3 days	Add shebangs and x bit to executables	Ben Sima
	With run.sh, we can build and run the file in one go. This means we can also use it as an interpreter in a shebang line and properly use the Unix executable bit. This is pretty cool and gives a few advantages: running any executable file is just `exec file.hs` or even `./file.hs`, finding all executables is `fd -t x`, you don't need to specify or know an `out` name to run something, execution of a program is standardized. There is a hack to get this to work. In C and Common Lisp, `#!` is illegal syntax, so I had to use shell syntax to invoke run.sh, call it on the current file, and then exit the shell script. Meanwhile, run.sh takes the file and evals the whole thing, building and running it. As long as either `//` or `;` is a comment character in the target language, then this works. Maybe a better thing to do would be to pre-process the file and remove the `#!` before passing it to the C compiler, like [ryanmjacobs/c][1] and [tcc][2]? However this won't work in Lisp because then I can't just load the file directly into the repl, so maybe the comment hack needs to stay.

4 days	Build and deploy storybook	Ben Sima
	I put the storybook into a new Biz.nix deploy target. The idea here is that any Biz/* targets should be hosted by this one VM for simplicity. Over time I can grow this as need be, but this should work to host a few services.
4 days	Create a bootstrap image for Digital Ocean droplets	Ben Sima
	I need a way to reliably get a NixOS VM provisioned in the cloud, and the easiest way to do this is to create a qcow2 image, upload it to Digital Ocean, and use that to start a droplet. This is very much a manual process, but that's fine, I shouldn't need to do it very often (for now).
4 days	Manage Storybook Images	Ben Sima
	This adds the Images endpoint and related functions for loading and saving images to the filesystem. In the view layer, it also loads the images asynchronously using HTMX, so the images get lazy-loaded only when they are done generating.
4 days	Prune unused stuff	Ben Sima
	This was all dead weight, just delete it and move on.
4 days	Convert Biz/Storybook.py to Ludic	Ben Sima
	This is basically a full rewrite. I ripped out Flask and rearchitected the whole thing to use fully RESTful resources and endpoints using Ludic. The UI was completely redone to use Ludic's components. I added tests for everything that I reasonably could. This is almost ready for an alpha launch. Before shipping it I still need to: 1. generate images using image n-1 applied to `openai.images.create_variation()` 2. write a nix service, get it on a VM somewhere, I'll probably provision a new VM for this 3. replace the `db` thing with a real sqlite database I only need the first one done to show it to Lia and see if she likes it, that should be completed in a day or two. Then the nix service and deployment won't take long at all. Setting up a sqlite database will be annoying, but that I can't see that actually taking more than 2 days. So max 5 days out from launching this to friends and family.
4 days	Package ludic	Ben Sima
	This required upgrading to python 3.12 because of some f-string format thing that ludic uses. It's kind of annoying but the upgrade was easy enough, so I just did it.
4 days	Update nixos-24_05	Ben Sima
	It's good to do this often.
4 days	Implement storybook prototype	Ben Sima
	This paritally used gptme to create a storybook generator. The problem I ran into is that gptme doesn't do any architecting or considerations for maintainable code, or even readable code, so it just wrote a long script. I couldn't test it. Also, it didn't actually generate a 10-page story, it generated 10 separate stories. So, I ended up writing it myself and using gptme to fixup TODOs that I wrote along the way.
4 days	Test Python code with bild --test	Ben Sima
	I had forgotten to add this feature, apparently, so bild --test just didn't do the test part.
4 days	Add datasette to dev environment	Ben Sima
	This is handy for looking at llm chat history.
4 days	Add llm binary to dev environment	Ben Sima
	I forgot to add llm to this, instead I just added the extra libraries, which meant I had the libraries present but not the binary for running them! And llm is important in the base dev environment because I need to experiment with the various llms independent of my application code.
4 days	Re-namespace some stuff to Omni	Ben Sima
	I was getting confused about what is a product and what is internal infrastructure; I think it is good to keep those things separate. So I moved a bunch of stuff to an Omni namespace, actually most stuff went there. Only things that are explicitly external products are still in the Biz namespace.
