jtbl: simple JSON tables in the terminal
`jtbl` just does the right thing. You pipe in JSON or JSON Lines and a beautiful table is printed. No configuring of headers. It will auto-wrap if your terminal is too narrow for the data. You can truncate vs. wrap, if you'd like, but other than that it's pretty simple and elegant.

Example:
```
$ cat cities.json | jtbl

Seeking advice on capturing Notifications
Hello. I'm trying to capture notifications that appear in the top section of Gnome (Ubuntu 19.10), such as email or discord. The end objective is to parse the notifications, and write out some data to a text file. I can't seem to find any programs that do this outright, or a file location where Ubuntu stores it's notifications. So if any of you know of either please share.
\*\*Edit\*\* I may have found something that works: [https://launchpad.net/\~jconti/+archive/ubuntu/recent-notifications](https://launchpad.net/~jconti/+archive/ubuntu/recent-notifications)
​
In the meantime, I'm going to try assembling my own program. In case anyone lands here trying to do the same thing, here's a list of resources that currently seem helpful.

Async shell
I have a very poor connection and I am using mosh for the time being, which is a life-saver, but I was wondering if I could use something asynchronous, possibly web based.
Basically I would write a command and the reply would be a future, in a web interface it could be a div or anything holding the future answer when available and I would be able to type new commands asynchronously and queue them for execution, with their future replies becoming visible when available. I know it is far from ideal and arguably uncomfortable, but with my current connection, this is the lesser evil.
Currently, I am using mosh and a Jupyter notebook running by a user with very limited privileges, and thinking that there has to be a better way.
Do you know of any?
Thank you

Hey guys, I'm planning to create a variant of the Solus OS for professional pentester.
Hey guys, I'm Gabriel, and I'm a web developer, trained in analysis and systems development and I'm planning to create a variant of Solus OS for pentester, as well as black arch or kali, because I believe that this system will grow a lot if become an option with more performance. As this would be a fork of the solus I think I can be redundant, I don't know, what is your opinion about it?

What are the benefits of a rolling release with a delay? (i.e. Manjaro, Solus)
I've been thinking of switching to a rolling release distro from Pop!OS because I want updates quicker in particular Gnome 3.36.
​
What I don't understand, is if there's any point to this for a rolling release distro that delays packages by 2 weeks anyways. I already have a slight delay for updates (Firefox usually takes a few days), my kernel I update just fine with the UKUU fork "Mainline", and my Mesa drivers I use a PPA for. Is there anything I'm missing?? How would a delayed rolling release distro be an advantage?

Command to list sourced functions?
Is there a command that can list all commands and functions that are "sourced" to the current shell and display the original noscript they come from?
I have many functions in the shell of one of my system but I can difficultly find where the noscript they originated from without greping the whole system.
Is there a builtin command to get this information?

Is it possible to create Wine but for MacOS?
I'm a Linux noob, so it might be a stupid question but, wouldn't it be easier to run macOS apps on Linux than running MS Windows softwares? After all both Linux and macOS have more in common than what they have with MS Windows. I think it would be a great advantage for Linux to be able to run macOS apps, specially that now even Microsoft Office supports macOS, plus obviously the whole Adobe ecosystem.

Combo Apt/Dnf
You know what would rock? A combination of Apt and Dnf.
So I started my Linux journey like most on Ubuntu. Dabbled a bit in Solus but landed on Fedora. I think what got me was just how dang clean dnf looks. It's what got me more comfortable in the terminal. I mean when I run sudo dnf update the format of the output is so clean with lines and column headers. I'm able to actually understand the information I see. Apt always seemed messy looking.
But I'm on a system76 machine and needed to do a firmware update and when I popped in my live boot of Pop! OS I fell in love with it's beauty. It is themed so we'll. So I installed to my hard drive and am just impressed at it's speed, so much faster than Fedora. But apt. Sure it's easy, just as easy as dnf but man I'd love it if it looked as clean as dnf during updates.
That is all
