    Happy Good Friday! The NodeBB offices are closed today, but I thought it'd be nice to show us that we all have lives outside of our work, even though we can't really go out and do anything right now. Shall we make this a regular thing? We'll see. Stay safe, everybody, and keep practicing social distancing! As of this blog post's writing (10th April 2020), many municipalities and regions in Ontario (and Ontario itself) have declared a state of emergency. While the country itself has not taken that final step towards declaring a national emergency, there are many recommendations to stay home, to only head out for essential trips such as grocery shopping (and even then, only once a week), and to practice appropriate social distancing, by remaining 2 meters (or 6 feet) away from others at all times. While we normally all go into the office a couple times a week, and have one weekly in-office day for all employees, this has been suspended for the time being, in order to keep our staff healthy and to minimize exposure through use of public transit, etc. So what are we up to while we're essentially isolating ourselves from the public?

    Alright. Okay. I know what I said before. But there is one other thing. Drum roll, please.... The visitor and use graph on the Admin landing page is useful to me. Some nice presets that cover most everything I'd be interested in. But I do find myself oft times pining for an hourly X-Axis spanning more days, e.g. 72 hour axis scaled in one hour increments. Damn. This is a slimline the cruft and tech debt announcement and I've now added two feature requests. Mea culpa! Thanks and keep up the great work!

    @julian said in Reflections on the Digital Sabbath: Thanks @gotwf, nice to hear my thoughts echoed back. I've been chasing this for some time now, with limited success. It all started when I went camping a couple hours north of Toronto, and didn't have any cell signal. Interesting you should mention camping. One of the best ways to get started/test drive this, as it boosts self discipline. Be prepared for some dopamine withdrawal though. A few years back we hosted an exchange student from Italy who was accustomed to having high speed wi-fi available everywhere. Took him on a few camping trips. You could visibly see the tension and anxiety build hour by hour away from wifi to the point of him becoming physically ill. Had to shorten a three day backpacking trip to two days. Ten miles in, ten miles out, and no time to just enjoy the spectacular views.

    I just renewed one of my wildcards. You indeed need to use DNS and the TXT records need to change every time. You would need to use a script to set the TXT records for auto-renew.

    @vstoykov Actually, now that you mention it, we do already do some degree of caching for API returns such as topic and user data retrievals

    Actually, you can add NodeBB to your home screen already... should work on both Android and iOS. However we don't show an alert for it because we find it obtrusive... I personally can't stand sites where I have to spend a couple seconds closing the two or three modals or overlays it shoves in my face when I want to read something, and that is reflected in how we don't do any of that in NodeBB.

    Ahah, busted I still use Linux day-to-day, although I picked up a 2015 model MBP so we could test NodeBB on safari (when the need arises)... it's... an okay laptop Perhaps someday I'll format it and load Xubuntu...

    I was on my way into the office one morning when I saw a link to the results of the 2017 Open Source Survey, released by GitHub. I'm almost certain I filled it out myself at some point, but seeing the summarized results was just as important for me, as our project is completely open-source and as such, any recommendations would be highly relevant to us. ... [the survey results] highlight some of the most actionable and important insights about the community. Click here to see the full blog post
