RIP. Loved this mans music
Originally a metric to drive prioritization and constraints on the project (amongst others, like zero deps, etc) -- but clearly ended up getting abused
heh... i'm afraid i didn't commit it -- as it was in the original pi-autoresearch yolo'ing phase.
Caught by surprise by the people who want to read the code -- and thank you for the great ideas.

Slapped together an 'unminified version' that has been ran against the test suite.

Hopefully has more educational value

Show HN: Pu.sh – a full coding-agent harness in 400 lines of shell

https://pu.dev/

I originally was just messing with pi-autoresearch. Gave it a sample task to build the most portable coding agent.First cut was 6 KB of shell. Great for one-shots, unusable interactively. I was shocked it actually worked.Started building up -- adding features — but with a self-imposed rule: no new dependencies, and sub 500 LOC. This thing had to be truly portable. Just sh, curl, awk. System...

Re:The Collapse of Self-Worth in the Digital Age on Saturday September 21, 2024 @08:46AM (#41609618)
Call me unempathetic, but how would this be any different in a non-digital era? You’ll still have a market (albeit significantly smaller, IE: lets say a small locale or village). But you could have easily said the same thing in a non-digital age, with just more rudimentary metrics and a market that is a community that either values or doesn’t value your work. Much like the proverbial school playground (which could also be analogous to a market).

It’s like the author is blaming technology for illustrating the truth in a highly efficient way.

She may as well have complained about the printing press being problematic.

Agree -- settlement still occurs every day. And credit cards charge %, versus network fees in crypto are amount agnostic (ie: 1 million transfer vs 1 dollar transfer cost the same)

How has he not acknowledged how expensive physical settlement between banks is? A brinks truck carrying funds between banks, the bankers managing this process, all the and all of the human capital required to support the entire process?
Cause these miners can't just load quadro drivers and proceed anyway...

What a waste of time for everyone
