It's all the rage these days. Let's collect the ones we've heard about so far.
- ChatGPT, a conversational bot.
- Scribble Diffusion, turn a scribble (and an associated text prompt) into a refined image. Powered by ControlNet. Simple to use, generated images 512px square and easy to download. Seems to work well in Chromium, less so in Firefox.
I'm well aware there are like a 100 more, will add to this list as I get time.
On a related note, it's too bad Shaarli does not allow others to edit or at least comment on posts.
But if you really want, I guess you could open the post on its own page (see permalink below) and annotate that page using Hypothes.is.

It's time to give up Github. This is my attempt to decrease my use of their "starred repo" functionality, which only helps Microsoft build a more valuable social graph.
I usually use the "star" function in one of two ways: either as a reminder to myself to check back on the project later, or as a way to promote the project (assuming Github will somehow increase the visibility of starred projects).
I reckon both of these abilities can be reproduced by hosting the list myself. Granted, the promotional value for the project is much smaller this way, but in any case the method used by Github to promote starred repos is based on some opaque and unknowable algorithm, and in all likelihood my "stars" were not making much of a difference apart from boosting the egos of some small-project owners (I'm one of them, so I know the feeling). But that's just another way that Github tries to trap us, by gamifying parts of the experience.
In any case, better federation across Gitea instances might help to establish a better way to "star" projects.
I intend to organise this list in the future, but for now, in no particular order:

Gitea is great. So is Codeberg. The ability to share repos, issues, and users across Gitea instances, would be awesome.
Git itself is already federated and decentralised, but there is still a need for federation of the remote repo and its facilities.
The idea of some sort of federation between Gitea instances has been around since 2016.

RSS-Bridge
RSS-Bridge is a PHP project capable of generating RSS/Atom feeds for a multitude of sources. You self-host it on your own webserver or run it in stand-alone CLI mode.
Supports a long list of content sources (aka bridges).
RSSHub
RSSHub (over 17k stars on Github, wow!). It even has a browser extension and a mobile app. Docs.
Via reddit
"Kill the Newsletter!"
Kill the Newsletter!, by Leandro Facchinetti. Converts email newsletters into Atom feeds.
You can use the hosted service kindly offered by its creator, or self-host it yourself.
Via reddit.
FiveFilters
Web service that lets you create RSS feeds for any web sites that don't support it natively, among other useful content-related services. Offers a free tier, no account necessary. Paying customers also get access to the code and the ability to self-host the service (FiveFilters provide Puppet scripts).
FiveFilters maintains an open-source repo with site-specific content extraction rules that is widely used.
Feed43
Web service that lets you create RSS feeds for any web sites that don't support it natively. Offers a free plan, with or without first registering an account, but the code behind the service is proprietary.
RSS Box
RSS Box by Stefan Sundin, supports:
- Twitter (but Nitter may be better, also see this excellent guide by FiveFilters)
- Youtube (YT actually offers RSS feed per channel, also consider Invidious)
- Vimeo
- Instagram (another option is Bibliogram)
- Periscope
- SoundCloud
- Mixcloud
- Twitch
- Speedrun
- Dailymotion
- Imgur
- SVT Play

Where to find e-books
- Standard Ebooks, a curated collection of free and libre ebooks. Via reddit.
- Project Gutenberg, a large collection of free ebooks.
- Litteraturbanken, svenska klassiker. Via egen länknot.
- Z-Lib ,
z-lib.orgdomain seized, access via TOR or "personal domains" instead. - Library Genesis
- Anna's Archive, an open-source search engine for shadow libraries like Sci-Hub, Libgen, and Z-Library that aims to catalog all books in existence. Via TorrentFreak.
- The Internet Archive books collection. Very varying quality, some only for lending (via libraries), not download.
- Open Library, an open, editable library catalog by the Internet Archive. I'm not sure how it relates to IA's book collection.
- OpenStax, a growing collection of chemistry/physics/math textbooks made available under open licenses.
- World Bank's open knowledge repository, over 34000 publications.
- BookFinder, a search engine for new, used, and out-of-print books.
- AbeBooks, another search engine for used and out-of-print books.
Managing your ebook collection
- Calibre, the software for managing all aspects of your ebook library. Created by Kovid Goyal, maintained by hundreds of contributors. Project repo.
- For a full-fledged web interface to your Calibre library, look no further than Calibre-web. Just like Calibre's built-in server, Calibre-web also supports OPDS, which makes it easy to integrate with mobile apps such as Librera Reader.
- COPS, a Calibre PHP OPDS server. A less-powerful alternative to Calibre-web, in my opinion. But it served me well for some time before I discovered Calibre-web.
Tools for finding e-books
Reading e-books
Recently discovered Thorium Reader. Works very nicely on the Linux desktop and connects to our Calibre-Web OPDS server. My Ansible role.
Foliate is another nice desktop ebook reader. My Ansible role.
For reading on Android I use Librera Reader.

