Personal Website

Weekly Coding • 2025-04-20

Hello everyone

Last week I spent about 12 hours working on code for my personal website, and here’s what I accomplished: [ https://hinst.github.io/ ]

  • New Feature 📝 I've added the ability for the admin (me) to edit blog post text.
    • I needed this feature to fix a bug in the LLM translator. The model translates "self-propelled scooter" differently:
      • Scooter - correctly 👌
      • Skateboard - incorrectly 😐
    • The reason for this inconsistency is not clear. It seems to depend on the AI model’s context.
  • New Feature ⚙️ I've created a settings page where you can change the color theme and language:
    • Color: System, Dark, Light
    • Language: System, English, Russian, German
  • I configured PHP Adminer for my cluster. https://www.adminer.org
    • Now you can view and edit SQLite databases using this tool.
    • Initially, I planned to use Adminer to fix Skateboard->Scooter, but later realized it would be inconvenient. We'll see what else this Adminer might be useful for in the future.
  • I fixed various minor issues, including post timezone settings.

The work was quite intense. I wanted to make sure I finished and fixed as many features and bugs as possible by the end of the week, so I spent 5+ hours coding on Sunday. I think next week I'll take on a simpler project.
