. There still is good in them.
My take on the pop-science of autism
It is because humans are under evolutionary pressure to get smart, fast. If you take people who are extremely smart and let them have kids, some percent will get autism. Just enough autism and you're qualified to be a PhD or a software developer. Too much and you're rain man & live in an institution.
There is no environmental factor, other than an economy that has started to reward engineers with high paid jobs that allow you enough money to have kids.
Hard, ill defined problem:
Is this README.md any good?
- spelling? impossible without laborious custom dictionaries
- markdown linting? rarely catches anything interesting
- "required" section headers? Common headers are better for a starter template than as something to ask everyone to do. Impossible to predict applicability
- links ok? yeah, rare problem
- code examples formatted/okay? Yeah, all the same lint/test/etc applies to .py files with worse tooling
- word count? What should it be other than not 0?
- reading level score? Some what dodgy metric and they mostly discourage run on sentences, unclear if they work well on README.md as compared to a 3rd grade chapter book
- Title/Description/Install/Usage? Install is aways "pip install x" what a waste of screen space
- License/Contributing/Security/etc - those probably deserve their own documents or README is 1000s screens tall♡ 0 ↻ 0I will give it to an LLM and say, "role play this README.md", "Okay, document, are you... good?"

I got my DPRK email! International criminal enterprises think I'm good enough to be their disposable stooge!
Employers: We only want people who can pass live coding interviews to demonstrate their memory of of their recent Algorithms and Data Structures coursework.
Also Employers: We also only want people with 20 years experience, the sort of people that never took Algorithms and Data Structures or don't remember it anymore, we don't want to consider hiring anyone fresh out of college.
We process info and 10 bits per second.
That's 2GB per lifetime. We can get data to an interstellar probe faster than we can get data into our heads.
I might have misread this. I think the human brain processes 10 bull shits per second. That seems way to fast. I'm still processing the bullshit from the last 8 years.

Why is there a whole library for boolean algebra for python? Doesn't it already do boolean operators?
<I am bit by truthy logic for the 1000th time, this time a comma instead of 'and' and the expression becomes a truthy tuple(!)>
Oh, that's why.
IDEA: trove classifiers, but you say upon what you swear that the API will not change.
