ExcaliDraw

However, Notion and Obsidian can only help you write documentation. Well, how about some visuals? Let's talk about Excalidraw.

Fun fact: I used GA in Excalidraw, and it's still powering some of the interactions! https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/package...

I was happy to find out recently that there is a way to make Mermaid diagrams WYSIWYG / drag and drop editable that the open source https://excalidraw.com has and did I mention it's open source!? With a LLM, you can go full loop back to Mermaid again after a few rounds of manual editing. "What a time to be alive!"

I'm working on a personal project and found myself looking for an alternative to Postman/Insomnia this morning. This made me realize i've been using the same tools for so long for work (mobile development, finance) that this project may be a good time to try out some new things.

Here are a few tools that i've been using lately that I really enjoy:

https://pocketbase.io/ - A dead-simple self-hosted firebase/supabase-like "backend in a box" using golang and sqlite. So far i've been really impressed. I've gone the route of extending the base offering with more go code and am really enjoying the experience.

https://excalidraw.com/ - An open source whiteboarding tool. Slick to use and after learning some keybinds I've gotten pretty fast at throwing together diagrams to explain things to people on my team. The killer piece though is that the filetype is just json, so I can source control my diagrams. Even better, their "export to png" function has a box to embed the json data _into_ the png, allowing me to slap the diagram in places that only accept images (think confluence) and still be able to change the diagram later if needed. 10/10.

https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/ - Gitlab's CI/CD toolset is really impressive, and I've gotten really intimate with it's deeper features over the past year. I'd be curious though to hear from someone who's familiar with it vs it's competitors.

Well, you could try using the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine:

Link to website or name of cookbook (note: export a PDF or MP4 to save the original website or video tutorial in case it disappears, also use archive.is & archive.org/web for older recipes that aren't available anymore, like this one)

If you put the link I put above in the following page you can get to a saved version of it https://archive.org/web/

Not sure if it’ll help with this, but https://archive.org/web/ aka the Wayback Machine is good for looking up old versions of websites.

Yeah, the internet already allows you to view any website on any day in history so I still don’t know why that book exists.

yeah you can, https://archive.org/web > scroll down to 'save page now'

Not really, sorry. The best you could do is pop the URL to your bookmarks into the Wayback Machine and see if your bookmarks page was ever captured. Then you could compare your existing page to anything the Wayback has. However, it’s unlikely they would have captured all your bookmarks, or captured them recently, if they ever did.

Accounts you delete/make private may still be viewable via the Wayback Machine. Search it for any URLs related to your accounts, and if they come up, you can follow the steps here or send a GDPR notice similar to how this person did to have them removed from the archive.

Maybe try the Wayback Machine at Archive.org if you have the playlist URL? https://archive.org/web/ I'm not sure it archives that type of thing but worth a shot. Otherwise I'd say start a new playlist asap while your memory is fresh and try to back up the list in a 2nd location somehow (even if it takes a lot of effort, like typing it all out).
