    i wonder how much effort would it take to index all official documentation pages & stackoverflow, and push it into one big search engine

    thats not exactly the point of bshchk. the idea is to have it run on any platform, in a single bash script, just as amber does (the another project mentioned earlier)

  • so, about a month ago i stumbled upon the duckduckgo ai chat feature and wrote [an article](https://blek.codes/blog/duckduckgo-ai-chat) about how private their APIs are, and a few weeks after, [a CLI client](https://git.blek.codes/blek/hey). the thing is in a pretty mature stage now (its not like there is a lot of work to be done there tbh) its not super private, but it is "private enough". the only thing duckduckgo has is your IP, which is usually not much unless you are on a residential connection with a dedicated IP

    i kinda wanna buy one to toss it in my backpack with a 2TB ssd full of movies and stuff to have a zero latency netflix anywhere i go. im just a little bit confused because jellyfin docs say that its not a good idea at all to run it on a raspberry pi (or any other single board computer), so i thought i'd ask here if anyone has done that. i mean, just one user shouldn't be that much for a raspberry pi, right?

    https://bshchk.blek.codes/ this is a program that parses a bash file, collects all dependencies and then adds a snippet at the start of the file that would check if they are installed at the earliest point possible, to prevent situations where a program just fails in the middle of execution because some random dependency is not installed i've originally made this to use it in [another project](https://amber-lang.com/), but might just as well share with y'all
