How to publish articles as GitHub Gists 🐙 https://git.io/gistpub | by https://git.io/ilyaigpetrov

How To Use GitHub Gists For Publishing Articles

GitHub Gists may be used not only for code snippets sharing but as a publishing platform for your articles.

Features And Restrictions Of GitHub Gists

Each gist is a git repo with restrictions and features:

  • You can't create folders in any branch of the repo.
  • Each file in the master branch larger than 1MB risks to be truncated so you can't add zip archive to master. But you may keep additional large files at another branches which can't be viewed on the gist page.
  • If you want to use images in your article but wish non-embedded images to be hidden on the gist page then you may keep them in non-master branch and reference by .//raw//foobar.jpg.

Introduction Into Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 (WSL2) for Beginners

WSL2 allows you to use Linux programs in a Linux shell (bash) inside your Windows 10 or above. It is mostly used to run programs for terminal (textual interface, not graphical). Launching graphical Linux programs is not covered in this tutorial.

CAUTION: Most of the commands must be executed with admin privileges (Start -> type "powershell" -> press "Run as Administrator").

Evaluate the Risk of Browser Extension Before Installing It by Reading the Source Code

This post is written for Manifest v2, Manifest v3 is not yet released at the moment.

Ok, kids, today we are going to scrutinize a source code of a browser extension to speculate about its risks.
First, you will need to know how to download or view browser extension source codes:

  1. Extension for Chromium/Chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chrome-extension-source-v/jifpbeccnghkjeaalbbjmodiffmgedin
  2. Right Click for FireFox: https://superuser.com/questions/771825/how-to-examine-source-code-of-firefox-extension-before-installing-it
