Save time, bandwidth and disk usage while cloning a #Git repo by running a partial clone. It fetches entire commit history but avoids downloading file patches for entire history until checked out. git clone --filter=blob:none <url> #git #github #gitlab #gitea #codeberg

I replaced a shell script today with AWK and sqlite. The result is easier to maintain and 141 times (sic!) faster than the code it replaced. SQLite is grossly undervalued for typical scripting tasks. AWK the data into a table and .import - solves a lot of problems.

We’ve all used multiple operating systems in our lives. Some were good and some were bad. But can you say that you’ve ever used an operating system designed by God? Today, I’d like to introduce you...

If anything I learned working creating a user account using a pattern, you will always offend someone. Often username conventions occur in an inappropriate, unfortunate, insulting, racist, sexist, and whatnot. Many times software in question does not allow such stuff.

The best kind of bug report is when the reporter threatens to give up using your open source product if you don't hurry up to fix it. In your spare time. For their benefit. </sarcasm>

Shell scripts run in their own subshell, so a cd in a script only effects the subshell. To script a cd, use an alias instead.

It turns out there is. Watomatic is a free/open source "autoresponder" utility for Whatsapp and Facebook that automatically replies to messages with instructions for reaching you on a rival service. play.google.com/store/apps/d… 38/

I need to process a 169,283-line tax-related CSV published by the state of Washington. I can do it in 0.486 s at my shell. Or I can load it into Numbers, which takes multiple minutes to copy one column to the clipboard. No idea how non-programmers get anything done on computers.

Amazing concept, wonderfully executed by @watomatic, created by @adeekshith. An important step towards breaking away from the Facebook ecosystem.
