Hello! I go by Elnu on the internet, and this is my blog, I hope you find something of interest here. I’m 17, I’m interested in programming, GNU/Linux, studying Japanese, watching anime, drawing, and creative writing. I’m horrible at doing things consistently.
For now, I’ll be posting small Linux and programming-related posts explaining how to do various things that I happen to find useful. In the future, I’ll post larger, more interesting posts. Stay tuned! (〃＾▽＾〃)
This post is going to be a bit different than the usual programming posts. It’s more for myself to organize my thoughts on things that need to be done.
Overall, there are quite a few technological things that require maintenance. For a long time I’ve just been doing what’s easiest and what works, and now the side effects of that are piling up. Things I’ve put off doing, etc. So here’s a list of what needs to be maintained, …
For a project I’m working on (I’ll make a post about it once it’s done), I needed a large list of Japanese words, with the requirements being that the words be short and without kanji (only in hiragana). In addition, ideally they should be simple words that the average Japanese learner would know, and must be in a machine-readable format that I can use in JavaScript.
I just finished working on Soudan, a Rust-based comment system!
It’s now live on all posts on this site, feel free to give it a go in the comments at the bottom of the page! Markdown formatting is supported. If you submit your email address, it won’t be public, and is only used to display your Gravatar, if you have one.
Soudan is named after the word 相談 in Japanese, which means discussion or consultation.
