    I did probably misstate the overall capabilities of jq and grep compared with groq. I wasn't intending to criticize the product and I'm excited about all the offerings in this spac…

    I don't know if jq can do joins but getting a list of codeblock languages is a pretty simple task for almost anyone in a text file. For complex queries I agree that you typically n…

    grep -rE '```\w+' |uniq seems like the same query across text files to me. it's not "trivial" but at least grep has a man page and people have used it reliably for decades now. Spi…

    appreciate a lot of the points made in the post but ``` distinct( *["code" in body[]._type] .body[_type == "code"] .language ) ``` is "trivial" for no human being

    yes, these are all fraught. Any X-to-Y format exchange is a brew/apt miracle in my experience. It's not necessarily important for a LaTeX document to be render-able in all media, b…

    zinekeller's point notwithstanding, i agree that "installer scripts" is really the last necessary domain of the bash script. If you need a (semi)portable script to get `python` to …

    Perhaps there is a language or nuance barrier. I "thanked" the parent commenter for sharing their view, did an "internet search" for their publicly listed company to see what kind …

    take your own advice. i noticed a cert was invalid or broken and mentioned it to a person who might care or know how to deal with it appropriately. In the meantime the site is less…

    git? it's a bit heavy handed to ask your spouse and kids to clone into the family recipes, but it's basically what you're looking for. there are git-based markdown cms's like fores…
