Make sure to check out Patrick's course, I learned at bunch of cool tricks from it bit.ly/3anaaFh
Sure! Hopefully I'll learn more cool tricks than you!
I will not ruin the 69 sorry
this guy who is the tutorial instructor has very bad voice and it looks like it's not his own
The best thing about 100 second videos is taking the opportunity to listen to topics you might have ignored. This is a perfect example.
13:53
I love how he talks to us like we're mentally challenged. Really needed that to understand some of this topics
What do you mean 'like'?
we are tho 😂💀🤣🤦👏🤓💯♿🔥🗿🤯🫡😖🧢
Not the video we think we wanted, but the video we need
This is what Siri’s voice should sound like.
Lmao
lol
Sounds like Siri but Obama
Preach
Sounds like lord gaben recording the tutorial
I haven't thought of having my own dot files repo before. Thanks for this realization and another lesson!
Is it just me or does 100 seconds get longer each episode?
Is to avoid RUclips demonetization of short videos.
is it just me or is this video getting kinda thicccccccc
@@shashidhar71 oh, that's where generosity comes from
1000 seconds now
Good
Love how you're combining the short videos with the long. Best of both worlds.
A quick intro to Vim would be a good fit for a 100 seconds video -- what do you think?
I think we would need beyond 100 seconds version for vim
It's likely gonna be 99 seconds of how to exit vim ^^
I totally feel you
Be careful NOT to upload the .ssh dir to a public repo. This directory contains the ssh config file and private keys for logging into remote machines (Webservers etc.). If they would be public anyone could log into those machines and possibly get root access.
You should not upload such information period.
@@spell105 incorrect, failing to have these files backed up to an external source is, well, let's not beat around the bush it's bloody stupid. You *_should_* upload them to other places, but only to places you directly control and can ensure are secure. Frankly I wouldn't upload or backup *_anything_* I care about to an external service I don't manage. Some people mitigate this by only uploading encrypted copies, meaning the external service provider never gets an unencrypted version of any of your data, and that can be good for an offsite backup, but personally even that feels like flying a bit close to the sun if you ask me.
Another thing you should do if you care about security is put passwords on your SSH keys, so even if the keys get leaked they're still not usable. Alternatively you can buy a hardware security key and store keys on that instead, with the keyfiles only referencing the true resident keys stored on the hardware-key. Unfortunately as far as I understand it FIDO2 is not quantum safe so there is an arguable hit to your security if you go that route. To be clear, chances are you will never have someone attacking you via quantum cracking, but it *_is_* a weakness and there is already strong evidence that governments are following a "store now, decrypt later" approach. If quantum computers continue to improve at the same rate classical computers did, that *_does_* mean that, eventually, your data may be forcefully decrypted. Personally though I'd argue the benefit of using a FIDO2 resident key is that you can setup your SSH config to first require a resident key *_then_* require a password. This should mitigate the weakpoints of both while keeping the security layered so that if one is compromised the other should remain secure. Granted though, I'm not all that savvy when it comes to the nit and grit of cryptography so take that advice as exactly what it is; the ramblings of a jackass in a youtube comment section's replies.
You can use stow to do this very efficiently. You can even make a script running stow on every folder/file in your ~/.dotfiles folder and it will do the work for you.
This godlike voice of Patrick made me feel so safe...
12:36 a good tool to symlink everything is Stow
with dootfiles in ~/my_git_repos/dootfiles :
1. cd ~/my_git_repos
2. stow -v -R -t ~ dootfiles_folder
Dropping a like before I watch this video, 'cause I already know it's going to be good!
He sounds like nineties ads voice over
didn't realise soydevs knew what dotfiles where!!!!!
I like Jeff's content but I agree, he's a soydev.
Mom, I'm sorry, but you don't understand, he put my argument under an image of a soyjak, I have to kill myself
*were, Zing Fail.
just wait until you see my vim skills
@@Fireship vim in 100 seconds when?
I was watching videos about git bare repos and storing dotfiles 2 days ago and here you are!
Great timing!
The bare repo way looks more elegant to me (no ln links).
