Well, seems like you've found this not-so-secret page :)
This is where I keep my bookmarks or things
that I learned. It's meant to be a public archive of things that I find interesting and useful whether it be
an article, random thoughts, videos, literally anything. I hope you find something useful here too!
A website that lists design systems by various companies. Contains a lot of useful demos and stuff.
Resource for how to protect your privacy. Contains a lot of useful information and has a very good structure. Covers quite a lot of topics regarding protecting your privacy.
My deep sleep was not working when I closed the lid of my laptop since Fedora 40. It was caused by the mem_sleep mode
set to s2idle instead of deep, no idea what changed it, but here’s the solution.
Check if the current mode is s2idle:
$ cat /sys/power/mem_sleep
[s2idle] deep
To change that to deep:
$ sudo sh -c 'echo deep > /sys/power/mem_sleep'
It should now be fixed:
$ cat /sys/power/mem_sleep
s2idle [deep]
Also, add the following to /etc/default/grub:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="mem_sleep_default=deep"
And update grub (you might need to adjust this command to your system):
$ sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
An introduction to Bloom Filters with visualisations. Bloom Filters isn’t quite an easy concept to grasp, so understanding how Hashing works is a good start.
A short and concise summary of the Clean Code book by Robert C. Martin. It contains some of the most important principles and practices from the book.
A basic introduction to hashing, with some visualisations to help understand the concepts. A great article to read and easy to grasp.
A book about Site Reliability Engineering by Google. It covers several topics such as what is an SRE, what they do, and how they do it. It also covers the principles and practices of SRE.
Resource by Ruangguru for building a scalable web application. At the time of writing it looks pretty bland, but I’m sure it will be updated in the future.
A guide on how to write HTTP service using Go coming from someone with 13 years of experience. I think it’s a good one, even though I don’t really agree with some points, but that’s probably because I never encountered the issue that they had.
It covers some fundamental differences between Go and Java Garbage Collector and why Go doesn’t need Java-style GC because it doesn’t have the same problem that Java has.
A short and well written article listing some tips to becoming a better programmer. It’s written sort of like wisdoms in programming, if you will.
A very good resource to get started with shaders. It covers a bunch of stuff, although at the time of adding this, it doesn’t have a 3D section yet. Pretty much a book in form of a website.
A good reference if you’re looking for a list of resource to read regarding distributed systems. The author also added their own comments on each resource, which is a nice touch.
A great article on how to read scientific papers. It answers quite a few concerns that I had about reading scientific papers.
A good introduction to SQL for those who are new to it. It uses SQLite for the examples, but it should be universal enough that it can be used with any other SQL databases. It’s quite comprehensive and covers a lot of ground.
A bunch of tutorials on how to write shaders for 3D games. It covers quite a lot of different types of shaders, and it’s a great resource for anyone who wants to learn how to write shaders for 3D games.
