Other articles such as https://optimizedbyotto.com/post/writing-tips-for-software-professionals/, https://optimizedbyotto.com/post/linux-containers-docker/, https://optimizedbyotto.com/post/restist-the-urge-of-quick-solutions/ sound interesting.
The article https://optimizedbyotto.com/post/pulsar-best-text-file-and-code-editor/ has some errors: " neither of them [vim, Emacs] has a graphical user interface, and they are completely incapable of doing things like showing images or, for example, a Markdown preview". Emacs can show images and probably can be taught to show a Markdown preview. The statement about modes (for Emacs) is misleading as well, Larry Tesler's statement 'Tesler was very keen on "modeless" software, where a user would not have to, for example, use a keyboard to switch to a command mode before switching back to edit text.' on https://www.theregister.com/2020/02/19/larry_tesler/ describes vi[m]'s modes, but Emacs modes are different, since you do not switch between command and text entry modes.

This script intends to sync near-automatically via git in "tracking" repositories where a nice history is not as crucial as having one.

Document explaining the development of a bc/dc clone. Might be a good example to follow, if I ever make a public project.

difftastic is a structural diff tool that compares files based on their syntax. So for example, if you conditionalize some statement, the diff would only show the addition of one if with its condition instead of showing one line added (the if (condition)) and the line with the statement being removed and re-added (because of indentation changes). In many cases, such structural diffs transport the meaning of a change much better than the typical line-based diffs.

Magit is the Emacs package for managing git repositories.
Forges is a Magit extention for extended features for topics management (issues, pull requests, merge requests, notifications)
This article describes how Magit/Forges can be set up to work with GitLab.

Adding

pager = false
ui = false
advice = false
push = false
