The Spring took a leap last week only be caught by a cold spell this week. And now it is snowing again, and the forecast says that it will snow for the whole day tomorrow. Luckily I don’t have any urgent businesses to take care of during the weekend. I got the winter tires changed to ”regular” tires last Tuesday…

@matigo I have not done any analysis. But I can guess what it would reveal: I post really seldom and the most common topic in my blog posts is that I promise to write more often. Which I obviously did not do as life threw a few curveballs at my direction every single time I had made that promise…
@matigo You mean visitor analytics or analysis on the Blip content/frequency/whatever? The short answer to both: no.
My site has no analytics trackers. Why? First of all, I don’t give a 💩 about visitor analytics because my site is a dumping site for all my weird ideas as well as a playground for me to learn web development. Secondly, I would probably need to write the analytics component myself so that it would be as lightweight and non-intrusive as possible.
For the latter, I post a Blip whenever I feel like (rather seldom, to be fair) and their content vary so much that there is no sense to run any analysis on the topics etc.
Now it is done. As I have been using tagging in my Blips [pekonen.cc], they have looked a bit out of place as they have not been highlighted in any way nor there has been an aggregate site that would display all Blips that have that tag. Now both of these issues have been resolved.
Now all those plans are almost done. There is only one more thing to do before I will make it public, and I can then finetune a couple of related things later as they are not blocking the thing I have done.
The project I work on has been going on for almost 7 years now. In the early years the app was developed from scratch for 1.0 release, and when I joined the project we started continuous development for the new features. To differentiate these 2 eras, I coined the terms BCE (Before Continuous d'Evelopment) and CE (Continuous d'Evelopment). I found them funny. Luckily the team loved them as well.
Managed to work a bit on new features for my website. I have been planning to do these things since forever, I just did not have time to work on those until now. It needs some additional working though to make it work like a charm, but the building blocks are done. I just wish I had more time to work on these personal projects…
@matigo The latter. 😊 Even when it is marked as code, &+amp+; still gets converted to &…
@matigo Yup. Now it is fixed, took me a minute to open the feed file and encode the character manually to & ;. I guess I should really do some input sanitation before I generate the RSS feed so that these issue can be avoided.
