Ask HN: Best to store, index and categorize audio recordings
If you're doing a pipelined bulk processing pass to add metadata tags after extracting them via Speech to text, or have delimited notes in a text file, or ... etc.
You might find ExifTool useful.
It's pure commandline (with a few third party GUI's IIRC) multiplatform and purpose built to display, edit, add media tags to all sorts of AV files.

Cleaning up my 200GB iCloud with some JavaScript
> Any method that I've found to clean them up (exporting the originals, deleting them from the library, and then re-importing the JPEGs only seems easiest) will lose all of the years of metadata that I've built up in the library.
The open source tool osxphotos (https://github.com/RhetTbull/osxphotos) can help with this. You can export the JPEG images while preserving metadata using the thrid-party exiftool utility:
`osxphotos export /path/to/export --has-raw --skip-raw --exiftool`
This exports all images that have a raw pair but skips the raw component then uses exiftool (https://exiftool.org/) to write the metadata (keywords, etc.) to the exported JPEG files. You can then re-import these into photos either by dragging them or by running `osxphotos import /path/to/export/*`
Both the export and import commands have many other options for controlling export directory, etc. `osxphotos help export` or `osxphotos docs` to open docs in browser. (Disclaimer: I'm the author of osxphotos)

JPEG XL: How It Started, How It’s Going
I think TIFF has some unique features that makes it more prone to certain security issues[1] compared to other formats, such as storing absolute file offsets instead of relative offsets. So I am not sure TIFF is a good container format, but many camera raws are TIFF-based for some reason.[2]

Which synchronization tool are you using together with the pCloud Crypto Folder?
rsync can be used to synchronize a local disk to the pCloud drive p. Works similarly as the Sync option of the pCloud Drive app. May be useful if one prefers a bulk upload once a day over a continuous synchronization.

Use rsync to Sync a Node Project to Dropbox and Ignore the node modules Folder
To overcome this issue, you can use rsync, a powerful command-line tool for synchronizing files and directories, along with a bash script that excludes the node_modules folder and also filter out anything in a .gitignore file that you specify. In this article, I'll guide you through the process of setting up and using this bash script to sync your Node.js project while ignoring the node_modules folder.

Is there backup software that accounts for moved and renamed files?
I would prefer to use a revision control system, like git if keeping multiple versions of documents is important. Otherwise, if you don't find anything else to your liking, you could write your own scripts based on rsync with the clone-dest, detect-renamed, and detect-renamed-lax patches.

LXC Backup in mode "suspend" suddenly fails
While researching this issue I stumbled upon this thread where someone found out that a rsync 3.2.3 / glibc bug (github issue) leads to the error Operation not supported (95).\ my Proxmox instance is also using rsync 3.2.3: root@proxmox:~# rsync -V rsync version 3.2.3 protocol version 31 In this thread I found it's recommended to upgrade to another rsync version, but I'm not really sure how.\ \ Any thoughts on this?
