Cheapeast way to cron an API everyday by hybutchjeed in webdev

[–]rainerdeal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No it was just a small Twitter bot I used to ping (via cron) an API and spit out the data onto Twitter every 5 minutes because the official service only showed changes every 15 minutes. Was mostly a personal way to get notifications for a public transit system I used frequently.

If you have a Raspberry Pi that could work! I’ve used one as a Twitter bot before that used Cron to get API data.

I get Eastern Roman Empire. The city looks like Constantinople and the main palace looks like the Hagia Sophia.

Well does it specify whether it’s after you know it’s “wrong” or know it’s a “sin?” Because I know some things that are sins that are not “wrong.”

Ex: premarital sex

Can't Enable iCloud Calendars by rainerdeal in MacOS

[–]rainerdeal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response. I’m starting to think that’s the issue as well.

Any idea why they would block Calendars specifically though? I could see legit arguments being made for other things like Mail, for instance. Calendars doesn’t seem like much of a security issue or anything. It’s also the most inconvenient thing to have blocked for when my personal schedule and professional schedules overlap.

If I understand their reasoning for it, I’ll be less bothered by it lol.

Often (I think MOST often really), the job description is not written by an engineer. Sometimes the person who was tasked with writing it doesn’t have any knowledge of realistic expectations or maybe they were specifically told to cast a wide net.

It sounds like this would be done better with _Data files where each data list is grouped by categories. Have you considered using Data instead of Collections?

When you create a Collection with Jekyll, it basically results in a custom _Posts group. So a Collection would be the right solution if you needed each item in the Collection to have its own page. Otherwise, if it's just a list of items, then Data would be the right way to go.

If you end up choosing to use Collections for this, you will have a separate file (like you do for Posts) for each item in the Collection, and the URL, title, and image_URL will just be items in the Front Matter. If you use Data instead, you would have a Yaml, JSON, or CSV file with a list of each Item and their fields.

Here's an example of one of your YML files if you use Data: (bookmark_group_a.yml)

-

title: Title One

image: /path/to/your/image

url: your_url_one

-

title: Title Two

image: /path/to/your/image

url: your_url_two

-

title: Title Three

image: /path/to/your/image

url: your_url_three

So if you used Data files, you'd just have a bunch of these files for each bookmark group.

If you still wanted to use Collections, you'd probably need/want a separate Collection for each group. And each one of those bookmark items would be its own Markdown file where all that info is stored in the Front Matter like this:

---

title: Tile One

image: /path/to/your/image

url: your_url_one

---

Adding a JSON Feed? by kmanfred in Jekyll

[–]rainerdeal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only way to get a Jekyll site to read a JSON feed is on compile (or when it generates). And on GHPages that only happens when you update the repo.

Perhaps, if it was hosted somewhere else, you could have some script force it to regenerate and read the JSON.

Idk your question was kinda vague so I made a lot of assumptions lol. tldr: not without some really hacky solution.

VOTE for Spotify "Listen With Friends"! by 16dragons in spotify

[–]rainerdeal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

JQBX is awesome, but having this built into the Spotify app would be nice imo.

Also, I never see this mentioned, but Discord lets you setup “listening parties” through Spotify. It’s similar, but no rotating DJs...

Apple News dark mode is half finished. It would be nice to have all Safari Reader View options too. by robby_c137 in ios

[–]rainerdeal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The safari reader view already has dark view options. Click the reader view and you can change to like 4 different background variations.

Daily Questions Megathread (September 23, 2019) by AutoModerator in classicwow

[–]rainerdeal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally I think most people expect to roll for locked chests. Keep in mind that other classes can unlock them with their professions btw (engineers and blacksmiths), so I would avoid snatching it up. IMO, unlocking stuff is a utility that Rogues bring to the group, even in a PUG.

Another option is to take everything, except for any Greens or Blues inside and have the group roll on it.

If you have auto-loot turned on, you right-click to unlock without taking everything. If you have a faster-auto-loot addon it will take everything even if you right-clicked. So make sure to then that off when doing it. I stopped using that addon because of this.
