💭 How to Force Dark Mode on Every Website in Google Chrome www.howtogeek.com

How to Force Dark Mode on Every Website in Google Chrome Do you like dark mode? Chrome now lets you forcibly enable it for every site on the web. No more blindingly bright websites. How-To Geek · howtogeek.com [1] Sometimes I struggle to get my os to report dark mode to chrome, luckily there is a way to force chrome to always use dark mode. I’ve never really gotten into dark reader and extensions like this. For some reason they all make websites look really weird to me and I don’t really care for it. What I want is websites designed to be in dark/light to always go dark, if the designer didn’t design dark just let it be light. Note This post is a thought [2].

tailscale ssh

Tailscale allows you to ssh into all of your tailscale machines, it busts through firewalls and accross networks without complex setup. If you have used tailscale before this is an obvious no brainer. What is not obvious is that you can configure tailscale to allow ssh connections from devices within your tailnet without even a ssh daemon process running right through the tailscale daemon. tailscale status tailscale set --ssh I picked this up from the tailscale youtube channel.

Jake Worth · jakeworth.com [1] Great set of tips here! No waiting. No “waiting until tomorrow” or “It’s Friday, let’s wait until Monday” to deploy. If your deploys are so slow that deploying an hour before the end of the day is a risk, that’s a separate problem. If you’re afraid of a Friday deploy, your system is too brittle, or you don’t have foolproof rollback procedures, or you don’t have people you trust on call to resolve it. Each of these is a problem that you can fix. This one I find interesting I think there are some industries where customers come in large waves over the weekend, and a weekend bug can not only ruin someones day off, take longer to fix, but also cost a lot of money. Not deploying on Friday is totally what that team should be doing. Most of us are not that team.
