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 achieved: [ https://hinst.github.io/ ]

  • New Feature 📝 I've added the ability for the administrator (me) to edit post text.
    • I had to create this feature to fix an error in the LLM translator. The model translates "self-propelled scooter" inconsistently:
      • Scooter - Correct 👌
      • Skateboard - Incorrect 😐
    • The reason for this variation is not clear. It seems to depend on the AI model’s context.
  • New Feature ⚙️ I've implemented a settings page where you can change the color theme and language:
    • Color: System, Dark, Light
    • Language: System, English, Russian, German
  • I configured Adminer for my cluster. https://www.adminer.org
    • Now you can view and edit a SQLite database 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 the post timezone.
  • The work was quite intense. I wanted to make sure as many features and bugs were resolved before the end of the week, so I spent 5+ hours coding on Sunday. I think next week I’ll tackle a simpler project.
