Nearly overwrote my obsidian vault today. So to solve that from ever being a problem -- I wrote a bash script to create an encrypted tarball of my vault, and included a systemd process to trigger it on boot.

How did `up n` become a must have function?
I just scrolled through over 20 bash and zsh configs on GitHub, and they all had the `up n` function.
mine is simply:
..

....

Might scrap that and add `up.bash` to my config.

Use `:w !sudo tee %` to save a file that requires elevated permissions to edit, when you have forgotten to append sudo before opening it.

Education is different from indoctrination. 🙂↕️
True learning will open the mind,
And leave all the dogma behind.
It prompts you to ask,
A critical task,
And never just follow it blind. 🙂↕️🙂↔️ -
This happened to me in 2024, my lecturer's response was: "It should," and he went on to explain 🥲.

A friend was reviewing some system misconfigurations on his PC today and piped a file directly into Neovim. The rationale for using a text editor as a terminal pager was to utilise its syntax highlighting and search capabilities.
This is effective for reading short configuration scripts. When handling massive log files, pagers like less or more provide a more efficient mechanism. A standard pager streams the text incrementally for immediate viewing. Neovim attempts to load the entire document into system memory.

I used to name my VM's when I launched them, last week I forgot to do it and I have been allowing incus to do the naming now.

TID: Finally achieved geometric peace in my Hyprland setup. Swapped to a centred master layout (50/25/25 split) to avoid my windows dancing around every time I open a reference terminal.
The maths just feels right.Read more: https://osaigbovo.xyz/runbooks/tiling-engine-hot-swapping-in-hyprland/

I got dragged into a conversation today where a group of people collectively decided that binary, octal, and hexadecimal number systems are useless and stupid.
Most of them use hexadecimal every day. In their graphic design work. #FF5733 is not decimal. It is HEXADECIMAL.
Their argument against binary was that counting in it is inefficient. That 1, 10, 11, 100, 101 is dumb compared to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
These fools fail to understand that both systems are one and the same!
Every positional number system works identically. You have N symbols. You count through them. When you exhaust them, you reset and carry. Decimal has 10 symbols (0-9). Binary has 2 (0-1). Octal has 8 (0-7). Hexadecimal has 16 (0-F). Same mechanism. Different base.
Binary is not inefficient. It maps to transistor states. Octal compresses binary into groups of three-- which is why Unix permissions are written as 000 - 777. Hexadecimal compresses binary into groups of four --which is why every memory address and colour code is in hex. These are not alternatives to decimal. They are the same information at different compression levels.
The people arguing loudest had encountered these systems, used them regularly, and left without a single question about how any of it works.
I do not know what is worse -- the ignorance or the confidence it travels at.
