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.
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.
xxHash is an extremely fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm, working at RAM speed limit. It is proposed in four flavors (XXH32, XXH64, XXH3_64bits and XXH3_128bits). The latest variant, XXH3, offers improved performance across the board, especially on small data.
I hit an issue with markata where even though a bunch of articles were cached, the site build was still slow because I was hitting hashlib.sha256 so hard for cache keys. I was shocked when this popped up in my profiler as a significant portion of the time spent. I swapped out for xxhash and that issue completely went away.
I just implemented a latest blog post link in Markata by asking for the first post slug from the blog feed. The implementation uses the jinja_md plugin to render jinja against the markdown and a tag to redirect.
My latest blog post is [[ {{ markata.feeds.blog.posts[0].slug }} ]]. Click the link if you are not automatically redirected. <meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; url='/{{ markata.feeds.blog.posts[0].slug }}'" />
Feeds are setup in markata.toml configuration. They provide a handy way to create an html feed, rss feed, and quickly reference a filtered set of posts like this.
# you will need to enable the jinja_md plugin along with the defaults [markata] hooks = [ "markata.plugins.jinja_md", "default", ] # set up the blog feed [[markata.feeds]] slug = 'blog'...
This is so easy compared to self hosting stable diffusion yourself. It even has a nice api that you can hit with curl or python. The pricing seems competitive as well. Bookmarking this to try next time I need something like it.
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.

Be Fast, Practice, Hone your craft. There’s a lot to be said here about honing your craft for editing text, picking up a few extra WPM, learning vim shortcuts.
Also just build shit. The more you build new and different things the more not only your text editing will just roll out, your skills to see patterns in code and architecture will flourish.
Read their bios, and the answer is always no. They loved to play, sure. They had some base talent, typically. But they also invested an absurd amount of time into that skill set.
This! is actually what turned me on to Post Malone. I remember hearing his story in how he was just known as the guy with a guitar because he was always playing it between class and everything.
This one is too funny. opening a sixel image in the terminal when logging into prod.
Tailwind calls strikethrough line-through. This caught me off guard and took me a minute to find.
Control how text is decorated with the underline, no-underline, and line-through utilities.
Maggie is a fantastic proponent to the digital gardening movement. In this article she proposes 3 ways for someone to start their own digital garden with low friction and no code.
This is one of my favorite changelog episodes of all time. I had no idea all the work that has gone into the right to repair and ifixit. They talk a lot about apple and its trend to be less repairable from unservicable air pods to serialized components within iphone.
A lot of legal talk that was far more interesting that I thought it would be. Recently winning the right to repair case against John Deere, and creating repairability scores for devices to be placed in stores like energy guide is.
Get gnome running in distrobox.
This is a pretty nice gear generator. I printed a few gears today and it worked great so far.
This is kinda sick, its a tool to clean up container images in a k8s cluster.
I recently discovered eraser by eraser-dev, and it’s truly impressive.

distrobox gives you distrobox-host-exec to run commands on the host. This is handy to get access to host level clis that you probably wouldn’t want to run from the container like podman, docker, flatpak.
DESCRIPTION distrobox-host-exec lets one execute command on the host, while inside of a container.
Under the hood, distrobox-host-exec uses host-spawn a project that lets us execute commands back on the host. If the tool is not found the user will be prompted to install it.
A comprehensive community built index of anti-cheat support for linux very similar to proton, but specific to anticheat support.
ublue-os makes a github template for making your own git repo with actions that build out your own personal ublue iso.
