Using hash to compare files
You should check out my program dano. It has a dupe detection function.
-
Use `dano` to find duplicate media files
dano is a wrapper for ffmpeg that checksums the internal file streams of ffmpeg compatible media files, and stores them in a format which can be used to verify such checksums later. This is handy, because, should you choose to change metadata tags, or change file names, the media checksums should remain the same.
- verify files excluding metadata using ffmpeg

Name a program that doesn't get enough love!

Frustration with Linux'y installs... just venting....
My best advice (from a person who knows only enough to package his own projects) is it depends on the project. For my own Rust projects, I've found a Debian autopackager called cargo-deb for cargo. I convert those deb packages to rpm with alien. I upload both to the repo manually, and have a script which generates what I need and uploads to a PPA.

Ubuntu/Debian Users: Something to be thankful for -- a `httm` PPA
The meaty part of the holidays comes a little early this year for Ubuntu/Debian users, as I've prepared a special treat -- a PPA for httm (and dano)!

How you protect and back up your music? I have an external drive and I am afraid that one day it will be damaged and I will lose everything
If you use something like ZFS, then you have a system thats watching your entire data path. If you're not paranoid, afraid of other ways your data can be corrupted, bit rot, etc. (again you do you), you might still want to look at a program I wrote awhile ago, dano, and have a system to periodically verify the data on disk.

Using `httm` and ZFS to detect file modifications for `dano` (or getting a little sleazy to do a little good)
One thing ZFS doesn't do (and thank goodness it doesn't?), it doesn't detect out-of-band changes to files. If a program has the permissions to modify a file, ZFS happily modifies that file. But, for some files (and for the truly paranoid), we may want to keep additional metadata about file integrity. For instance, FLAC files keep checksums of its music streams. A program I wrote, dano, provides a way to do the same for all FFMPEG compatible media streams.

`dano` verifies your FLAC hashes 50% faster than `flac`
Packages and source available for dano at the following link.

A ‘Software Developer’ Knows Enough to Deliver Working Software Alone and in Teams
It depends on the scale of the project but man, if you can't build a simple CRUD app in your preferred stack and deploy it in some fashion (even if it's just a binary posted on some website, kinda like Exa) then that's just disappointing...
-
Which 2nd language should I learn?
Can compile to a single binary to build tools like exa
- Exa Is Deprecated
- ls -l IN COLOR!

What's your favorite Go architecture for a new micro-service? Here's mine...
Try https://github.com/ogham/exa and exa -T -L2 command . It will generate a good folder structure tree to update the question

macOS Command-Line Tools You Might Not Know About
Some of us don't want all of GNU's utilities; just on an as-needed basis. They're not as needed as they once were.
Many of these utilities have been rewritten in Rust and have more modern features.
For example, instead of ls, I use exa [1]. Or ripgrep [2] instead of grep.

List of apps I use every day - Version 2023
fish: A very fast shell with various customization options to streamline daily commands. I discovered it through this post by @caarlos0, where he provides more details about performance and the differences between fish and zsh. Additionally, I use some CLI utilities like delta, exa, and ripgrep. Here's my dotfiles for fish.

Ls with icons
Hi! I use this: https://the.exa.website, and the package to this: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/exa/

Everything I Installed on My New Mac
I still use exa for listing files in the terminal. It's a modern replacement for ls with a lot of useful features. With icons, colors, and git integration, it makes listing files much nicer.
