Mutt + isync mbsync + gmail + multiple accounts.

Mutt + isync multiple accounts Unfinished

This is the setup that I use for mutt, I have two google domain account (read as gmail) and an institution where I work and study account. This means I have two gmail accounts and one outlook 365 account that i want to sync and read via mutt.

I want to store all my email locally as I travel a lot and will be in countries without easy internet access. For this I use mbsync (iSync). As it can handle multiple account types easily and efficently.

The setup works this way

[Remote Mail Servers] <= mbsync => [Local Mail Folders]

Quick Tips for Fast Code on the JVM

I was talking to a coworker recently about general techniques that almost always form the core of any effort to write very fast, down-to-the-metal hot path code on the JVM, and they pointed out that there really isn't a particularly good place to go for this information. It occurred to me that, really, I had more or less picked up all of it by word of mouth and experience, and there just aren't any good reference sources on the topic. So… here's my word of mouth.

This is by no means a comprehensive gist. It's also important to understand that the techniques that I outline in here are not 100% absolute either. Performance on the JVM is an incredibly complicated subject, and while there are rules that almost always hold true, the "almost" remains very salient. Also, for many or even most applications, there will be other techniques that I'm not mentioning which will have a greater impact. JMH, Java Flight Recorder, and a good profiler are your very best friend! Mea

How to mount a qcow2 disk image

This is a quick guide to mounting a qcow2 disk images on your host server. This is useful to reset passwords, edit files, or recover something without the virtual machine running.

Step 1 - Enable NBD on the Host

modprobe nbd max_part=8
# alias to edit commit messages without using rebase interactive
# example: git reword commithash message
reword = "!f() {\n GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR=\"sed -i 1s/^pick/reword/\" GIT_EDITOR=\"printf \\\"%s\\n\\\" \\\"$2\\\" >\" git rebase -i \"$1^\";\n git push -f;\n}; f"
# aliases to change a git repo from private to public, and public to private using gh-cli
alias gitpublic="gh repo edit --accept-visibility-change-consequences --visibility public"
alias gitprivate="gh repo edit --accept-visibility-change-consequences --visibility private"
# delete all your repos using gh-cli (please do not run this unless you want to delete all your repos)
gh repo list --limit 300 --json url -q '.[].url' | xargs -n1 gh repo delete --yes

1. Ich denke, also ist es nicht XGH.
In XGH wird nicht gedacht, es wird das erste gemacht, was in den Sinn kommt. Es gibt auch keine zweite Option, die erste ist schneller.
2. Es gibt 3 Wege ein Problem zu lösen: den richtigen Weg, den falschen Weg und den XGH Weg, welcher exakt wie der falsche ist, aber schneller.
