Introduction

If you are sharing passwords or other sensitive data over IM, email etc. you should take a look at this free web application. The application is called cryptgeon and is developed by a guy called Nicco. The application will only keep the shared secrets/files in memory and not write the data to disk. You can have a look at his GitHub repo here or see the screenshot below for the UI.

Docker Compose

If you are using docker engine and docker-compose here’s the compose file I’m using to run the application.

version: '3.7'

services:
  memcached:
    image: memcached:1-alpine
    entrypoint: memcached -m 128M -I 4M # Limit to 128 MB Ram, 4M per entry, customize at free will.

  app:
    image: cupcakearmy/cryptgeon:latest
    depends_on:
      - memcached
    environment:
      SIZE_LIMIT: 4M
    ports:
      - 82:5000
    restart: unless-stopped

Predictive Intellisense in PowerShell

Thu, 09 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Introduction

If you are using PowerShell (pwsh) on a daily basis like me, you should take a look at enabling Predictive IntelliSense in your pwsh prompt. It was announced in late 2020 but I dont think that many people are aware and have it enabled in their pwsh profile. You can think of Predictive IntelliSense like taking tab completion to the next level.

How to

Check that you have (PSReadLine) minimum version 2.1.0 installed.
```
Get-Module -ListAvailable -Name PSReadLine
```
If not install/update it from PowerShell Gallery.
```
Find-Module PSReadLine -Repository PSGallery
```
Import the module to your pwsh session.
```
Import-Module PSReadLine
```
Set PSReadLine option (add it to your $profile so it will load on each new session).
```
Set-PSReadLineOption -PredictionSource History -PredictionViewStyle ListView
```

Screenshots

Find the module on PoserShell Gallery.
