FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

This script allows you to install unsigned extensions (ones that aren't approved by Mozilla) on normal Firefox builds and the official Snap! That's right, no "Firefox Developer Edition" nonsense required!
This script is not well tested, like at all. This script might break things, possibly important things. You should probably take a backup of your Firefox profile before using it. You have been warned.
sudo apt install -y curl unzip zip
# Only needed when jailbreaking the Snap
Work in progress, I'll write this up properly when I'm done.
Almost all credit goes to @maxogden for putting me on to this and pointing me in the right direction for each of these items.
Prerequisites:
Docker on BTRFS is very buggy and can result in a fully-unusable system, in that it will completely butcher the underlying BTRFS filesystem in such a way that it uses far more disk space than it needs and can get into a state where it cannot even delete any image, requiring one to take drastic actions up to and including reformatting the entire affected BTRFS root file system.
According to the official Docker documentation:
btrfs requires a dedicated block storage device such as a physical disk. This block device must be formatted for Btrfs and mounted into /var/lib/docker/.
In my experience, you will still run into issues even if you use a dedicated partition. No, it seems it requires a standalone
Hello world!
As a video editor, researcher, digital media enthusiast, and lover of all things FLOSS, I've been on the hunt for an open source alternative to proprietary services like Otter.ai, Sonix, and Descript. I've pitched my idead on open-source-ideas, but I wanted to create a dedicated post for it so that it can reach as many people as possible.
A simple, easy-to-use application where users can dictate or upload audio or video files, and an automated transcript is generated. This transcript is synced to the audio track, clickable, and editable, so that users can skip to certain passages and refine the transcript accordingly.
The revised transcript can then be exported as plain text, .srt caption file (and other subtitle formats), .pdf, shareable web page, etc. for further processing.
This guide instructs you in how to unbrick an Amazon Kindle Paperwhite. The consequences of following it are your own responsibility. This method (opening the Kindle and using the serial interface) should be a last resort and should only be considered if other methods fail
I've been deceiving you all. I had you believe that Svelte was a UI framework — unlike React and Vue etc, because it shifts work out of the client and into the compiler, but a framework nonetheless.
But that's not exactly accurate. In my defense, I didn't realise it myself until very recently. But with Svelte 3 around the corner, it's time to come clean about what Svelte really is.
Svelte is a language.
Specifically, Svelte is an attempt to answer a question that many people have asked, and a few have answered: what would it look like if we had a language for describing reactive user interfaces?
A few projects that have answered this question:
