Victory! I have done git push via ssh from StaSh.

  • Used pdb to sort out where Paramiko was snagging keys from: ~/{.ssh,ssh}
  • Found a random keypair in the dot directory that something must have generated
  • Copied the keypair I generated to ssh (no dot) from site-packages/stash/.ssh
  • It worked!

I never got into Debian. Ubuntu got big after I moved to macOS. macOS stole a lot of its user land from FreeBSD, so that means the BSD utilities tend to work more to my expectations.

It's funny how macOS managed to switch to launchd with so little trouble, while systemd is this ongoing, slow-motion trainwreck.

@kdfrawg iPhoto always seemed to work fine. Then they killed it in order to roll out buggy crap to replace it.

@skematica I'm updating to Sierra now. Then going to bump phone to 10.3. Then at least if stuff doesn't work, it won't be because I'm using an unsupported/under-tested combination. :\

Pythonista StaSh:

  • Can generate an SSH key
  • Can SSH into stuff (!)
  • SCP works too

The bad: git push to ssh remote seems to always gripe I need a password for the private key, though. Without any way to provide one.

I went to the trouble of removing the password, but it still gripes. :(

So I can SCP my whole git repo over, but I can't git push. Yuck.

Not sure how exactly they manage to screw up the "sync all photos" option, AND YET. Folders don't match between Photos app on desktop and phone. I give up.

Photos sync is totally screwed. Betting it's because I'm still on El Cap. Just going to suck it up and upgrade all the things today. #JustFuckIt #DammitApple

I mostly ran Mandrake way back when. Didn't have a Mac and was bored with Windows. If I didn't use macOS now, I'd probably be running a BSD instead. But I went with the (now unsupported by Digital Ocean) Arch-Linux option for my VPS, back when they had far fewer options at all. (Now they offer at least FreeBSD as a supported choice.)

Still less time and trouble to keep going than rebuild. For now.

Emmet [emmet.io] is pretty sweet for speeding up the boring bits of sketching out some HTML. Unfortunately only helps when writing, not so much when editing after.
