For my link archive: responses to Iris Classon asking for “least privacy invading way to track some metrics regarding traffic to my website?”

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/03/12

This sparked some great responses [Wayback/Archive] Iris Classon on Twitter: “What’s the least privacy invading way to track some metrics regarding traffic to my website? Basic stuff, not length of stay, color of underwear or body count.”, for instance:

Hugo, a static website engine written in Go: I might eventually switch WordPress to it

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/11/23

A long time ago, when just recovering from my december 2019 rectum cancer radiation treatments, I asked what Hugo was, to which tiara fan Jenn happily replied “[Archive] Jenn on Twitter: “It is a static website engine written in Go, … ““.

Like me, writing down or trying stuff is her way to remember things: [Archive] Jenn on Twitter: “For some reason, handwriting terminal commands helps to cement them in my head.… “

In 2021, Isotopp moved over to Hugo and I kindly asked if in the future he would help me out if I wanted to move from WordPress to Hugo.

The thread:

I will need to find a way to schedule posts though.

Note I archived Isotopp’s full thread at [Wayback/Archive] Thread by @isotopp on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App.

Wo ich arbeite scheint alles auf ein Markdown im Git und eine Variante von Hugo, Jekyll oder ähnlich zu konvergieren.

Herhaald appel aan #MeerOverMedisch (hallo @ReneSteenhorst): zorg dat je behalve per columnist de columns van individuele columnisten makkelijk terug kunt vinden. Bijvoorbeeld de geweldige columns van @IvanWolffers.

Ik herhaal mijn appel van een paar weken terug:

[Wayback/Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers on Twitter: “Tip voor #MeerOverMedisch (ik hoop dat @ReneSteenhorst dit kan laten fiksen): zorg dat je behalve meerovermedisch.nl/columntypes/gastcolumn/ ook per columnist de columns van individuele columnisten makkelijk terug kunt vinden. Bijvoorbeeld de geweldige columns van @IvanWolffers.”

De volledige draad vind je op [Wayback/Archive] Thread by @jpluimers on Thread Reader App, waarover hieronder meer.

Unwanted non-breaking spaces (&nbsp) | WordPress.org

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/10/01

Having spurious non-breaking spaces seems to be unavoidable: [WayBack] Unwanted non-breaking spaces (&nbsp) | WordPress.org.

Deleting them is tough:

  • in the visual editor, deleting a non-breaking spaces will mess up at least lists, pre and code blocks.
  • the text editor is the only reliable place to remove them. Search for  .

#Tech45 – Nederlandstalige tech-podcast

Posted by jpluimers on 2018/03/05

Al een jaar of wat volg ik de Nederlandstalige #Tech45 podcast van tech45.eu:

Tech45 is een wekelijkse technologiepodcast. In minstens 45 minuten loodst een panel je door het interessantste technieuws van de voorbije week.

Ze hebben altijd een leuke titel zoals bijvoorbeeld de eerste van 2016: [WayBack] Tech45 #322: Ik heb eigenlijk alleen maar slechte voornemens

Wees niet verbaast als het ineens 60 of 80 minuten duurt en vol humor zit. Meestal luister ik ook na afloop en soms meerdere episodes achter elkaar.

Misschien is de nieuwe layout al af, zo niet dan staat het experiment op [WayBack] http://43.tech45.eu/

New feeds for Dilbert, Penny Arcade, W.T. Duck

Posted by jpluimers on 2015/08/09

Now that Yahoo Pipes is stopping, Chris Bernard rewrote his Dilbert/Penny Arcade/W.T.Duck feeds and published source on GitHub: https://github.com/cbenard/comicfeeds/

Feeds

If you use Feedly, and some (or all) pictures don’t show up for the Dilbert feed, then that is because of Feedly caching content. Use a parameterised URL fixes this: http://comicfeeds.chrisbenard.net/view/dilbert/default?something=something

How to Prevent a specific Blogger Blog from Redirecting to Country Domains

Posted by jpluimers on 2015/02/09

The article How to Prevent your Blogger Blog from Redirecting to Country Domains describes to prevent the country redirect from within a blog itself.

But what about outside readers that want to see a specific blog on the .com link?

One of the reasons they want to do this is that Google does not index the country redirected sites, they only index the com site.

I had this while reading http://delphisorcery.blogspot.com/. It kept redirecting to http://delphisorcery.blogspot.nl/ (as I’m based in Amsterdam; in Germany for instance it would redirect to http://delphisorcery.blogspot.de/).

But a site:delphisorcery.blogspot.nl search would return nothing whereas site:delphisorcery.blogspot.com would return the full index for the blog.

The trick is to browse the .com version of the blog with NCR once: http://delphisorcery.blogspot.com/ncr

If you do that, Google forces a no-country redirect (just like you can do with Google.com: browse to http://www.google.com/ncr), and it remembers that choice too.

Note that BlogSpot has not done this country redirect for ever.
