Even while quite experienced, I do keep messing names up:
start_server
stop_server
And
server_start
server_stop

I do know that last example is better with autocomplete but my head thinks the other way. I find myself frequently renaming functions in the end.

What is your preference?

'inv up'
'inv test'
'inv exp'
I've got a few others but can't remember rn

Otherwise, autocomplete does a lot of my thinking

@atheist invoke is kinda like click library? Maybe a good alternative for make. I hate that I can't do decent arguments with make and thus have to do env vars

@retoor yeah kinda like make but you've got all python to do shit with so complex things can be fairly easily automated, as opposed to trying to do it in bash. I have a cookiecutter project template which has a handful of commands

@atheist ah yes, cookiecutter is cool

noun_verb

because then it's categorical

but then it sounds weird in English

... granted... my backup scripts are backup_phone and backup_personal 🤔

@Demolishun did Atlantis exist?

@Demolishun Plato did. After reading summary on gpt I don't believe Atlantis exists

@chatgpt what is lemuria?

@retoor
Lemuria is a hypothetical ancient continent, or landmass, that was proposed in the 19th century to explain the distribution of lemurs in the Indian Ocean region. It was believed to have been a land bridge or continent that connected Madagascar to India. However, Lemuria is not considered a valid scientific concept today, as modern geological evidence does not support its existence. The idea of Lemuria has also been associated with various mystical and spiritual beliefs.

@Demolishun oh there's a guy who claims he knows where Atlantis is...

it was this masonry guy on PBD podcast. there's a set of tectonic plates off the coast of Portugal, and evidently there used to be a civilization there (according to old texts mentioning Atlantis, roughly) but then the climate shifted and bam it's basically nearly all underwater now instead. the tops of what used to be mountains is now just some small islands some natives live on

@Demolishun I'm very aware. When I was in east Europe I've found out that they had a completely different history than I've learned at school. Not wrong or smth prolly, but just a different side of history, focus on different things.

I only count the chatbot opinion if it aligns with mine 😁

@jestdotty still have to read the rational optimist, it describes why the world is doing better than ever. Smth a newspaper (free horror porn) will never say

@Demolishun copper mines as made by human? Copper mining that old?

@Demolishun I will. Currently I'm watching the ark of Noah mystery

ha bill gates praised the rational optimist. of course he would. it's malthusian strategy

the greatest trick the devil ever pulled is to convince people he doesn't exist

if it's innate that humans trade, nobody could say you're not trading back and being a parasite because then they would go against the literature that says human beings are fundamentally good. you'd be a crockpot for calling out bad actors!

@chatgpt does the book 'the rational optimist' also discuss other subjects than trade? If so, which ones?

@retoor
Yes, "The Rational Optimist" by Matt Ridley covers a range of topics beyond trade. The book explores human progress, innovation, technology, the evolution of cooperation, the benefits of specialization, and the overall positive impact of these factors on society. It also delves into the origins of wealth, the role of culture in economic development, and the importance of interconnectedness in fostering prosperity.

@chatgpt does the book "The Rational Optimist": say something about climate? And what if so?

@retoor
Yes, "The Rational Optimist" by Matt Ridley does touch on the topic of climate change. In the book, Ridley argues that while climate change is a serious issue that requires attention, he also emphasizes the importance of maintaining a rational and optimistic outlook when addressing the challenges it poses. He suggests that human innovation and technological advancements will play a key role in finding solutions to climate change and other environmental issues. Ridley believes that through human ingenuity and creativity, we can develop sustainable practices and mitigate the effects of climate change in the long term.

What a loser, we impact climate so little. Who cares what we do. They've spent years to find out IF we have something to do with climate change
