possibly related, it errors if my working directory is a checkout of OpenCode. i was using CC to work on some patches for OC and had to work in a parent directory and then tell Claude to work on the files inside the "opencode" folder.
I took a slightly different approach in that I don't want to use YAML as the authoritative source. Many projects abuse it, and end up creating a DSL on top of it with all sorts of hacks to achieve the flexibility of a programming language. Pulumi and Pyinfra already provide user-friendly primitives and idempotent(ish) APIs that work much better than YAML. I simply want to expose some (opinionated) building blocks to make them easy to use, and allow users to customize them and add their own as needed. E.g. I definitely don't want to write any shell scripts inside YAML. :)
BTW, Pulumi already supports YAML[1], which can be used with any provider. But to me it's too verbose and generic, and of course, it lacks the provisioning primitives.
there are some scientist and theorists that argue entropy production is the ultimate sign of life (Jeremy England) and consciousness (Robin Carhart-Harris, Tom Froese)

i find this comical because it reads like a slightly-differently-worded POSIWID argument :)

>These are obviously false.
The purpose of the Ukrainian military is to exhaust the Russian army's materiel and test out our weapons. "Years-long stalemate with Russia? Yes, please." -the US. Seems like an overwhelmingly common Scott Alexander L.
In practice, always. It's similar to the claim that during the cold war, US basically controlled USSR economy, and vice versa, and that US won because USSR economy just couldn't keep up.
On smaller scale, this is the (in)famous "fire and motion"[0], which works in business as much as it does in military tactics. Make a move, forcing competitors to respond to it. If you're better at it than them (and lucky), you can choose your moves to make their responses go to your advantage.
