Quick Jupyter Notebook Launcher for KDE

A simple right-click menu option to launch containerized Jupyter notebooks in any directory.

I recently got a WD SN850. There is a little trick to do when you receive it to switch it to 4k LBA and thus getting better performance by using native block size.

I finally put my hands on a Trinket M0 for the Trackpoint. Meaning, no more ugly driver.

A friend of mine Pierre Grangé-Praderas needed to make a webpage with graphs. So I decided to play with Cytoscape and Hugo and see if I could integrate them together.

I spent a day adding a trackPoint to my keyboard to avoid having to move all the time to the trackball. I wanted something that would allow me to quickly jump from one window to another while keeping my hands on the keyboard.

Took me some time to learn how SNMP v3 (and SNMP in general) works. But now I have nice dashboards.

When using docker in LXD/LXC, the FS performance is really really bad.

I needed to run Docker in LXC containers on my Ubuntu servers.

I’m now a heavy user of Draw.io a great piece of Free software from jgraph. However sometimes I need to use it offline… Here is an easy guide on how to use it locally.

I’m moving all my old file-based ssh and gpg keys to a YubiKey 4 hardware key. This post will get updated with a few notes along that migration. It also covers how to use pass and pass-tomb with these. And then I fell down the rabbit hole of using those keys everywhere…

[Draft published as is, this is old.] I am playing with Pulsar and Heron in Kotlin. And I was always struggling with getting my kotlin project packaged properly. Here is a walk-through.

I was complaining on IRC about someone sending me a screenshot as a word file. Then my friend Aaron Lav had a comment that I turned into that project.

How to update the PERC6/i firmware from Linux.

I made some new stuff on this project. Now it has a “working” pre-prototype that can do Wifi+RFID+WS2812 Led ring.

Using magit-status each time or having to type the commands was boring.

Today I had to automate changing some IDs in Protege.

Today I received an alert from my work email about a mailbox too full.

To test the ESP, the Arduino system is good enough. I’ll explain here the steps to install it.

How to connect the ESP8266 and how to communicate with the default non-free firmware to test the device.

I just received my ESP8266-12F from Electrodragon. I’m going to document the steps to use that thing on a GNU/Linux machine.

Tonight, I played with git hooks. Because I wanted to be able to regenerate the website remotely just by doing a push to a specific branch of the website repo.

I use Notmuch to manage my emails (and that’s just wonderfully fast) and use the Emacs frontend for it. But when I wanted to save attachements, it was not that easy to create folders. I had to exit the save, open a terminal, a dired or whatever create the folder… I use Helm for managing completion in emacs (and that’s a nice piece of software too).

To avoid that and with the help of Sacha Chua, I managed to add a shortcut in helm read file:
