From time to time, I'm contacted by a recruitment agency through LinkedIn. The recruiter usually sends me a LinkedIn e-mail, telling me how (s)he is impressed by my profile. And (s)he offers me to contact him/her about a fantastic job opportunity that (s)he thinks I am a good fit for. The job is then described in a few lines.

I had been running GitLab in a Docker container for a while now. And it was time to review the installation. Firstly, it was four version late at least. Secondly, I wanted to switch it to HTTPS. Thirdly, I wanted to provide SSH access to git. As I run several other dockerized web applications on my server, I use jwilder's nginx reverse proxy. After some tests (thanks to Docker!), I found one working configuration. And here are the steps I followed to upgrade:

I just installed Eclipse Neon on a Linux Mint 18 machine. And discovered that tooltip windows were using a weird color theme: dark blue foreground on black background. I tried several tricks I found on various websites, without success. In the end, I found this one, which seems to work (but I have not used Eclipse in this new configuration for long enough):

We got a thunderstorm on Wednesday. My son took a few additional lightning pictures with the flash detector. Again, all flashes he saw were detected. So, we can consider that our field test is closed, and successful .

Give me some time to clean source code, hardware schematics and documentation, and I'll open-source the project. Stay tuned.

Like many software developers loving development, I spend a large part of my personal time on development projects. Some of them originate from relatives' or friends' requests. When they ask me for a delivery date, I try to commit to the date I give them. Name this pride or simply good project management . But in any case I have the need of a (simple) tool for project planning and tracking.

Yesterday, we got a thunderstorm. Usually, when people are on vacation, they prefer a nice weather. This is not the case for us . We took the car, and drove to a place a few kilometers southwest of Ancelle, the small village where we are staying for a week, in south of french Alps.

Our flash detector triggered several times, but we got only two pictures. Only one displays a flash. The other one was triggered by a distant intra-cloud lightning, and it's hardly visible on the picture. Other detections came from flashes in our back (yes!) or on our sides. Conclusion: I'm happy with sensitivity of this version of the trigger .

HTTP programming

An Action handles a Request and generates a Result.

A Controller is an object that generates Action values.

The built-in router translates each incoming request to an Action. Routes are defined in conf/routes. Each route is defined by three parts:

• HTTP method
• URI pattern
• call definition
