Robust proper Instalation of nvm, npm, node and nodemon in debian/ubuntu based linux distributions

If you're having trouble installing nodemon globally like I was these steps solved it for me.

install npm with the following commands

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

As weird as it sounds this issues can be fixed by editing your grub config file /etc/default/grub

#open grub config file. NOTE: I prefer nano for little edits like this though you may use the editor of your choice :)
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
  • You will see line that says GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
  • change that line to read GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i8042.reset i8042.nomux i8042.nopnp i8042.noloop" be sure to save the changes and exit back to the command line

First install festival and a default voice

sudo apt-get install festival festvox-kallpc16k

Check to make sure your sound is working Then... you can test that it's working by typing

echo "I am not a robot" > festival_test

GitHub Standard Fork & Pull Request Workflow

Whether you're trying to give back to the open source community or collaborating on your own projects, knowing how to properly fork and generate pull requests is essential. Unfortunately, it's quite easy to make mistakes or not know what you should do when you're initially learning the process. I know that I certainly had considerable initial trouble with it, and I found a lot of the information on GitHub and around the internet to be rather piecemeal and incomplete - part of the process described here, another there, common hangups in a different place, and so on.

In an attempt to coallate this information for myself and others, this short tutorial is what I've found to be fairly standard procedure for creating a fork, doing your work, issuing a pull request, and merging that pull request back into the original project.

Creating a Fork

Just head over to the GitHub page and click the "Fork" button. It's just that simple. Once you've done that, you can use your favorite git client to clone your repo or j
