Comment Counting [en]

Finally, after days and days of sweating, I found the solution to the “comment counting” problem. Thanks a lot to all the kind people who looked into it.

Now you can all see that nobody adds any comments to my posts ; )

Sitemeter [en]

Yay! I got a great cool free site meter. Peek at the little shiny square at the bottom of each page.
And hey, that means I have graphics on my site at last!! hehee.

RIP Music Section [en]

I just realised that I forgot to mention I had killed the music section. If I want to suggest a music pick to you, I’ll do it here.

Apart from that, I’m not really happy with the look of my site. I’ve tried changing all the fonts to Verdana, but I’m not even sure it’s better. The size of my titles collides with my text.
Sure, teeny winsy fonts look much more “pro” – but I have such a hard time reading them that I can’t bring myself to put them on my site.

I know my site lacks graphics, I have been planning to put up some pictures for nearly a year and a half, now. Only before that, I need to sort my slides and scan them – as for creating graphics, forget about it: I can’t draw to save my life.

The “comments” feature is now functional (except it doesn’t show the number of comments on the link), so go ahead and use it as much as you please – I’ll be happy to read them comments, you know…

There – done with the whining. Though if you have any constructive solutions, I’d be glad to hear them!!

Comments Coming [en]

While checking out my “places” these last days I noticed a really cool “comments” feature in jo’s weblog.
I’m currently implementing it on my site, and I’m very happy it uses PHP – I love PHP! – so don’t worry if it takes a day or two to be functional…
Here is the code for these comments. More information at blogger discuss developers forum.

Please don’t make any comments about people who blog every five minutes ; ) – I’m in the blogger directory at last.
Big thanks to the webmistress for pointing out the missing link.

There. Done. Too late.
I’m becoming more and more like the common weblogger.

I’ve registered at updatefu.com and weblogs.com…

Offline [en]

I hardly go on the net these days. I’m overbooked, for one thing, and I don’t have a computer – for another.
I’m starting to miss India a little. Probably because Somak, Aleika, Akirno and Cali are coming over next week-end on their way to Birmingham.

Site

I’m seriously considering merging the music section with this main weblog. As far as I can see, it doesn’t really make any sense to keep it separate.
Maybe one of these next weeks when I find a computer and a little time…

Netscape Ph33r [en]

I have hopefully managed to fix the style sheet glitches. The other day, I had the chance to have a glimpse of my site through Netscape 4.5 on a 14-inch monitor.

Terrifying experience.

Oooops… I’ve messed up the style sheets a bit – will be OK soon though, promise!

    TL;DR: enter card details manually, not using Link, if you need to change your payment method and it’s stuck. Three days ago my Claude Pro subscription was up for renewal but I’d forgotten to top-up the prepaid credit card I use for this. It was (logically) declined and my subscription was suspended.  I was using … Continue reading "Anthropic payment woes – resolved"

    End 2024 is when I really started to get going with “AI” (or LLMs – I know saying “AI” is kinda wrong, but there seems to be no good way to escape it right now). I’d been dabbling a bit before that: as a search engine, to help me with my excel formulas at work, or … Continue reading "The Wild Magical World of AI (LLMs)"
  • Titres, écriture, initiation de tâches, et IA03.04.2026
    Devoir mettre un titre à un article, c’est clairement un frein à l’initiation de la tâche “écrire un article”. Vous avez déjà remarqué ça? De mon point de vue, c’est aussi une des raisons pour lesquelles ce qui se racontait sur les blogs à gentiment migré vers les réseaux. Sur Facebook ou LinkedIn, nul besoin … Continue reading "Titres, écriture, initiation de tâches, et IA"

    A friendly colleague I share some geeky interests with told me today I was courageous to announce my blogging intentions yesterday. I told him “not that much”, because if I didn’t stick to my declaration of intent, it’s not something I’d feel terribly bad about. Writing that quick post yesterday made me feel a bit … Continue reading "Today is Tomorrow"

    I set a timer for 30 minutes, with the intent of churning out a quick blog post. I’m all over the place, I have stuff to dump. I’m struggling, but my head is still out of the water, thankfully. Well, I figured I’d close some tabs before writing, because I have windows full of tabs … Continue reading "I’ll Write Tomorrow"
