Today I setup a new machine on Digital Ocean to use with TestProject.io, Here are my installation notes. envsubst <.github/ci/docker-compose.yml > docker-compose.yml

This morning I logged into my machine and was nearly out of space 64GB miniconda3! 5GB conda cache 4GM pip cache 34GB docker Find it These are the commands that I often use to reclaim space. Its so easy to fill up small vm’s in the cloud, or in my case today let your dev machine go way too long without a good cleanup. Show Remaining Space on Drives This shows us where to start and gives a baseline of how much space we have reclaimed. show largest files in current directory Next keep drilling into directories that are big and running this command to see whats big inside of it. When you find somethign that you are willing to part with it and check to see if you have enough reclaimed yet. Honestly I rarely bother unless the directory is in the GB’s of space. A super simple filter for that is to just grep for G. conda How Many? As a first baseline lets see how many enviroments we are starting with. I started with 71. Yeah I have had this machine for 2 years, and dont regularly remove them.…

I have been using oh-my-zsh successfully for about 2 years now. But lately my startup time has been really bothersome. It has grown to the point where it was taking about 5.5s to startup a shell! This is ok if I am going to spend some time in here for awhile and do some work that benefits from all of the autocompletions, plugins, and shortcuts that oh-my-zsh brings. But to only jump in to run a handful of commands is infuriating. 📑 My Setup I believe the real issue is io speed on wsl. I have some remote servers with similar configs that are 10x faster or more, loading in 100s of milliseconds rather than seconds. Sourcing all of the individual plugin files are just too much for it. 💨 How Fast can it be Quick side note: your zsh config is controled by your ~/.zshrc file. This file can source other files, load plugins, or run literally anything. Time the initial time Move your ~/.zshrc config file. Time the fastest startup possible with nothing in your ~/.zshrc config file. Move your ~/.z…

Bash is super powerful. File System Full Show Remaining Space on Drives show largest files in current directory Move files then symlink them Fuzzy One Liners edit in vim cat a file bash execute git add git reset Kill a process Finding things Files fd-find is amazing for finding files, it even respects your file 😲. Install with. ++Vanilla Bonus Content ** show matching text ** ++Vanilla Bonus ** show file names only ** ++Vanilla Bonus Recursively Replace text ++Vanilla Bonus Extending or There are so many options inside of,, and that you could many an enormous amount of these if you really wanted to, but I like to keep it simple. These cover 90% of my usage. If I wanted to change something in the second half I would just paste in this command and edit it. More often though I want to limit the input, say only replace word1 to word2 inside of markdown files. Limited Scope ++Vanilla Bonus Large Refactor At The Command Line I use these replace commands heavily when doing large refactorings.…
