  • Data conversion in Pandas dataframes: 3 approaches to try

    I have been working on data analysis for almost three years, and there are some starters that I think are essential for every data analyst using the popular Pandas library for Python. If you often do data transformations in Pandas, you know how annoying it can be to search the web for basic information every time you get started with a new dataframe.

    For me, one of those sore points is encoding text data. For some reason, I can never remember a good way to encode data when I need it. So, I decided to note down my three favorite ways of doing so. Let me know in the comments if you have any other alternatives.

  • Video capture in Squish 7.0 – feature focus

    Squish GUI Tester 7.0 is the first Squish edition to offer a unique new feature: video capture of test executions to debug and document tests.

    For a long time, it has been possible to capture screenshots of the desktop where AUT was running with Squish, whether automatically in case of a test failure or on-demand using API functions in scripting languages. While this helped users get an overview of the situation in AUT and on the desktop at the point of failure, it provided a rather static picture of the events.

  • Four-year Moziversary [Ed: Mozilla hire to turn Firefox into spyware.]

    It's my fourth Moziversary. It's been 4 years (and three days) now since I joined Mozilla as a Telemetry engineer. I joined Mozilla as a Firefox Telemetry Engineer in March 2018, I blogged three times already: 2019, 2020, 2021.

    The past year continued to be challenging. Except for a brief 3-week period the Berlin office stayed close, so we all continue to work from home. I haven't met (most of) my team mates in person since 2020. I hope that in 2022 I will have the chance to meet some of them again, maybe even all at once.

  • WCH CH348 is an 8-port USB to serial chip with up to 48 GPIOs - CNX Software

    The good news is that WCH shared the documentation on Github, but they did so in a weird way since they are just updating a zip file with all datasheet for CH34x chips as they get released, instead of having a directory, and commit new files or revision as they come by.

  • How To Install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9 - idroot

    In this tutorial, we will show you how to install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9. For those of you who didn’t know, MongoDB is a high-performance, highly scalable document-oriented NoSQL database. Unlike in SQL databases where data is stored in rows and columns inside tables, in MongoDB, data is structured in JSON-like format inside records which are referred to as documents. The open-source attribute of MongoDB as a database software makes it an ideal candidate for almost any database-related project. This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the MongoDB NoSQL database on AlmaLinux 9. You can follow the same instructions for CentOS and Rocky Linux.

  • Self-host a Ghost Blog With Traefik

    Ghost is a very popular open-source content management system. Started as an alternative to WordPress and it went on to become an alternative to Substack by focusing on membership and newsletter. The creators of Ghost offer managed Pro hosting but it may not fit everyone's budget. Alternatively, you can self-host it on your own cloud servers. On Linux handbook, we already have a guide on deploying Ghost with Docker in a reverse proxy setup. Instead of Ngnix reverse proxy, you can also use another software called Traefik with Docker. It is a popular open-source cloud-native application proxy, API Gateway, Edge-router, and more. I use Traefik to secure my websites using an SSL certificate obtained from Let's Encrypt. Once deployed, Traefik can automatically manage your certificates and their renewals. In this tutorial, I'll share the necessary steps for deploying a Ghost blog with Docker and Traefik.
