How to create an HTTPS certificate for localhost domains

This focuses on generating the certificates for loading local virtual hosts hosted on your computer, for development only.

Do not use self-signed certificates in production ! For online certificates, use Let's Encrypt instead (tutorial).

Using IBM Watson Speech to Text API to translate a ProPublica podcast

An example of using the Watson Speech to Text API to translate a podcast from ProPublica: How a Reporter Pierced the Hype Behind Theranos

This is just a simpler demo of the same technique I demonstrate to make automated video supercuts in this repo: https://github.com/dannguyen/watson-word-watcher

The transcription takes just a few minutes (less if you parallelize the requests to IBM) and is free...but it isn't perfect by any means. It doesn't fare super well on proper nouns:

• Charles Ornstein's last name is transcribed as Orenstein
• John Carreyrou's last name becomes John Kerry Roo

System Design Cheatsheet

Picking the right architecture = Picking the right battles + Managing trade-offs

Basic Steps

1. Clarify and agree on the scope of the system

• User cases (description of sequences of events that, taken together, lead to a system doing something useful)
  • Who is going to use it?
  • How are they going to use it?

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.
