  1. savepagenow

    A simple Python wrapper and command-line interface for archive.org’s "Save Page Now" capturing service

    It might already be somewhere in all the replies, but the wayback machine- https://archive.org/web/ is super helpful if you're looking for a page that no longer exists, or if you want to see a historic snapshot of a webpage. Helpful for information that has moved!

  3. web

    The source code for the Standard Ebooks website. (by standardebooks)

    Standard Ebooks is a volunteer-driven effort to produce a collection of high quality, carefully formatted, accessible, open source, and free public domain ebooks that meet or exceed the quality of commercially produced ebooks. The text and cover art in our ebooks is already believed to be in the public domain, and Standard Ebooks dedicates its own work to the public domain, thus releasing the entirety of each ebook file into the public domain. All the ebooks we produce are distributed free of cost and free of U.S. copyright restrictions.

  4. stylegan2-pytorch

    Simplest working implementation of Stylegan2, state of the art generative adversarial network, in Pytorch. Enabling everyone to experience disentanglement

    You should have a look at Chocolatey. It's basically Ninite on steroids. Giant software repository, relatively up to date, installing and updating via PowerShell. It's amazing.

  6. khan-api

  8. duckduckgo-locales

    Translation files for <a href="https://duckduckgo.com"> </a>

    If your searching for tech answers, I strongly suggest using duckduckgo.com instead of google. Google algorithms have been gamed over the years. For tech questions they all return poor results, where DDG does not. Many of us have made the switch.

    With today's hubbub over Twitch being hacked and their information being leaked, I'd like to bring up BitWarden, which is one of the better free password managers, and has been extremely useful today in securing my various accounts (because I'm a dumb-dumb who used the same password everywhere, so one leak and I had to change everything...). It was super easy to install and add everything to, and now I'm annoyed that I hadn't done it sooner.

  15. Frontpage
