<p>Hi HN,<p>I had a few days during the easter break to finish up a long standing project I had in mind for my solidity development: a cli based debugger and tracer.<p>I used truffle-debug a lot, but the whole project got sunset (and was painfully slow anyways, but thats a different story). I was never into hardhat, but I really like foundry as a successor. I always missed a properly formatted tracer and debugger like we know it from tenderly, but cli based, with local, text based outputs.<p>I wanted something a human and an LLM can use. So, I sat down and I wired up foundry into a tx replay with revm, also all in rust, same style as foundry itself. If you use foundry then soldebug will be just as easy to use.<p>Anyways, its a first version, but maybe its also helpful for others. If you find it useful (or not), let me know, or generally, any feedback very welcome.</p>

<p>yes, we do, e.g. flixbus. and some others I think. Haven't been traveling for a while by bus around Austria. Apples/Oranges probably, but I do know vienna<->bratislava has like 3-4 different companies operating the same route with similar busses at similar times with different prices.<p>And talking about apples/oranges, let me add apples/bananas: Vienna to Budapest by train cost a lot when booking via öbb. And not a lot when booking via Regiojet.<p>The problem is the offers are all scattered around imho.</p>

<p>Like courses on udemy. Most people buy a ton of courses probably for the feeling of having bought a course. Which translates apparently to already halfway there becoming that expert the courses promises you to become. Or they build a catalog and sell the account (on udemy).</p>

<p>same here.<p>It's actually relaxing to just drive around with different cars into the sunset, turn the radio on and occasionally overrun some pedestrians.<p>I knew I can't be the only one finding it relaxing, yet the anxiety before starting the game if I can play it or not because of yet another update is really a downturn.</p>

<p>That is AWESOME! I am wondering, are you creating all the content yourself?<p>I am doing plenty of courses across different platforms, from udemy to teachable selfhosting etc. They all lack the interactivity. I am currently hosting the code samples myself and basically redirect students there, where they can interact.<p>But scrimba is another league!<p>If you open this up similar to how udemy just hosts videos and does revenue share, count me in. With the webcontainers, the sky is the limit and beyond.</p>

<p>If I imagine I run into a factory full of "thinking" (current LLM level top of line benchmark) humanoid looking robots who are collaborating on tasks dynamically as needed in the dark (because they don't need light, ... or oxygen ... or basically anything but electricity)...<p>In my book that is as dystopian as it gets and has nothing to do with the current level of automation with robots that's happening, that's a whole new level. Production efficiency is one thing, but not far and the DOD or someone else on the other end of the world has some creative ideas how to use that to "make the world great again"...</p>

<p>yes, they do, that is true, however that's with [some]-axis stationary robots. Not humanoid robots literally running around. The best we can do right now afaik is that robot-dog-like thing which can overcome obstacles and be equipped with sensors. Nothing human like.<p>If I imagine I run into a factory full of "thinking" (current LLM level top of line benchmark) humanoid looking robots who are collaborating on tasks dynamically as needed...

<p>Quite dystopian thinking how a full factory and beyond could be run completely in the dark, just robots running around doing their thing. Faster, stronger, more accurate, never tired, never sleeping. Add in a small nuclear battery like the one from Betavolt coming up and mass produce it. And you have an autonomous "thinking" thing in the physical world capable of almost anything that humans are capable. Endless possibilities...<p>Never has the future been brighter and darker at the same time.. lets see.</p>

<p>to be fair here: for a lot of companies, if the mass mailing stops, the money-flow stops then that's no good for anyone... so the CEO will probably err on the side of money, presumably.</p>

<p>I have an honest question here, that is a bit off-topic:<p>When I look at the pictures, I see most people are overweight (some are outright fat and obese). Is that just by accident on these particular pictures with a tiny sample size? Or is that a problem in Mexico?<p>I'm from Europe and when I think about Mexico, I do not have overweight people in my mind, instead a relatively healthy diet of local produce. Is that a misconception?</p>

<p>Oh I wish...<p>"Hey computer, enable self destruct, authorization Picard 4-7 Alpha Tango"<p>"Selfdestruct not available since the Cancun upgrade"<p>jokes aside, I think we're moving more and more into a place where we have thousands of specialized connectors to let the general AI models "do stuff" directly. We might finally move into a time where we can interact in multi-modal ways with a computer and "it understands and does things". But as always, with great powers comes great responsibility, not sure I'd give it access to my private keys to send transactions for example...</p>

<p>> My advice is to celebrate the successes of large corporates in this regard very hard and often - this provides backup to the champions on the inside.<p>I am wondering what the metrics / KPIs are they are tracking to see if open sourcing something is a success or not. Can't be just "sales went up for retro games when we open sourced" - there must be something like community reception and retention, general acceptance or whatever...<p>But yes, I agree. Let's celebrate this and hope for more.</p>
