Old Fucking Punk @lwriemen@librem.one

Hey folks, can you help me out with a little something: trying to come up with a good number of files limit for a file scan (for Kitten so you don’t hit heap memory limits if you run it from the wrong directory by mistake) and I’d love some statistics from real JavaScript/TypeScript Node.js projects of the number of files in them (excluding .git and node_modules).

Would you be kind enough to run the following command in Terminal in your largest projects and let me know what number your get (along with a short description of the project):

find . \( -name "node_modules" -o -name ".git" \) -prune -o -print | wc -l

Thank you :)

Great watch, interview w/ @davidgerard on "tech report" https://youtu.be/wAgecpbLYkI

I think the great take-away is the central thing about this "AI" bubble: we are suffering this shit because the *useless* people in our organisations, who thanks to archaic nature of our businesses and institutions, still get to call the shots, wanted rid of people who *actually do* the actual work, the *actually useful* people.

Why? well, they want our money, for a start. they think they deserve all the institutions' and businesses' revenue _and more_. But I also think there's an element of envy in there. I don't know, maybe every now and then a CEO or a dean or something walks into the janitor, and notices that if that guy were to be fired, there'd be serious disruption to operations, but if they themselves were to just stop showing up, shit would continue running, unaffected if not better.

What I'm saying is we probably wouldn't have had nearly as much bullshit if our economy was based on cooperatives and other self-governing democratic institutions that didn't have the overhead of lining the pockets of a useless owner and managerial class.

(Co-ops have managers, they're hired like any other employee, get that kind of pay, and are answerable to the co-op, not some futile bunch of leeches.)

This is the magnificent library Anthropic amassed, before destroying it because it gave them a legal copyright loophole.
