chezmoi: manage your dotfiles across multiple, diverse machines, securely.
chezmoi helps you manage your personal configuration files (dotfiles) across multiple diverse machines. A single public branch in a single git repo serves as the source of truth, with machine-to-machine differences and integration with your password manager handled with templates. With chezmoi you can set up your personal environment on a new machine with just two short commands, with minimal dependencies. It runs on Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and even more esoteric operating systems like Termux and Windows.
In this lightning talk we'll dive straight in to getting started with chezmoi, take a quick peek under the hood to see is architecture and technical choices, and compare it with other dotfile managers.

With a bit of work, manuscript facsimiles, database query tools, and other items that a historian might need to have opened simultaneously can be sorted exactly how he/she wishes, freeing crucial time from organization for proper analysis. In this presentation, I explain how to optimize a multisource historical research workflow inside a tiling window manager ...

The lack of accessible quality healthcare is one of the biggest problems in Africa and other developing countries. This is not only due to the unavailability of resources, but also to the absence of a structured formative process for the design and management of healthcare facilities. This situation strongly contributes to deepening inequalities in access to quality healthcare. Through an Open Society Foundations funded project, the Mboalab aims to remedy these inequalities by building ...

We present GossipSub, a gossip-based pubsub protocol, which, in contrast to past pubsub protocols, incorporates resilience against a wide spectrum of attacks. Firstly, GossipSub's mesh construction implements an eager push model keeps the fan-out of the pubsub delivery low and balances excessive ...
