QUICK TIP: UPDATE AN OUTDATED FORK ON GITHUB WITH A CLICK

Developers fork repositories and forget about them. I mean until they need it
again. But git’s moved on by then — your fork is probably suffering the same
fate which is why you’re reading this. How should I update an outdated fork?
Before today you had to do the following: git remote add upstream <clone-url>
git fetch upstream [...]

MY OPEN SOURCE CODE CONTRIBUTION TO NASA’S INGENUITY HELICOPTER GOES TO MARS 🚀

When I was a kid, I wanted to be an astronaut—exploring space and whatnot. But I
was afraid of heights, told my mom I'll settle as a scientist who'd invent
things like rockets. Later I became an Electrical Engineer — switched to
Computer Science and wrote a lot of open-source code. Less did I know my code
will make it to Mars one day.

QUICKTIP: HOW TO SET PYTHON DEFAULT VERSION TO 3.X ON MACOS?

If you are a macOS user like me, you know the default version of Python that
comes by default with your mac is version 2.X. Most of the time, you’ll end up
