Exporting your 2FA tokens from Authy to transfer them into another 2FA application

IMPORTANT - Update regarding deprecation of Authy desktop apps

Past August 2024, Authy stopped supported the desktop version of their apps:
See Authy is shutting down its desktop app | The 2FA app Authy will only be available on Android and iOS starting in August for details.

And indeed, after a while, Authy changed something in their backend which now prevents the old desktop app from logging in. If you are already logged in, then you are in luck, and you can follow the instructions below to export your tokens.

If you are not logged in anymore, but can find a backup of the necessary files, then restore those files, and re-install Authy 2.2.3 following the instructions below, and it should work as expected.

Grab a feed and make a Kindle book out of it's latest entry

This script downloads an RSS feed, assembles it's latest entry into a nice HTML file, downloads all of the assets required, generates a Kindle .mobi book with Amazon's official tool, sends me a Pushbullet notification that it worked, and uploads the .mobi book to my Dropbox.

If you wanted, you could then have a tool like this upload it to your Kindle wirelessly.

Set-up:

Copy parse.sh and dropbox_uploader.sh to your working directory that you'd like the script to live
chmod +x parsh.sh dropbox_uploader.sh

Switch To Vim For Good

NOTE: This guide has moved to https://github.com/bpierre/switch-to-vim-for-good

This guide is coming from an email I used to send to newcomers to Vim. It is not intended to be a complete guide, it is about how I switched myself.

My decision to switch to Vim has been made a long time ago. Coming from TextMate 1, I wanted to learn an editor that is Open Source (so I don’t lose my time learning a tool that can be killed), cross platform (so I can use it everywhere), and powerful enough (so I won’t regret TextMate). For these reasons, Vim has always been the editor I wanted to learn, but it took me several years before I did it in a way that works for me. I tried to switch progressively, using the Janus Vim distribution for a few months, then got back to using TextMate 2 for a time, waiting for the next attempt… here is what finally worked for me.

	/* Friendly Card Game Results:
	During this past winter, a few friends got together every Wednesday night for a friendly game of cards. On some nights they'd play two games, but never the same game twice on the same night. The usual players were Spunky Sam, Marcimus, Winston, and Hopper. Sometimes, one of the friends couldn't make it, so there were only three players. But sometimes they'd call another friend to fill-in. In every game they played, the one with the hightest score was declared the winner. These are their results:
