I've been having fun with IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) again, & I just used it to make my resume easily available online. IPFS is a free and open source protocol that lets you make files of any kind globally available without using DNS/websites & with nothing but a laptop running the IPFS app. No server setup needed. It can be used with folders as well, so I plan to eventually use it to make a static website. Here's my current resume on the Pinata gateway: https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/bafkreigpjsz3x6ge7lxx3nevijv76lq2tkvh6scw7dyer5cydayqlo3dru Note that since the file's ID is based on its content, any future versions of my resume will not be available at that ID-specific link. I would eventually like to experiment with IPNS (InterPlanetary Name System) so that I can share a single ID which can point to changeable content. IPNS is a great way to host your own website without needing to use a website domain. #ipfs #resume #websites #decentralized #peertopeer

I got to use the Python tool for deleting files from Git history called git-filter-repo for the first time. It was easy to use & ran quickly. Git's website recommends using it instead of Git's own filter-branch command:

Hopefully I'll try out Jujutsu (jj) someday for the same purpose. It looks like a very promising Git alternative since it's simpler & it's compatible with all services that use Git, like GitLab & Bitbucket, because it can optionally use Git under the hood. Here's the Jujutsu documentation if you want to learn more:

Hi, @Mike Dilger ☑️. I found a bug in v0.14.0 of Gossip for Linux that let's me open the app without entering a passphrase. Should I share the details in a direct message?

I just discovered the API client, Insomnia, which is a completely free & open source alternative to Postman. I was having header issues with Postman, but Insomnia's intuitive interface helped me resolve the issue right away. Try it out at https://insomnia.rest/download.

For my fellow software developers interested in learning Rust, here's a great intro video to the Tokio runtime for asynchronous/concurrent programming:
