PDF tools for comparing PDFs visually (overlaying two PDFs to see changed areas) and using a perceptual hash (numerical value indicating visual difference between the two files).
Useful for command line review of PDFs and de-duplication. Configure git to use these tools for better PDF history / comparison in git.
These scripts require imagemagick and poppler. Both installed from homebrew.
Setup git to use a custom diff using:
This guide is for homelab admins who understand IPv4s well but find setting up IPv6 hard or annoying because things work differently. In some ways, managing an IPv6 network can be simpler than IPv4, one just needs to learn some new concepts and discard some old ones.
Let’s begin.
First of all, there are some concepts that one must unlearn from ipv4:

random.SystemRandom uses os.urandom as a source of bytes, but doesn't provide a way to use a different source of bytes.
So stream_random.py is exactly that.
Then kms_random.py has raw and buffered bytestreams pulling from KMS.GenerateRandom.
The main interface is kms_random.get_kms_random(boto3_session, buffer_size=None). The default buffer size is 16, chosen arbitrarily.
I do not vouch for the randomness properties of the results.

This document isn't an explainer on Feature Flags, you can find that with my amateur writeup, or literally hundreds of better writeups out there.
This document is also agnostic to the choice of service you'd use: LaunchDarkly or split.io or optimizely or whatever; that's orthogonal to this conversation.
Instead, this document is a list of considerations for implementing a client for using Feature Flags for User Interface development. Service providers usually give a simple fetch and use client and that's it; I contend that there's a lot more to care about. Let's dive in.
To encourage usage, we'd like for the developer experience to be as brutally simple as possible. So, this should be valid usage:
