Parallels Resize Issue

Refer: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1073568/preventing-window-resizing-after-resume

There's an issue when resuming from suspend, the screen warps and it needs resized.  This fix does not work completely but it downsizes the window, so you just need to double-click to get it working again.  This is NOT a perfect solution for Parallels and it is wonky when suspending in full screen too.

If this returns a value of uint32 0, then it means you have automatic scaling turned on. I found that setting this to a specific value (in my case 1) fixed the issue, which you can do using the following:

gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor 1

Announcing Httpbin.org

June 12, 2011
The development of Requests, the Python HTTP Module for Humans, led to some annoying testing practices. Relying on random websites and services in order to test different capabilities of the HTTP client became annoying quickly. PostBin.org was perfect for testing POST request behavior, but is usless for other situations. I was hoping to extend its functionality to other request types, but it turns out that PostBin runs on the Google App Engine platform. No.

Thus, httpbin.org was born.

Example Endpoints

To get a feel for what HttpBin does, here are a few endpoint examples:

$ curl http://httpbin.org/ip :

{"origin": "::ffff:24.127.96.129"}
$ curl http://httpbin.org/user-agent :

{"user-agent": "curl/7.19.7 (universal-apple-darwin10.0) libcurl/7.19.7 OpenSSL/0.9.8l zlib/1.2.3"}

Debug NodeJS Application

Refer: https://dev.to/john_papa/debug-your-nodejs-app-in-60-seconds-5cni

Visual Studio Code (aka VS Code) has changed the game on Node.js debugging. There is a feature called Node: Auto Attach (you can learn more about it here in the docs). Or keep reading — this will only take a minute.

When you enable this feature, you can run your node app from a command line, from an npm script, or from a tool that runs one of those. Just make sure you add the Node Inspector flag to let Node know you are planning on debugging. Once you do this, the debugger lights up in VS Code!

Auto-Attach the Debugger to Node.js Apps with VS Code

Step by Step

Open the settings in VS Code (CMD + , on Mac or CTRL + , on Windows). You can also go to the Command Palette (CMD + SHIFT + P on Mac or CTRL + SHIFT + P on Windows) and search for settings.

Search for “auto attach” and you’ll see a setting for Node: Auto Attach. Go ahead and turn that on.

Now run your Node.js app from your favorite command line whether that be integrated terminal, external terminal.

node --inspect=0.0.0.0:9229 server.js

Now when you launch your app with the --inspect flag the debugger attaches to your app in VS Code! From here you can set breakpoints, step through your code, and have all the great debugging goodness!
