TWIN TUI WM: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?
Project Page: https://github.com/cosmos72/twin
So, picture this: A window manager that is 100% text user interface (TUI). It’s simple and to the point. You open a terminal in Linux or maybe you are working on headless system with no GUI. You use /usr/bin/twin
and now you can open multiple terminals in one terminal without the weird shortcuts of Screen or Tmux. It works like every other GUI environment and has the feel of early 90’s MSDOS.
WEB OF DEPENDANCIES
I think it’s far past time for Linux distributions to really rework how they handle dependencies. I remember installing a graphical tool not long ago that had to dependancy of a dependancy that required emacs. I love emacs, but this is beyond silly. I think there should be a way to map out applications and their dependancies and draw a line between a tool not being able to work altogether and some edge case utility that the software provides that requires the dependancy.
INTERVIEW NOTES
A couple of weeks ago I had an interview with that company that I really wanted to work for. I won’t say who it was. I’ll just say that it would have been an ideal position for me. In order to prepare, I wrote a list of talking points that I anticipated could be discussed during the interview and I had them ready. Since this was an online interview, I had the privilege to have this with me. If this were a face to face interview, I would have just memorized them beforehand to the best of my ability. Since I suspect that I didn’t get the job, you might wonder if this exercise worth doing, I think think it is. It helped me to focus on what I wanted to say and not go off on weird tangents (like I sometimes do).
RSS SAVER
When I was reviewing OSINT tools from the Intel Techniques course, I wondered if there is a better way to keep track of what’s going on with a specific website. You could screenshot that website multiple times per day, every day, but that could be tiresome and potentially rate-limited.

MOVING AND JOB HUNTING AGAIN
So, I’m on the job hunt again and looking at moving again. This was supposed to have happened almost 2 years ago but life threw me a curve ball. I will be moving from Prague to the US but first I need a job.
HOW TO USE USENET FOR RESEARCH AND OSINT INVESTIGATIONS
OSINT, especially the SOCMINT (Social Media Intelligence) specialty, is often focused on widely used social media platforms like Twitter/X, Facebook, etc. However, there are lesser-known alternatives, such as Usenet, that can be a goldmine for OSINT investigations.
HOW DO I USE AI FOR APPLYING FOR JOBS?
That’s easy. I use it for grammar and spell checking for cover letters and my resume.

The question
I recently ask the following question to both Grok (paid account) and ChatGPT 4o (free account).
PODMAN AND MY HUGO DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT
I prefer to keep my main OS clean and uncluttered, avoiding installing too many programs that I don’t use frequently. When I first learned about virtual machines (VMs) many years ago, I realized how useful they could be for experimenting without risking my main system.
