I'm on the hunt for a #TextToSql package for #Node. That is, an #npm package that takes an #SQL database, analyzes its structure, and can then transform natural language input into a query, run it, and bring me back the results.

Although it's #Python and so not relevant for me, I've found a very impressive solution in the form of VannaAI (github.com/vanna-ai/vanna).

Their core is available in PyPI under MIT and the code looks clean and shin!

new release of #Fedialgo, the customizable timeline algorithm / filtering system for your Mastodon feed, counts the number of times each hashtag appears in your timeline even if people don't use a "#" character to give you a better sense of what people are talking about in the Fediverse.

there's a little bit of art vs. science here because some strings are disqualified from this kind of counting (e.g. a word like "the" should not be counted even if some maniac decided to make it a hashtag) so let me know if you see any weirdly high counts.

@hyc @voxel also #PoS inherently rewards rich users and concentrates power even more than the nature of #PoW would, as running a #Monero #node or #miner doesn't require expensive custom #ASIC|s that are going to become manufactured #eWaste down the line and can't be repurposed for anything but being the noisiest and most expesive space heaters!

  • Or to put it into perspective: PoS implementations like #Ethereum only rewarded already abdurdly rich capital holders and wiped everyone else out due to every PoS mechanism demanding a minimum of staked coins AND even if it didn't all of them inherently reward staking more with a higher "rent" / "reward"!

Case in point: There are only ugly and filthy solutions to that problem and Monero chose the "least worst" they could: Shure it still has problems but those are at least fully known, understood and working as in 'communities can outnumber single rich entities'...

Infosec.SpaceKevin Karhan :verified: (@kkarhan@infosec.space)@voxel like all #PoW #Cryptocurrency, #Monero too does #WastefulComputing. - Unlike many others it automatically adapts #Difficulty based off total #hashrate as it enshures a constant block reward of 0,6 XMR + Tx Fees per block at a constant block time of 2mins per block. That being said Monero was explicitly designed to not be #ASIC-able in a cost-efficient manner and be #GPU-unfriendly, so it's more #decentralized and doesn't cause harm by demanding custom hardware that can't be repurposed that causes 100% avoidable #eWaste! - IOW: I's the *'least worst'* option given it's PoW doesn't incentive or reward capital holders (beyond the ability to host and have power to mine)…

One of the many great things I take for advantage when building with .NET is the ability to just upgrade dependencies.

Especially if they are just minor version bumps. Everything still works. UNLIKE ANYTHING JAVASCRIPT/NODE/NPM! If I upgrade dependencies there then on average everything breaks.

I spend the next hour running every unit test, reading CI/CD logs, stressing every step of the way. It's fucking bullshit.
