[13:36] And then you can try to write about the dgplug session or the topic we learned the day before. [13:36] or anything else? [13:36] For example, who all wrote blog posts about either RST or Markdown? Say RST or Markdown if you wrote any [13:36] yes [13:36] RST [13:37] Markdown [13:37] Will write one by tonight [13:37] Rst [13:39] See, most of you already have two topics, rst and markdown. [13:40] kushal: What about punctuation typos? [13:40] nightwarriorxxx[, you will slowly become better. [13:41] Markdown [13:41] <__rex__> kushal, alright, will write one by tonight and maintain consistency. [13:41] kushal, Will write one today [13:43] kushal,will write one today [13:43] Okay. [13:43] Questions related to markdown? [13:43] Anyone? [13:43] next [13:43] ! [13:44] next [13:44] are footnotes part of standard markdown? I sometimes can't get it to work in blogs whereas it does work when I tried during class [13:45] j605, I don't know the answer, but, I don't think so. [13:46] one more reason to use RST [13:46] ! [13:46] next [13:47] where to write blogs any specific website? [13:47] shaikh_farhan, wordpress.com [13:47] next [13:47] No other question on markdown? [13:47] ! [13:48] did anyone from dgplug check /give feed back? [13:48] shaikh_farhan, means? [13:49] means what i have wrote / studied ? because i wrote a blog but no feed back came on it [13:51] shaikh_farhan, is your blog on the planet? [13:51] no issue [13:51] sorry mistype [13:51] shaikh_farhan, the easiest way to get feedback is to stay on the channel and ask for feedback (after sharing the post link), [13:51] next [13:51] kushal,yesterday __rex__ asked you that html is the implementation of markup language?what about that i am also confused [13:51] ! [13:52] ok kushal thanks. [13:52] ! [13:52] poojaencoded, markup and markdown are two different things. [13:53] poojaencoded, Do you know HTML? [13:53] yes [13:53] Okay [13:54] poojaencoded, search about markup. [13:54] next [13:55] poojaencoded, ask me after class. we’ll do a dummies version [13:55] kushal, I have a question about DNS [13:56] Can I ask ? [13:56] jasonbraganza:okay [13:56] ananyo, ask [13:57] The IP addresses given in the /etc/resolv.conf file, are they the addresses of the resolver server provided by the ISPs ? [13:58] ananyo, depends on the settings, most of the time that IP comes from your DHCP server. [13:58] ananyo, you can added them manually too. [13:59] next [13:59] Hi kushal , How do I remember the tags and formats for markdown? There are so many. I usually take reference from some online documentations/editors while writing MarkDown files. What's the method? [13:59] jeet__, tags == ? [13:59] I don't remember any tags [14:00] The formats I mean. Suppose the headings with # are easy to remember but adding images and hyperlinks quotes etc [14:00] ! [14:01] jeet__, that you will be able to remember if you write markdown files regularly [14:01] jeet__, it will take less than a week, trust me on that :) [14:02] Is it improper to take help of online editors initially? [14:02] jeet__, nope, not improper. [14:02] next [14:02] Okay :) Shall practise [14:03] kushal, So how does the OS know the IP address of the resolver servers? Is it through the /etc/resolv.conf file or there are other files as well ? [14:03] ananyo, through /etc/resolv.conf file. [14:04] Ok [14:04] ! [14:04] ! [14:05] next [14:05] ! [14:06] Suppose i write my blog or article using markdown or rst. Is there a way i can dirctly use the terminal to upload it to by blog? [14:06] *my [14:06] without having to open the browser [14:07] kps_, depends on the application/software you are using for you blog. [14:07] kps_, If you are using something like Nikola/Hugo/Shonku, then you can do everything in the command line itself, no need to touch a browser. [14:08] next [14:08] markdown in written in perl, can it be done in python also? [14:09] ok kushal [14:09] just asking. [14:10] if you have a wordpress.com blog, you can enable markdown support to compose your posts in markdown [14:10] https://en.support.wordpress.com/markdown/ [14:10] prokbird: there are dozens of implementations. We even talked about using `discount` which is written in C [14:10] prokbird, the tool