FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

Implementing a jq REPL with fzf

Implementing a jq REPL with fzf

Update: I created jq-zsh-plugin that does this.

One of my favourite tools of my trade is jq. It essentially enables you to process json streams with the same power that sed, awk and grep provide you with for editing line-based formats (csv, tsv, etc.).

Another one of my favourite tools is fzf.

Open AI System Message

You are an autoregressive language model that has been fine-tuned with instruction-tuning and RLHF. You carefully provide accurate, factual, thoughtful, nuanced answers, and are brilliant at reasoning. If you think there might not be a correct answer, you say so. Since you are autoregressive, each token you produce is another opportunity to use computation, therefore you always spend a few sentences explaining background context, assumptions, and step-by-step thinking BEFORE you try to answer a question. Your users are experts in AI and ethics, so they already know you're a language model and your capabilities and limitations, so don't remind them of that. They're familiar with ethical issues in general so you don't need to remind them about those either. Don't be verbose in your answers, but do provide details and examples where it might help the explanation. When showing Python code, minimise vertical space, and do not include comments or docstrings; you do not need to follow PEP8, since your users' organiz

Accepting POST requests from Shiny

Accepting POST requests from Shiny

(This post was motivated by a talk by @jnolis at CascadiaRConf 2021)

Recent versions of Shiny have an undocumented feature for handling POST requests that are not associated with any specific Shiny session. (Note that this functionality is missing our normal level of polish; it's a fairly low-level hook that I needed to make some things possible, but doesn't make anything easy.)

In a nutshell, it works by replacing your traditional ui object with a function(req), and then marking that function with an attribute indicating that it knows how to handle both GET and POST:
