Adding Stuff to Path

Welcome to another episode of Linux notes. Today, I'll briefly talk about adding stuff to Path on POSIX[1] systems.

So the PATH is a very long colon delimited string that gets extended whenever you add a new directory to it. It looks something like this:

/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/bin:/usr/local/sbin

Wordpress - Using two loops on a home.php with pagination on the second loop notes & examples

Problem

I have a layout where I need to show the most recent post in a different layout/design component and remaining posts, needed to have a separate layout/design. I also wanted to use pagination to show other posts instead of infinite scrolling because I do not prefer infinite scrolling. Using the count modulus was not going to be a viable option due to how the design needed to be implemented but I think it could work for someone with experience in PHP. When using the offset in the loop, it was changing on pagination so each page after the first page had different recent post.

This was troublesome but I think I have a solid working solution for having multiple loops it works for my needs.

🎯 Fluid Typography Utility Classes SASS mixin

✨ The idea of fluid typography has been around in application development for a while, but to make this work in the browser, developers had to use a variety of solutions.

👨‍💻 Depending on the viewport width, fluid typography adjusts nicely between the minimum and maximum value. Typically, it starts at a minimum value and stays constant until a certain screen width point, at which time it starts to rise. When it hits a maximum value at a different screen width, it keeps going with that maximum value.

👨‍🏫 For instance, if we wanted our font size to be between 2em and 3em, where 2em is the minimum size at the smallest viewport width of 320px and 3em is the maximum size at the highest viewport width of 1366px. Then our equation will look like this - font-size: calc(2em + 1 * (100vw - 320px) / 1046);

	Some findings related to usage of Let's Encrypt and Certbot:

	- Certs are valid for 90 days.
	- Can be generated with cli with challenges like DNS (TXT Records), HTTP (/.well-known/acme-challenge/<TOKEN>)
	- Wildcard certs can be generated with DNS challenge, but for auto-renew to work with this wildcard, DNS provider must have a certbot DNS plugin.
	- Refer: https://eff-certbot.readthedocs.io/en/stable/using.html#dns-plugins
	- Docker images: https://hub.docker.com/u/certbot
