Install TrueNAS SCALE on a partition instead of the full disk

The TrueNAS installer doesn't have a way to use anything less than the full device. This is usually a waste of resources when installing to a modern NVMe which is usually several hundred of GB. TrueNAS SCALE will use only a few GB for its system files so installing to a 16GB partition would be helpful.

The easiest way to solve this is to modify the installer script before starting the installation process.

Add a filter to git config by running the following command in bash inside the repo:

git config filter.strip-notebook-output.clean 'jupyter nbconvert --ClearOutputPreprocessor.enabled=True --to=notebook --stdin --stdout --log-level=ERROR'

Create a .gitattributes file inside the directory with the notebooks
Add the following to that file:

*.ipynb filter=strip-notebook-output

Code is clean if it can be understood easily – by everyone on the team. Clean code can be read and enhanced by a developer other than its original author. With understandability comes readability, changeability, extensibility and maintainability.

General rules

Follow standard conventions.
Keep it simple stupid. Simpler is always better. Reduce complexity as much as possible.
Boy scout rule. Leave the campground cleaner than you found it.
Always find root cause. Always look for the root cause of a problem.

Design rules

Ubuntu Grub Boot Kernel

Boot a specific installed Ubuntu kernel using grub-reboot and grub-set-default.

This allows you to pick what kernel you want to boot on next reboot, or set the default, without having to know much about how grub works or editing config files.

Usage

  Usage: boot-kernel [options] [kernel]

call grub-reboot or grub-set-default to boot the provided kernel.

Navigating the modes of Vim

This diagram illustrates navigating through Vim’s modes. It was built factoring Vim 9 (i.e., all its modes, including up to two new modes, cr and cvr, in November 2023). Information about the state() and 'showmode' is provided too.

SVG version

Some features are only available in the SVG version. It is not provided directly from within this gist’s files because SVGs do not always play nicely in GitHub (particularly, refusing to display embedded fonts).

The SVG version includes hover text help, which shows pertinent information about the underlying key, command, mode, etc.

	; This script creates a dark mode for specific windows by inverting their colors.
	; It uses the Windows Magnifier in the background for the color inverting, but it only inverts just the rectangle in place
	; of the specific windows, NOT the whole screen like the Magnifier applicaion does. This is possible through DLL calls.
	; Big thanks to the original source at https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?p=563023#p563023.

	; Requirements:
	; - AutoHotkey needs to be installed in C:\Program Files (or use the workaround from https://www.reddit.com/r/AutoHotkey/comments/16ux144/ui_access_without_reinstalling_in_program_files_v2/).
	; - In the 'Launch Settings' of 'AutoHotkey Dash' you need to enable 'UI Access'.
