Python script to uncompress all the rar files in the current directory and delete the compressed .rar afterwards. It uses several system subprocesses in parallel to speed-up the process. Also valid if the files are protected with a password. Requires the rarfile (https://pypi.org/project/rarfile/) package
import glob
import multiprocessing
import os
import rarfile
NUM_PROCESSES = 5
PASSWORD = None # Set to a string if the rar files are protected with a password

curl exercises

In this gist I'll upload the solutions to the 21 curl exercises proposed by Julia Evans on this blogpost. While curl definitely isn't a life-changing skill, it's a tool that can be really useful once you master it, and considering the low investment that is required it's definitely a good time investment

All the solutions contain the command that needs to be run to solve the exercise; apart from that, some of them will include also the response that we've obtained, or a small explanation about the different arguments of the command that we've used. That will make it easier for people reading this to get a better understanding of the solution.