which converted from markdown format text to HTML was first created in Perl. Now we have libraries for almost every language. [14:11] ! [14:12] j605,i didn't get that part yesterday. Now i got. Thanks. [14:12] kushal, Thanks :) [14:12] next [14:12] kushal, I completed reading the LYM book yesterday. Is there any resources I can read after that for learning bash scripting? Any book you suggest ? [14:13] ananyo, Yes, I will get back to that. [14:13] next [14:13] kushal, ok [14:13] I was using Gatsby for my blog.In the already present markdown files, the date was mentioned as: date: "2015-05-01T22:12:03.284Z" . What do T and Z represent here? [14:14] sidntrivedi012[m, Have you searched? [14:14] kushal, no.was just implementing it and got the error. [14:15] sidntrivedi012, I think https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601 [14:15] next [14:15] kushal, thanks. [14:16] Quick question once again: who all are not using Tor Browser regularly? [14:16] Me [14:16] kushal, me [14:16] me [14:16] Me [14:16] kushal, me [14:16] I said, not. [14:16] me [14:16] If you are not using Tor browser regularly, may we know why? [14:16] me [14:17] me [14:17] speed issues [14:17] kps_, means? [14:17] I am not using it regularly due to the slow speed. [14:18] kps_, Do you find it too slow? [14:18] I'm using it but there are some sites which don't open in tor , Like Netflix for example [14:18] kushal, tor isnt exactly the thing to stream videos! It lags a lot! [14:18] me, Google is more better in showing results and there are at times problem in connecting to some pages(security issues). [14:18] I gues kps_ meant that! [14:18] vshuklajr, yup, Tor browser is not for everything. [14:18] *guess [14:18] me [14:18] my hostel doesnt have a very good network so creating a tor circuit makes it a lot slower [14:18] Okay. [14:19] kushal, speed issues. [14:19] But, keep in mind, you are missing a lot when it comes to browser security. [14:19] There are so many good add-ons that chrome and firefox provide [14:19] I usually find searching in google more better in other browsers [14:20] ananyo, I think you are mixing between search engine and browser. [14:20] Google mostly gets blocked in Tor [14:20] theparadoxer02, Yes, but, none is capable enough like the Tor Browser. [14:20] can anyone give me the log of Tor session.I was absent that day [14:20] and tor uses Duck Duck go as default search engine.^ [14:21] poojaencoded, there were no logs on that day also. [14:21] cypher01, Yes, we also suggest to use DuckDuckGo as it keeps your privacy. [14:21] Later when you have time, visit https://panopticlick.eff.org/ [14:21] kushal: so you are saying that tor also has good no of add-ons ? [14:21] theparadoxer02, Tor Browser has selected add-ons already installed. [14:22] kushal, Using google with Tor is also ok right ? It doesn't affect our privacy. [14:23] ananyo, if you are using services where you will be anyway authenticated, you can use different browsers for the same. [14:23] Say, you keep chrome running for all things related to Google provided services. [14:23] No just for searching I mean [14:24] ananyo, Yup, that will be better. Google will log, but without your details. [14:24] Here are two home taks: [14:24] * tasks [14:24] cypher01: [14:24] yes man-jain? [14:25] 1. Write a blog post about whatever you understood by watching the keynote by JPB in PyCon US 2014 [14:25] 2. Start reading the other writings from JPB at https://www.eff.org/john-perry-barlow [14:26] kushal it's really exhausting - this paranoia of being constantly under watch. I respect liberty but at a point the future we picture seems a myth [14:26] kps_, means? [14:26] kushal, ok. [14:26] no just saying [14:26] kps_, we all know that we are constantly under watch, by government and also by the many private companies. [14:27] kps_, How do you think you get personal ads on different sites? [14:28] kushal, i know and i fully understand that but there's only this much a man can do [14:28] kps_, A person can do so much, correct, but as a group we can always make it difficult to track us. [14:29] That is why we say: learn yourself and teach others. [14:29] From next week we will start programming. ----END CLASS----
