I saw the “Turning "cat readme.txt" into arbitrary code execution in iTerm2” article and my first thought was that I am glad that I switched to Prompt 3. 😏

Still you get daily fuckers like this who just drive by dump their projects on 100s (or exactly 100 in this case) lists with no regard for list polilcies.
Now just closing without even any discussion anything that even looks like LLM generated.

I read a README file I wrote a few weeks ago and decided it didn't have enough information, so it's now twice as long with a lot more detail.
I'm the only one who will ever read or use the file, but I have learned I cannot rely on my own memory a few months or years from now when I need to revisit the project or do something similar.
Make notes! Make more notes. It's a text file, it won't take up much space but it might save you a bunch of time in the future.

If you’ve never been into exercise or considered yourself “a gym person,” the idea of starting exercise in midlife can feel daunting, or even futile.
But here’s the good news:
from a scientific standpoint, your 40s may be one of the most powerful times to get started.
When it comes to bone, muscle, metabolism, heart health and even brain function, it is never too late to start exercising.
In fact, your body is remarkably responsive to change at this stage of life, and y…

github.com/ellieayla/argparse- extracts all the --command-line=arguments supported by a CLI tool built with the Python argparse library, and writes them as a markdown table.
It's like your-cool-script.py --help, but for embedding into README.md during CI.
No dependencies outside of standard library. Single file module. Works great with @… 's cog.

Like global search and replace but don’t like surprises?
Check out serpl – a handy little command-line app that gives you a visual preview of the changes you are about to make. You can even go in and remove the replacements you don’t want from the source previews. The regex support appears to be basic, however (I couldn’t get a negative lookbehind to work).

Screenshot of me serpl with Search, Replace, Result List and Preview panes in a command-line interface. Search has /setup and [Match Case] mode selected, Replace has /settings with [Simple] mode selected. The Results List shows about 20 items and the selected file is shown in the preview pane with three replacements in diff-style red/green highlighting on lines 27, 28, and 35.

🥳 New JavaScript Database (JSDB) release
• Fix: Now properly handling array indices on `JSTable.PERSIST` events in the `keypath` property that’s passed to the event handler.
Just noticed that the pretty keypaths of the JavaScript deltas written to the append-only log were ignoring array indices while playing with a new database introspection call I’m adding to the Kitten Interactive Shell (REPL) and fixed it.
I’ll be updating Kitten shortly to use this version of JSDB and I…

Many edits in applications, flatpaks and QoL, read up on it in the readme.md. Or just give it a go!
