Sometimes I write things about technology.


If I told you the SHA256 for this sentence starts with 'c, 5, four, a, and a', would you believe me?

  • The oldest shark teeth are from the Early Devonian, about 410 million years old. These are without a doubt sharks, although different species than exist currently. The earliest fossil of a plant engaging in this evolutionary strategy is a 12 meter tall palm-like plant from China. It dates back, again, to the Early Devonian, but less than 400 million years ago.

    Which means the first toothed sharks predate the first plant which could be called a tree by 10 million years.

    Sharks are older than the rings of Saturn!











  • Lynx is awesome but not really suited for modern web pages. I’ve used lynx, elinks, browsh, and w3m. Tried chawan and brow6el. I really like browsh, but it uses a headless firefox though, so not really CLI/TUI. This is the newest CLI based browser I found, but I suppose it’s not a true CLI either; using chromium blob under the hood.






  • A couple I use (concept of not exact), that I haven’t seen in the thread yet:

    Using grep as diff: grep -Fxnvf orig.file copy.file

    Using xargs -

    xargs reads items from the standard input, delimited by blanks (which can be protected with double or single quotes or a backslash) or newlines, and executes the command (default is /bin/echo) one or more times with any initial-arguments followed by items read from standard input.

    EG: $ find ~/Pictures -name "*.png" -type f -print0 | xargs -0 tar -cvzf images.tar.gz
