Creating a directory that is a union of several directories can be achieved with a few symlinks at the command line. Creating a Virtual File Gallery # [1] Here is how I am creating a virtual directory of all my projects that is a combination of both work and not-work projects. I am creating symlinks for every directory under ~/work and ~/git. rm -rf ~/projects mkdir ~/projects ln -sf ~/work/* ~/projects ln -sf ~/git/* ~/projects ⚠ Notice that first I am recreating the directory each time. This will ensure that any project that is deleted from their actual directory is removed from the virtual gallery. Updating the gallery # [2] Since links are always kept up to date without any extra work, all the data is still in the same place it started. But as new directories are added to any project directory they will not be automatically added to the virtual gallery. - cron - bashrc/zshrc If you’re concerned about system resources, you can add it to a cron job to run at a regular sch...

I really like using conda (miniconda) as my python virtual environment [1] manager of choice. It’s simple and it includes its own python interpreter using the version that I specify at creation. Mamba # [2] from their readme [3] --- Mamba is a reimplementation of the conda package manager in C++. - parallel downloading of repository data and package files using multi-threading - libsolv for much faster dependency solving, a state of the art library used in the RPM package manager of Red Hat, Fedora and OpenSUSE - core parts of mamba are implemented in C++ for maximum efficiency At the same time, mamba utilize the same command line parser, package installation and deinstallation code and transaction verification routines as conda to stay as compatible as possible. --- Installing Micromamba # [4] Similar to miniconda micromamba can be installed with a few lines of bash wget -qO- https://micromamba.snakepit.net/api/micromamba/linux-64/latest | tar -xvj bin/micromamba ./bin/...

I’ve long used neovim from within windows wsl, and for far too long, I went without a proper way to get text out of it and into windows. wsl has access to cmd applications # [1] wsl can access clip.exe. You can do some cool things with it, such as cat a file into the clipboard, sending output from a command to the clipboard, or set an autocmd group in vim to send yank to the windows clipboard. using clip.exe # [2] Let’s say you want to send a teammate the tail of a log file over chat. You can tail the file into clip.exe. tail -n 1 info.log | clip.exe pipe streams of text into clip.exe make it a bit more natural # [3] I recently made mine feel a bit more natural by aliasing it to clip. alias clip=clip.exe pop this in your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc yanking to windows clipboard from vim # [4] I use neovim as my daily text editor and its a pain to share code with a teammate over chat, stack overflow, into a gist, or whatever you need. The following snippet has been quite useful ...
