Use this trick to bulk delete your old repos or old forks

(Inspired by https://medium.com/@icanhazedit/clean-up-unused-github-rpositories-c2549294ee45#.3hwv4nxv5)

1. Open in a new tab all to-be-deleted github repositores (Use the mouse’s middle click or Ctrl + Click) https://github.com/username?tab=repositories

2. Use one tab https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/onetab/chphlpgkkbolifaimnlloiipkdnihall to shorten them to a list.

3. Save that list to some path

4. The list should be in the form of “ur_username\repo_name” per line. Use regex search (Sublime text could help). Search for ' |.*' and replace by empty.

❓ Interview Questions to Ask Prospective Employers as a Software Developer ❓

I've been a part of this industry at a professional level for more than two decades now, and in that time I've worked for some AMAZING companies ... and a couple of appalling ones as well. All of that experience helped me to realise the FIRST LAW OF PROFESSIONAL SOFTWARE ENGINEERING:
