Top 5 tips of using meta tag in html web pages to improve SEO

 Meta tags are meta (additional) information usually describing the page and its contents. This is generally for search engines to read and understand the content of your page.

1. Set the charset -
<meta charset="utf-8">
This will ensure that when you go for international character sets, you will not see gibberish. If you do not understand, safely use the above statement for any html page.

2. Set the author name
<meta name="author" content="<author name>">
It is learnt that this information can be helpful in identifying the original author of the content. Search engines do use this information.

3. Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
<meta name="description" content="The important keywords of your article should go in here, so that when a user searches on a search engine, the page rank and the probability of the search results displaying on top results increases."

4. Keywords
<meta name="keyword" content="HTML,CSS,javascript">
Keywords will help Search engines as part of SEO ( Search Engine Optimization ) filter your page when a user uses keywords to search their results. It is also recommended that these keywords be frequently used- not overused in the content of the page being displayed to allow search engine to consider the page and keywords relevant and move your page up the order.

5.Title tag
<title>Your page title</title>
Even though this is not part meta tag, it is worth mentioning that this tag also adds value when a user searches on a Search engine and is an important parameter for SEO (Search Engine Optimizer), a key placeholder.

Where are the macOS commands located? What are /usr/bin /usr/local/bin directories used for?

We have all heard of /usr/bin /usr/local/bin and so on. Do we know how and why they are organized?Let's get started

/bin - user utilities - cd ls cat bash cp pwd - all these are here. Did you know? 

/sbin - s for system program and administration

ping mount reboot shutdown ifconfig - ring a bell?

/usr/bin - non-system programs - 

awk base64 curl emacs find grep ssh php vim perl php python rake rails sed

/usr/sbin - system daemons(background processes) & system utilities only

chown chmod cron httpd sendmail sshd apachectl - sytem utilities that are user specific

/usr/local/bin - The programs installed over the base operating systems due to a dmg file installation or using a package manager might land up here.

Example: Lets say you install mysql it would be installed in /usr/local/mysql/bin. Similarly php would be installed in /usr/local/php

Summary:
/bin and /sbin - commands provided by OS - /bin - consumers /sbin - system administrators
/usr/bin - utilities used by developers
/usr/sbin - utilities used by OS administrators
/usr/local/bin - compilers/executables softwares installed - php and mysql
/usr/local/sbin - administrative commands for softwares installed - Apache restart, mysql server start re-start

We all use cd, ls and many such commands in the macOS Terminal day in and day out. I am better than yesterday after I learnt this today. I know where to search my executables.

Are you feeling low? Top 5 ways to live with coronvavirus COVID-19 pademic

COVID-19 made it's may into 2020 and now 2021.

How do I feel about it? It's mixed emotions.

I miss the strangers, the acquaintances, friends, colleagues and buddies I use to spend time with.We are all aging as the day passes by, our friends and family are not limited to only family.

The pandemic has taken a toil on our mental health. We as people are born to be on the move.

I miss the coffee talks, the cafeteria chats, eleventh hour plans and it all comes down to freedom and independence.

We have now seen a series of lockdowns and unlockdowns but our minds have taken a hit.

I am no spiritual healer not a motivational speaker, but here's how I deal with the ups and downs and high's and low's.

1. Read a book:
I wasn't a voracious reader ever, I've managed to be better than I was. Pick up a book, read 5 pages a day.

2. Health:
I wouldn't suggest this to people. I was overweight and still I am, I had a routine to walk ~10,000 steps a day a year before pandemic and I lost 1.5 kgs a month. I continued this for 14 months and I lost ~20 kgs. This story is for another day.

I walk 3 to 4 times a day - 10 to 15 min walk in my room, jog around. This will clear up your mind.

3. Ask yourself, What am I doing? and What should I be doing?
I picked this from a book. We are become mindful with each day, but with each day we add thoughts to the millions we already have. Our whole life is about thoughts.

If you have work to do and you want to focus, question yourself. What am I doing? You'll notice your brain stops for a second, keeps all thoughts aside and becomes blank. Continuously do this the whole day, you will observe a sense of awareness.

4. Pick a hobby:

 Learn something and start writing. Try to enjoy activities with family. If you like to be alone, pick an area of interest, read and write a blog about it like I am doing now.

5. Time your activities:
Time your activities in the day, use a mobile to time them, you should be able to make a 24 hour plan for yourself in a couple of months. This is how I did it. Time a task let's say read a book for 5 mins or 10 mins. Snooze it if you want to continue it for another 5 mins. Eventually you will find that time that suits your concentration levels.

Remember to take breaks and don't let the breaks break you either.

Cheers,

Ajith

 

What does CRSF stand for?

CRSF stands for Cross-site request forgery.
CSRF is also used as an abbreviation in defences against CSRF attacks, such as techniques that use header data, form data, or cookies, to test for and prevent such attacks.

The app must send a request header called X-CSRF-Token with the value fetch in this call. The server generates a token, stores it in the user's session table, and sends the value in the X-CSRF-Token HTTP response header.

 

Cross-site request forgery, also known as one-click attack or session riding and abbreviated as CSRF (sometimes pronounced sea-surf) or XSRF, is a type of malicious exploit of a website where unauthorized commands are submitted from a user that the web application trusts.

