Looking at my blog today, I noticed that Netlify now warns you if you link to non-HTTPS URLs in your site:
2:37:56 PM: Starting post processing 2:37:56 PM: Mixed content detected in: /blog/index.html 2:37:56 PM: --> insecure link urls: 2:37:56 PM: - http://w6d6vblb6vhuqxt6.onion/blog/ 2:37:56 PM: - http://tvin5bvfwew3ldttg5t6ynlif4t53y3mbmb7sgbyud7h5q6gblrpsnyd.onion/blog/ 2:37:56 PM: - http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/ This is really handy in catching those URLs you’ve forgotten to make into HTTPS URLs, but Tor Project exempts .
I joined Mastodon today. So did metrics-bot who is now simultooting to the fediverse.
metrics-bot on Mastodon
Annoyingly, the API for Mastodon is different enough from the API for Twitter that I’ve needed to use a new library in metrics-bot. I’m using the mastodon4j library for now, but I’m really using so little of the API I do wonder if it would be easier to just reimplement the parts that are needed and drop the rest.
Reporting a bug in free software is easy. It turns out that everything I thought I knew about bug reporting was turned on its head when I tried to report a bug in the Tesco groceries website.
I was finding some sort of JavaScript problems in that my CPU was held at 100% and the page wasn’t really usable.
As with bug reports, I was expecting to at least have some technical information logged along with my email address so someone can contact me if they want me to try some things out.
