#yq is a #YAML processor.

yq is a command line program that takes in YAML data and runs an expression against it, like #sed. yq programs can be made up of many operators, including simple accessors, assignment operators, arithmetic, sorting, recursive globbing, and more. yq can also process #JSON, as it is a subset of YAML.

So Veritasium made a video about self driving cars - https://youtube.com/watch?v=yjztvddhZmI

I just wanna let you know that there's a lot of valid criticisms for this video - https://social.trom.tf/display/dbc8dc44-3460-fb0a-603e-70f402545447

Its disappointing coming from a channel like veritasium. He has made a lot of good videos and I've shared some of those here in the past.

Today the public of the Netherlands has their chance to say their farewells to crime reporter Peter R. de Vries, who was shot almost 2 weeks ago and passed away last week from his injuries.

Because I'm not in Amsterdam today I wanted say my farewell in the public space of the Fediverse: Peter, you have helped so many for so long; I hope people will help your family now and hope others will stand up, and take you as an example of how to be a good person. Farewell Peter!

Hmm, think about living in Switzerland, the flag is a big plus

I DID IT

Using master branch of XeTeX, and with many syntax error fixes to xetex.web (ok tbh, it didn't take that long), then

$ weave xetex.web && sed '1s/webmac/xewebmac/' -i xetex.tex && xetex xetex.tex

Will probably be uploading that file somewhere so others don't have to go through this.