 

cross-site scripting (XSS), exploits the trust a user has for a particular site,
CSRF exploits the trust that a site has in a user's browser.

How to create a HTTP server, listener and response with NodeJS at runtime?

Pre-requisute: Install nodejs, visual studio code and the http modul

Descrption: The use of createServer from http module - will help create an object that servers as a webserver running on localhost:8080

const {createServer} =require('http');
cons server=createServer((request,response))=>{
    response.writeHead(200,{'Content-Type':'application/json'});
    response.write(JSON.stringify({a:1,b:2,c:3}));
    return response.end();
});

server.listen(8080);

What does this mean?

This means, you can technically launch a webserver on the fly and create a response work temporarily and shut it down. 

I am assuming its a good strategy to not have a webserver always running, but that question is for another day.

Cheers

Yes it helps in IT Automation
Business Scenario : Configuration - 100 apache servers and database servers

Mechanism:
1) Pull Configuration - 2) Push Configuration ( no client installed on nodes, Server pushes)

Core Elements of Ansible:
1st part Core - Playbook
Playbook - instructions to confiugure the node
Written in YAML to describe the data
YAML - YAML ain't a mark up language
...
name: play1
hosts: webserver
tasks:
    -name:install apache
    yum:
        name:apache
        state:present
    -name: start apache

Read a nice article on pin drop

Can you hear a pin drop?

What is the meaning of pin drop silence?

Following are some instances when silence could speak louder than voice.

Take 1:

Field Marshal Sam Bahadur Maneckshaw once started addressing a public meeting at Ahmedabad in English.

The crowd started chanting, "Speak in Gujarati.  We will hear you only if you speak in Gujarati."

Field Marshal Sam Bahadur Maneckshaw stopped. Swept the audience with a hard stare and replied,

"Friends, I have fought many a battle in my long career.

I have learned Punjabi from men of the Sikh Regiment; Marathi from the Maratha Regiment; Tamil from the men of the Madras Sappers; Bengali from the men of the Bengal Sappers; Hindi from the Bihar Regiment; and even Nepali from the Gurkha Regiment.

Unfortunately there was no soldier from Gujarat from whom I could have learned Gujarati."

You could have heard a pin drop.

----

Take 2:

JFK'S Secretary of State, Dean Rusk, was in France in the early 60's when Charles DeGaule, the French President, decided to pull out of NATO.
 
DeGaule said he wanted all US military out of France as soon as possible.

Rusk responded, "Does that include the 180,000 who are buried here ?"

DeGaule could not respond.

You could have heard a pin drop.

----

Take 3:

Robert Whiting, an elderly US gentleman of 83, arrived in Paris by plane.

At French Customs, he took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry on.

"You have been to France before, Monsieur?", the Customs officer asked sarcastically.

Mr. Whiting admitted that he had been to France previously.

"Then you should know enough to have your passport ready."

The American said, “The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it."

"Impossible. Americans always have to show their passports on arrival in France !", the Customs officer sneered.

The American senior gave the Frenchman a long, hard look.

Then he quietly explained.

"Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach, at 4:40am, on D-Day in 1944, to help liberate your country, I couldn't find a single Frenchman to show a passport to"

You could have heard a pin drop.

Summary : Firefox Extensions and Themes

What is a firefox add-on?


Add-ons add new functionality to Gecko-based applications such as Firefox, SeaMonkey, and Thunderbird.

There are two main types of add-on:  

1. Extensions add new features to the application
2. Themes modify the application's user interface.[UI]

Mozilla operates a repository at addons.mozilla.org, also known as AMO

You don't have to submit add-ons to AMO, but if you do, users can take confidence in the fact that they have been reviewed, and you can benefit from AMO's visibility as a source for useful add-ons.

As a developer one needs to follow a set of guidelines to help ensure that they provide a good experience to users.

There are three different techniques you can use to build extensions:

1. Add-on SDK-based extensions, 
2. Manually bootstrapped restartless extensions
3. Overlay extensions.

Book Review: "Beginning Responsive Design with HTML and CSS3" by Jonathan Fielding

I had this thought of reading about responsive design.
I was able to quick read about 107 pages an ebook on Beginning Responsive Design with HTML and CSS3 and it was worth it.

The Author Jonathan Fielding has wonderfully compiled the necessary meal required for an aspiring Web Developer.

The book gives you an insight of how well the HTML and CSS have advanced to reduce features once web developers dreamed off considering the complexity of screensize across devices and browsers.

It covers subject knowledge behind Responsive Design across Web Browsers across devices. Some new takeways are the Viewports, additions in HTML5, power of CSS3, limitations of CSS implementation and existing solutions that overcome them.

The book also covers multiple columns, Gradient Panels, Device simulators for Blackberry, Android,FirefoxOS et.,.

The examples are neatly driven that allow a developer to practice as they move.
This has been the best learning curve in understanding the concepts in practice.


I do want to highlight about "Media Queries". It saved me a traditional approach that i had wanted to implement.
I suggest people glance through the book that clearly breaks down logically and architecturally what a thinking developer should understand to save time and effort.

I reached 100+ pages admiring the topic Layouts (Fixed, Fluid and Elastic) and its technical reference and application in designing. I feel really wonderful and its one of my fastest reads. I'd love to finish this book and complete my review.
