System Design Basics

Aswath KNM — Wed, 29 Aug 2018 16:34:27 +0000

Hey Everyone,

When I searched videos about pub/sub, I came across this video.

Turns out the guy who's making this video is a famous competitive programming person.

He made an entire playlist for Basics of system design, a must learning topic for anyone who wants a deep understanding of how the actual web works.

Why I wanted to share this with you is because, the videos are explained in with simple words and nice pronunciation, which makes easy to understand.

Hope this will be helpful!!!!

Youtube-dl-gui. A sane way to download youtube videos in bulk

How to download YouTube videos in bulk?

This is one of the most asked questions in google.

But the answers include many shortcuts and paid softwares like 4k-video-downloader

Now I am using a software which is open source and free to download without any restrictions.

Youtube-dl

History

It started as a command line tool for downloading youtube videos, now it supports many sites.

Note: A link to supported sites is here

After sometime a GUI(graphical user interface) is also made to ease of use

This blog is a simple tutorial about how to use it without doing much google search

First of all,

Configure the software for your convenience

When downloading an entire playlist its better to have auto-increment option in the software.

playlist-index will add indexes accordingly to the video


%(playlist_index)s-%(title)s.%(ext)s

Adding the right format

When downloading the video you need the right resolution type and and video type possible and can be selected from home screen like this

But there is customize this too, using the Format tab in Options

Subtitles

Subtitles are one of the important features while watching videos, so diverse group of people benefit from the content of the video, even though they don't understand content creators' language

You can download subtitle language(s) of your choice, if you need you can embed it too(only on mp4 videos) !!!

Advanced

You can add advanced features like adding authentication and proxy in the advanced tab

Miscellaneous

Sometimes internet will be down and the software don't have a resume option,

But there is something else available

When you use

-c or --continue

combining with the index of the video

---playlist-start NUMBER

to continue from where you left off

Conclusion

Youtube-dl-gui is very helpful for me. But no great beginner posts available.

Hope it helps!!!!

Explain :colon and colon: in Ruby Like I'm Five

Aswath KNM — Mon, 11 Jun 2018 14:11:18 +0000

I am learning rails, finished ruby basics. Still confused with colon before and after in ruby.

 def create
    @user = User.new(user_params)

    respond_to do |format|
      if @user.save
        format.html { redirect_to @user, notice: 'User was successfully created.' }
        format.json { render :show, status: :created, location: @user }
      else
        format.html { render :new }
        format.json { render json: @user.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }
      end
    end
  end

This is a create method automatically generated by rails scaffold command.

and please explain whats going on with the code.

Which Payment Platform is suitable for a hobby dev project ?

Aswath KNM — Sat, 07 Apr 2018 16:53:37 +0000

I am developing a project in my free time, that requires a subscription based service .

To start a production ready payment gateway interface, Companies like Stripe and Razorpay requires Business license .

The currently working thing is PayPal. I'm looking for alternatives.

My question is
Is there any payment gateway that doesn't require Business license and also supports payments for International Transactions ?
