A bunch of quite useful tricks. Some I already used and other's are new. Here are the headings:
- Forward Yubikey Agent
- Reuse connections
- SSH straight into tmux
- Alias commonly used hosts
- Do not add testing stuff to ~/.ssh/known_hosts
- Make connections last longer
- Canonicalize hostnames
- Yubikey and GitHub, without touching it every time
I find it quite helpful to create a persistent connection to github. It greatly reduces my connection latency for pushing and pulling.
A Preprocessor Iceberg Meme on C preprocessor magic. Similar to "The Cursed Computer Iceberg Meme".
The basilisk collection (also known as the basilisk file or basilisk.txt) is a collection of over 125 million partial hash inversions of the SHA-256 cryptographic hash function. Assuming state-of-the art methods were used to compute the inversions, the entries in the collection collectively represent a proof-of-work far exceeding the computational capacity of the human race.
This is a grand work of fiction.
The author has another fiction on the concept named "Clairvoyant Computing": https://suricrasia.online/unfiction/CSC218-Software-Precognance.pdf
