TL;DR: You'll now get an email notification shortly after I've moderated your comment to let you know whether it was approved or rejected.
Again, it was a fun feature to build! You can check the source code on sourcehut.
I created a custom Django management command that can be run from the command line that fetches moderated comments from the DB and sends a summary by mail to the people who entered their email address. This command is run every 10 minutes by the cron program.
That way, even if I don't moderate all comments at once, you should only get one summary email for your comments. Not one email per comment.
I just added comments to the blog! I'm keeping for myself the right to remove any offending, off-topic or spammy comment.
There's a moderation step, but your feedback is more than welcome ! 😊 I'm just doing this to protect myself against spam, off-topic or offensive content.
I set up some notifications when there are comments pending review so it shouldn't take too long for your reaction to appear here!
I recently moved to a new apartment and now I have a little closet which contains the electrical board. It's also where the optical fiber comes in and so it's where I put my ISP-provided modem.
For a few weeks, it sat on the floor in this closet since I didn't have any room for it anywhere else. I wasn't satisfied, so I decided to design some small pieces to create a wall mount for the beast.
For a few weeks now I've been hosting my new projects at sourcehut instead of my usual GitHub account. So far, the experience has been very pleasant but it also has some drawbacks. Let's talk about it!
Today's very quick post is a recommendation to a french YouTube channel. It's called Chat Sceptique and features a statistician popularizing many different topics related to statistics.
The same person was behind another channel which is not active anymore due to conflicts between the team members: La statistique expliquée à mon chat.
If you understand french, I highly recommend taking a look at both channels and subscribing if you like it!
Recently I added some statistics to my blog. I wanted to do that with minimum effort and without serving any crappy proprietary JavaScript to my users.
Since I consider my messages on social media to be valid at the moment they're posted, I like to have them deleted after some time. When I still used Twitter, I also used a CLI tool called cleantweets that helped with this.
A few months ago, after having created an account on Fosstodon, I wrote a simple command line utility to help you achieve the same thing but with toots: cleantoots (notice how much effort I put into naming it).
I bought a Raspberry Pi 3 model B+ about a year ago. I had to check the order date because I was pretty sure I had it for longer but I only got it at the end of March 2019.
Now feels a good time to talk about my experience with the little guy. This will be my #100DaysToOffload fifth post.
As you can see, I like YubiKeys.
