Today I learned how to convert an integer to binary string format in python using standard functions available.

binary_string = format(n, '0Nb')

where N is the number of digits we need

`txt

format(10)

'10'

format(10, 'b')

'1010'

format(10, '9b')

' 1010'

format(10, '09b')

'000001010'

`

I also found another way to convert binary string back to integer.

integer = int(binary_string, 2)

Now, this means the following python statement will always be true for any integer (I guess there are no edge cases here but maybe I'm wrong):

assert integer == int(format(integer, 'b'), 2)

It’s similar to formatting like that if go or c.

we have come to a point where we don’t know if anything is real or not. like if it’s found on digital media. which is why I feel there will be a Cambrian explosion of things that people build on the internet create and in terms of content (video content especially) and also for the other modalities, which is why we need to conclude that everything is going to blow up like never seen before, and hence we should limit what we consume on the internet through pools of peer reviewed facts and news (if not already)

Excerpts from “Code is cheap, show me talk” by Kailash Nadh

An experienced developer who can talk well, that is, imagine, articulate, define problem statements, architect and engineer, has a massive advantage over someone who cannot, more disproportionately than ever.

I decided to give in and setup a @clawdbot daemon today for fun. Remotely on a fresh ec2 instance.

Apart from some hurdles, i got it working via telegram trigger.

I see the vision, have some ideas and yes we’re getting close.

Remote personal agents. Cambrian explosion. I see it.

Today, I shall try to do things that I couldn’t even attempt yesterday.

Following the pictorial trend on the idea of Roko's Basilisk, I asked chatGPT to generate an image on how I’d treated it.