I'll try them both now
Exactly what I was wondering the whole video. Bare repos are really objectively better. You don't move files to other folders just commit them whey they live naturally.
@@WojciechFrancuzikwhat are bare repos? Can you recommend me a good one to try?
bruh this aint 100 seconds
Wait, Fireship's 100 seconds videos aren't 100 seconds?
🔫 Never we're.
Bro, you realize you’re supposed play this video in 8.33x speed and it’s 100 seconds, right? Are you dumb 😂
@@blackstone12 "never we are"
Using git and dotfiles in this way is something that never occurred to me. Thanks for the enlightenment!
Two points I'd make:
First, it's a fantastic video and tutorial.
Setting a git repository for one's dot files and dot directories will be so helpful for
1) the personalization of a rofi configuration. I spent over 2 hours getting rofi to work on a new machine as I had configured it on the first, and
2) it could be helpful for creating all the suggested subvolumes in btrfs, and
3) it could help with moving and symbolically linking Desktop, Documents, Pictures, Movies, Downloads, Templates, etc.from /home/user56 to /data/Users/user56/" on that separate partition as is suggested by tge folks who brilliantly work on siduction. See siduction manual about moving home.
Ive done this in other ways but just never connected the dots to do this with system file. Simple and usual. Thanks!
Patrick sounds like professional voice over guy!
this beyond 100 seconds video is beyond my expectation!
This was surprisingly valuable. Thank you Jeff and company.
Thank you Fireship and Patrick for this fantastic tutorial! Made everything so easy.
This is the ultimate procrastination task
Damn, how do you create those stunning animations? 😍
9:37 - Exiting Vim, LOL... So true. :)
Came for dotfiles
Stayed for Patrick's voice
This collab was fire
Love your content!! Please make a whole series on web dev. Love from INDIA!!
Thanks for the help on setting dotfiles up! This really helped me.
I'm gonna use symlinks too now! Thanks a lot both of you 😃
Symlinks are cool, but there are solutions to help you automate that part. I use Dotbot in the course.
One of these days I'll be bothered to make an install script for when I reinstall my OS.
I'm pretty sure that that day will be the last time I need to install my OS for the next ten years though.
OMG THAT VOICE!!!!!!!!
Oh my, thanks for the ⌘⇧.
I had no idea that shortcut exists. It's not even in the menu!
So many things I enjoyed about this video. Ty!!
I HAVE to ask if the guest has a Channel ?!
i would enjoy following him too
and i believe that it is not just me
Another option would be to use GNU Stow to manage your dotfiles.
I’m late but, A Boyz n’ the hood reference and on the first day of black history month? Well done, my friend. 👌🏾
Patrick needs to make videos on RUclips himself too 💪💪
I like using GNU Stow to manage symlinks from the dotfile repo.
The Only One Chanelle for developers
Udemy course purchased 👍
Not actually 100 Seconds but it still worth anyone's time.
Legend says this is going to be the next voice of Jarvis
And here was me thinking of making separate gists for each config file...
What is that music playing starting at 13:16? I've heard it in some of your other videos too, and it's amazing!!
10:08 "Exit Vim in half an hour" is a Western "How does one patch KDE2 under FreeBSD?" )
This is awesome, thank you
Thanks, this video is super useful!
Nice compromise with the 100 seconds series
well now we need a video for overlayfs
@0:40
I think it's time for projects to have .dot/ directory where all dot files could be put.
Otherwise project root dirs are too unwieldy.
Please make a similar video for windows and chocolaty
Did you find anything for windows?
@@BakrAli10 No I Don't use windows it this comment was for those pathetic people who still uses exes to install programmes.
I don't know what am I doing here. My main dev environment is in windows 😐
If u ever plan on making a vim in 100 consider covering neovim
A sure surprise, but a welcome one
Patrick's voice!!!
My workflow:
90% configuring bspwm
10% actual coding
Waiting for django video in 100 seconds
Excellent stuff
I know you mentioned you were struggling with the 100 second videos and viewership because of how short they are... maybe change them to 100 seconds and beyond? Catering to those that want the quick and concise summary and you can give more content to gain more viewership on the videos? Just a thought
Dofiles is the start, next evolution step is creating your own set of system packages for settings that cannot be done via settings at your $HOME.
