Chapter Three: Hell is Programming a Calendar (Part 3 – Lingering Questions)

Posted on by Michael G
Last time I broke down the default Drupal date field to see what we can learn about how best to handle time. Originally that was going to be the end of the series. However, the writing process dug up even more questions, and circumstances found me putting my new knowledge to the test. So here we are, part three of my two part series on wrestling time in Drupal.

COMPARING DATES

The previous post posed the question: “What’s the best way to compare date values within this framework?” Well one of you must have made a sacrifice to the irony gods, because between the last post and now I unexpectedly had to build a day view calendar which forced me to answer this question with practice and not just theory.

The what, the why, and the how of Bloom Filters

Posted on by Michael G
Have you ever wondered how does Medium recommend blogs to read or how does a platform with millions of users tells if a username is available or taken? If yes, you have come to the right place, as we are going to look at the data structure that makes this and a lot more happen. The data structure is Bloom Filter.

Bash 09 – Functions

Posted on by Michael G
We have covered all of Bash, except for Functions. Functions can be very helpful for a script.

If you have any programming experience, then you should already have an understanding of the Function. A Function is a set of commands that you utilize multiple times. We can set the Function up one time and called as many times as we need.

Structure

Each script can have multiple Functions, but we must lay them out as one of the following:

function_name() {

GNUnet News: messenger-cli 0.1.0

Posted on by Michael G

messenger-cli 0.1.0 released

We are pleased to announce the release of the messenger-cli application.

The application is a counterpart for the terminal to the previous release of the GTK application using the GNUnet Messenger service. The goal is to provide private and secure communication between any group of devices. So server admins or users relying on a terminal focused window manager have now a proper option to utilize the service as well.

The application provides the following features:

  • Creating direct chats and group chats
  • Sending text messages
  • Sharing files privately
  • Deleting messages
  • Verifying contact identities
  • Switching between different accounts

The application utilizes the previously released library “libgnunetchat” in an user interface built with ncurses. It will adapt its different views depending on the terminal size to show most important information. The navigation is done via arrow-, ESCAPE, TAB, ENTER and DELETE keys. More information about that can be found

Note that due to mirror synchronization, not all links might be functional
early after the release. For direct access try

Noteworthy changes in 0.1.0

  • It is possible to create direct chats and group chats via lobbies, shared keys or invitations
  • Members of a chats can be observed
  • Chats allow sending text messages or files
  • Messages can be deleted in any chat locally
  • Switching between different accounts can be done during runtime

A detailed list of changes can be found in the

ChangeLog

.

Known Issues

  • It is still difficult to get reliable chats between different devices. This might change with the upcoming changes on the GNUnet transport layer though.
  • It might happen that the FS service is not connected which might stop any file upload or stall it forever.
