Ask HN: Can I see your scripts?
Few years ago, I needed a quick way to create Qemu VM's locally for testing some weird software configurations. So I made a script to pull Ubuntu cloud images and clone them into qcow2 disks, then create and register libvirt virtual machines. Part of the "magic" was creating a cloud-config ISO image that would be mounted to pre-seed the VM on first launch. It also pushed my ssh key into the VM so I wouldn't need to use passwords. Janky, but worked well for what I needed.

Ask HN: Tools you have made for yourself?
I made a little script for quickly spinning up KVM virtual machines on my testing rig. It just grabs a minimal Ubuntu image, preseeds it with a ssh key, clones a VM on the default NAT network, and sets up the disk size/CPUs/memory allocation. It's not meant to replace orchestration or config management tools, just for quick and dirty VMs.

Hired: A Modern Take on 'Ed'
That’s the same as bat:[1] one of the features is syntax highlighting. Kind of unexpected to find a concatenation program… which also does that.

Ugrep – a more powerful, ultra fast, user-friendly, compatible grep
Good find, thanks! I'll check if I prefer it to moar.
As for bat, according to https://github.com/sharkdp/bat#using-bat-on-windows, the Chocolatey package simply installs `less` alongside `bat`. Seems like a good idea, but I haven't tried it.

Tell HN: Please don't print –help to stderr in your CLI tools
For this reason I have a zsh function in my .zshrc with bat (which pages by default, if it's longer than your console height):
