Remove USB Guard From Ubuntu

Remove USB Guard From Ubuntu

If you're a sucker like me and installed usbguard on a Ubuntu variant you may find that you will have access to none of your usb devices at all, because F you. The installer automatically sets up the daemon which has no rules so will just block all of your devices. Doing a basic apt remove usbguard may fail at 25%, because also F you.

My kernel is version 4.15.0-47-generic, not sure if this stopped working at some point or what.

Regain Access

sudo echo "allow id *:*" > /etc/usbguard/rules.conf

sudo sed -i 's/PresentDevicePolicy=apply-policy/PresentDevicePolicy=allow/' /etc/usbguard/usbguard-daemon.conf

Working With Multiple Repositories On GitHub

Working With Multiple Repositories On GitHub

Most projects on GitHub have a main repository that's the focal point of activity. For example, the Example organization has the Example.com repository:

https://github.com/example/example.com

Developers of Example.com typically call this the 'upstream' repository. We'll come back to it in a moment.

Guido van Rossum's Tips for fast Python

Guido van Rossum11 Sep 2012 - Public

Some patterns for fast Python. Know any others?

  • Avoid overengineering datastructures. Tuples are better than objects (try namedtuple too though). Prefer simple fields over getter/setter functions.

  • Built-in datatypes are your friends. Use more numbers, strings, tuples, lists, sets, dicts. Also check out the collections library, esp. deque.

  • Be suspicious of function/method calls; creating a stack frame is expensive.