Great video,Thanks
I would still prefer setup everything from scratch. It just makes me happy and excited!
What music do you use in your "X in 100 seconds" videos?
Darude - Sandstorm
Amazing video!
Every linux ricer in the area: dotfiles?
Just to confirm - is the point of the new /.dotfiles directory to avoid accidentally adding the whole /User directory to the git repo? I suppose if you have a lot of dotfiles then you'd want to be able to stage all changes quickly with "git add ." so you'd need the /.dotfiles directory. Are there other reasons too?
Why not just use the home directory as the repo and gitignore everything that isn't a .dotfile at the root?
Why use symlink instead of hard link?
Please make Ubuntu dotfiles video
....why doesn't Windows use dotfiles and uses some registry stuff instead (which you can't even backup)
What a voice
I might be one of those who prefer setting up everything from scratch on a new MacBook or a PC.
TIL substandard boomer programmers call 10x devs "soydevs"
You are either a boomer programmer or a soydev, there is no in between.
@@danielegvi I use MBP & VSCode with all those fancy stuff like Deno, Next.js, etc., but also love coding in c/c++ with NeoVim Fully Customized™ stuff. Where should I be in?
Why not make the home folder a repo, and gitignore all the content except the files you explicitly want to track? I find this overcomplicating something simple
Awesome!
I don’t use macOS, is the zshrc at all relevant to me?
The second Patrick started talkinig
I came...
Does macOS not use .config/
4:53 if you move the config files, would they still work?
ok, he then talks about simlink
Patrick sounds like a younger clone of Gabe Newell.
Nice
What language did you use when building Patrick? #PatrickIn100Seconds
"To *git* started", i heard that
😂💀🤣🤦👏🤓💯♿🔥🗿🤯🫡😖🧢
Imagine Patrick saying "In a World..."
No kidding his voice is like those old school no BS narrators.

@@Fireship
Hello,
I am learning Devops and I see you were taking recommendations.
Can you make these in 100 sec or more:
Ansible
Jenkins
Puppet
Chef
& other devops tools.
Thanks
.ssh folder MUST NOT be on github for safety reasons!
Yeah only the config stuff should be there
@@olirules1074 Even that is questionable. For example, the whole point of a hashed known_hosts file (which itself should probably not included in a public repository) becomes moot when your config file contains all those host names in the open.
also need the .passwd file in there
Ending every line of bash with a semicolon is the most soydev thing I've ever seen, I'm proud of you, Jeff!
Haha, it's his fault 👉 github.com/mathiasbynens/dotfiles
1:53 I though it was some kind of intro for Patrick
wait, why do I feel like it's more than 100 seconds?
You're listening at high speed so everything seems like slow motion, that's why.
cause this one also goes beyond 100 seconds after explaining it in 100 seconds
because it is
But their is security risk if someone but hands on like some sensitive file like .ssh
You can just leave .ssh out of the git repo
Dotfiles in 100 seconds. Hmm. More like dotfiles in 524 git commits and 3 years. I wish I could create my dotfiles in 100 seconds. Thanks for this content. Will be super helpful to people who don't know about them. See you soon!
Indeed. The course is already 4+ hours and I have a ways to go.
With RCM, you can create them in a minute
Symlinks are hard to mantain, making a Git bare repository It's a better approach!!
You can use GNU stow with a wildcard. You can check out how I do that in my install.sh for my dotfiles gitlab.com/TheOPtimal/dotfiles
@@TheOPtmal It looks pretty good, but still, making a git bare repository is way more simple and clean, check it out!
Environment variables next please
Patricks voice though 🤤
Loved the first part, but TBH am not a big fan of the OS-specific part
Awesome video as always sir! Would love to see more of these 💖💖💖
Lots of love
For managing dotfiles, I use yadm package on Linux, which is way easier
I tried yadm, but I like GNU stow better for the way I manage my repo and the minimalist approach
@@leonamer4054 I will have a look at it
