Whenever I need to access a server running on an HPC which does not support ngrok or localtunnel or even gsocket; the fallback approach is always to rely on SSH port forwarding.

Very quick set of ugly commands to grab build environments.

Moving simple Fortran derived types to Python and back via C Background # Object oriented programming has been part of Fortran for longer than I have been alive 1.

My personal favorite for watching files and running context sensitive commands is to use the lovely filewatcher CLI utility written in Ruby. 1gem install filewatcher 2gem install filewatcher-cli This can then be used with: 1filewatcher '**/*.js' 'node $F…

nix aside1, I recently shifted to using asdf to manage different language versions. 1git clone https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf.git ~/.asdf --branch v0.8.1 The main reason to prefer asdf over competing language specific options like rvm or pyenv or nvm and
