...and somehow I managed to list a bunch of awesome this-and-that resources *without* mentioning **LibHunt**:
https://www.libhunt.com/about

LibHunt claims to monitor everything posted on Reddit, Hacker News, and Dev.to, almost in real time.
When an open-source repo gets mentioned, it’s tracked and indexed to build lists of *popular* and *similar* projects.

Basically, it’s like a community-powered radar for open source.

They even run a network of sub-sites focused on popular programming languages:
🦀 Rust → https://rust.libhunt.com/
🐍 Python → https://python.libhunt.com/
💻 C++ → https://cpp.libhunt.com/
⚙️ .NET → https://dotnet.libhunt.com/
...and plenty more.

This one’s especially neat, it even includes one-liners for common CLI tools at the bottom (great idea!):
https://github.com/trimstray/the-book-of-secret-knowledge
A huge collection of lists, manuals, blogs, hacks, one-liners, CLI/web tools, and more.

GitHub’s *Awesome Lists* topic is another great starting point:
https://github.com/topics/awesome

Another curated list of GitHub repositories full of free resources:
https://github.com/pawelborkar/awesome-repos

Want to learn by doing? Step-by-step guides for re-creating *anything* from scratch:

And finally, a community effort to create developer roadmaps and skill paths:

Mostly a note for myself, but he best starting point is probably the *awesome list of awesome lists* and its companion, the *Ranked Awesome Lists* project:

📚 sindresorhus/awesome → https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome
📊 Ranked Awesome Lists → https://awesomerank.github.io/

Both are great jumping-off points.

The rise of all those *awesome-lists* on GitHub, community-curated indexes of tools, libraries, projects, knowledge.

It’s great that they exist... but also a bit of an indictment of search engines, isn’t it?

If there’s one thing Google was supposed to be good at, it’s *categorizing things*.
And yet we rely on random devs to build better topic maps than trillion-dollar algorithms.

Missed opportunity? Too much manual work? Or maybe the web’s gotten too messy for even Google to map properly.

...continuing down the #Knoppix memory lane

Say you need to run some obscure, ancient #DOS utility, maybe something from a relic like *Hiren’s BootCD*. 💾

You (or a friend) have an old diskless PC lying around.
No USB? No problem as long as it still has a working CD/DVD drive.
(Younger folks may need to Google what that is. 😄)

Boot it up with the Knoppix DVD version that includes Wine, and you’re set.
No secret rituals. No ten-step how-to thread required.

1️⃣ Open a terminal, create a working folder, and `cd` into it.
2️⃣ Run `wineconsole`.
3️⃣ Ignore any garbage output or “missing components” warnings.
4️⃣ Voilà — a black box window appears. You’re in DOS now.

“Hooray!” Or “Yahoo!” ...whichever flavor of joy your inner 1990s self prefers. 😎
