Fine tuning Stable Diffusion prompts can be art in itself. Here are some tips on how to do just that:

A good prompt should be detailed and specific, and keywords can be used from various categories such as subject, medium, style, artist, website, resolution, additional details, color, and lighting
Adding specific details to the subject, such as appearance, clothing, and background, helps generate more accurate images
Prompt building is an iterative process where keywords are added gradually to assess their effect on the generated images
The style category allows for specifying the artistic style of the image, such as hyperrealistic, surrealist, or fantasy
Negative prompts can be used to specify what should be avoided in the image

This is an excellent guide to learn more about fine tuning Stable Diffusion prompts:

I was exploring my IRC chatlogs and wanted a way to get all urls mentioned in all channels.

So, I created a small command line utility to extract urls from standard input: Check it out here

Usage:

command | python3 urls.py

The unix philosophy is powerful and leads to modular, reusable, and easy to understand systems.

From Doug McIlroy in Bell System Technical Journal from 1978:

Make each program do one thing well. To do a new job, build afresh rather than complicate old programs by adding new “features”.
Expect the output of every program to become the input to another, as yet unknown, program. Don’t clutter output with extraneous information. Avoid stringently columnar or binary input formats. Don’t insist on interactive input.
Design and build software, even operating systems, to be tried early, ideally within weeks. Don’t hesitate to throw away the clumsy parts and rebuild them.
Use tools in preference to unskilled help to lighten a programming task, even if you have to detour to build the tools and expect to throw some of them out after you’ve finished using them.
