How to extract playlists (list of file locations) from iTunes using python – Stack Overflow
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/12/18
While migrating from iTunes on one machine to Apple Music on another one, I needed to migrate part of the (disorganised) playlists.
I knew there was a binary ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library.itl file, but that is encoded or encrypted, making it hard to parse.
Luckily there is also ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music Library.xml which I found via the links below.
- [Wayback/Archive] What file holds my itunes playlists – Apple Community
- [Wayback/Archive] How to extract playlists (list of file locations) from iTunes using python – Stack Overflow
The iTunes library xml file is in the same directory as the .itl file. The file is in Apple plist format, and Python’s standard library has a good parser for it.

At the end of 2020, in the midst of the Covid-19 crisis, [Wayback/Archive] den (@DennisCode) / Twitter started [Wayback/Archive] Engineering Festivus
The only thing 2020 needed is Seinfeld making a career change and getting into tech.
It is a series of IT parodies that at the time of writing just had its’ 35th episode: [Wayback/Archive] den on Twitter: “Kubernetes.”
Kubernetes
Kramer decided to use Kubernetes for his website. Jerry tries to explain what that entails. Kramer is adamant to do it all himself.

LOL, just saw @isotopp changed his name to Köhntopp
Well done, Kris. Well done.
( the history of the iso isotopp handle is so great, that I was glad I captured it from Twitter before that content got deleted; it is now at https://wiert.me/2022/06/09/how-isotopp-became-the-online-handle-of-kristian-kohntopp/ )

Markdown has been the Internet’s lingua franca for documentation. Microsoft finally the documentation format with markitdown: Python tool for converting files and office documents to Markdown.
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/12/17
Finally an easier way to convert Office documents (and other formats) to markdown: [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – microsoft/markitdown: Python tool for converting files and office documents to Markdown. (after Google added a Markdown export feature to Google Docs about half a year ago, and basic Markdown formatting about 2 years ago – see below):
There are quite a few dependencies in [Wayback/Archive] markitdown/pyproject.toml at main · microsoft/markitdown · GitHub, so be prepared for that.
Supported formats (added links for clarity):
The MarkItDown library is a utility tool for converting various files to Markdown (e.g., for indexing, text analysis, etc.)It presently supports:
Google was first though:
- [Wayback/Archive] Google Workspace Updates: Compose with Markdown in Google Docs on web
- [Wayback/Archive] Google Workspace Updates: Import and export Markdown in Google Docs
There is speculation on why Microsoft introduced it just now ranging from “they need it for AI training” to “just late to the game”. I’m with the latter. Apple is even later, so if you want to convert Apple Notes to markdown, then you can use [Wayback/Archive] Import from Apple Notes – Obsidian Help.

Link archive: Windows PSBits/PasswordStealing/NPPSpy at master · gtworek/PSBits

Simple (but fully working) code for
NPLogonNotify(). The function obtains logon data, including cleartext password.
[Wayback/Archive] PSBits/PasswordStealing/NPPSpy at master · gtworek/PSBits has been used in the wild since about 2022 (the code is from 2020).
The code is a ~100 line C file resulting in a DLL exporting the NPGetCaps() and NPLogonNotify() functions.

Unicode: Keyboard Symbols ⌘ ↵ ⌫
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/12/11
I wish I had bumped into this page a way sooner as it contains most if not all the keyboard symbols I ever looked for: [Wayback/Archive] Unicode: Keyboard Symbols ⌘ ↵ ⌫
The page contains a lot more than just this diagram (which already is a great start):
⎋ ` 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - = ⌫ ⎀ ⤒ ⇞ ⇥ Q W E R T Y U I O P [ ] \ ⌦ ⤓ ⇟ 🄰 A S D F G H J K L ; ' ↵ ⇧ Z X C V B N M , . / ⇧ ↑ ⎈ ❖ ⎇ ␣ ⎇ ❖ ▤ ⎈ ← ↓ → 🌐 ⌃ ⌥ ⌘

Next level CAPTCHA which AI engines fail at [Wayback/Archive] Basic Apple Guy on X: “Find the Mac Pro (5th anniversary edition) 🔍 1949 cheese graters, 1 of them is a Mac Pro”
The low res versions are impossible for me, and even the high-res picture is tough.
What is the smallest size you can find the Mac Pro? Picture on the right for reference.
Twitter picture sizes (I will explain them in a future blog post) via [Wayback/Archive] Tweet JSON:

How To Scale and Crop Images with CSS object-fit | DigitalOcean
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/12/11
[Wayback/Archive] How To Scale and Crop Images with CSS object-fit | DigitalOcean helped me to crop the picture in Florian Haas on Twitter: alias kubectl=”TZ=Etc/UTC kubectl”; You’re welcome.
The picture itself is 800 * 800 pixels (width * height), but the interesting bits are 400 * 200 around the center. Also it is a lot larger than I wanted.
So I embedded it using this HTML
<img class="alignnone size-full" style="width: 200px; height: 100px; object-fit: cover; object-position: 0 50%;" src="https://archive.ph/frSNu/0f0ebeeb5a4edf048577be89adb866344b303394.jpg" alt="" />
The width made it 25% the original size (because of [Wayback/Archive] object-fit value cover), and half the height so I had to move the [Wayback/Archive]object-position up 50%.
I found this via [Wayback/Archive] image inline css to crop top and bottom – Google Search.
That also found [Wayback/Archive] html – while display image crop Top and Bottom of image using css – Stack Overflow with an example at [Wayback/Archive] Edit fiddle – JSFiddle – Code Playground which is similar to the above solution.