Any reversible physical process is an energy storage technology.
An interesting take from Technology Connections.
In this one, he reminds us that simple management of heat in our homes can amount to a simple and immediately available method to distribute energy use from the hours of peak demand.
Crooked Timber says: "energy storage is a solvable problem [...] concerns about the variability of wind and solar power will come to nothing in the end".
Moving rocks up and down former mine shafts could be a workable energy storage system.
The SI system
- A comprehensive (SI) units package for LaTeX, by Joseph Wright. I cannot recommend this package enough for all scientific or technical documents. CTAN.
Code examples
- Semiconductor pn-junction diagram in TikZ, by Erwann Fourmond (2016)
- Schematic TEM in TikZ, by Eric Jensen (2012)
- Oxidation of iron surface under a blob of water in TikZ, by Jason Waskiewicz (2010)

Templates
- LaTeX packages for CVs, resumés
- PhD thesis template for Cambridge university Engineering dept. Supports LaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX.
Integration with R
The ability to integrate any kind of R output into our LaTeX document is very useful, and the technology has reached a high degree of sophistication with knitr and tikzDevice (on the R side) and TikZ/PGF (on the LaTeX side).
- TikZDevice, an R package for producing graphics output as PGF/TikZ code for use in TeX documents. In other words, we start in R, generate an image, and export it to a TikZ picture. tikzDevice was developed around 2009 (here's an early demo) in concert with pgfSweave (this was before knitr entered the scene).
- dvir, offers the inverse approach to tikzDevice: we start in R, generate a TikZ picture, convert that to DVI, then import (and integrate) the result back into R. dvir is less popular than tikzDevice, and is currently not listed on CRAN (in fact, it clashes with an existing completely unrelated package named
dvir), but appears to have solid technical underpinnings, with LuaTeX support and LaTeX math support.
Integration with Inkscape
- SVG2TikZ, formally known as Inkscape2TikZ, is an Inkscape extension for exporting SVG paths as TikZ/PGF code.
Integration with Microsoft PowerPoint
- IguanaTeX is a PowerPoint add-in which allows you to insert LaTeX equations into your PowerPoint presentation.
Integration with git
- gitinfo2-latexmk, small tool that integrates latexmk and gitinfo2.
Integration with Zotero
- Better BibTeX, a Zotero extension that makes Zotero effective for LaTeX users.
Integration with the web
- TeX commands available in MathJax, a comprehensive list of all commands available in MathJax v2.7.1, by Carol Burns and edited by MathJax creator Davide Cervone. MathJax v2.7 is still widely used, but has technically been superseded by v3. MathJax.
- KaTeX, developed by Khan Academy. Known to be faster than MathJax, but supporting a smaller subset of TeX/LaTeX functions. Differences between the projects appear to be shrinking, though.
Cloud-based LaTeX
Other packages
- Beamer, package for producing presentations and slides. Github.
- FiXme, collaborative annotation tool for LaTeX. Github.

An aggregator is only as good as the OTAs (online travel agencies) it canvasses. There are booking engines that find prices themselves (Expedia, Priceline, Hotwire). And then there are aggregators—sites that do not book tickets but instead search dozens of booking engines, airfare sites, and OTAs and compile the results in one place; you then click through to the one of your choice to make the actual purchase.
