| schestowitz | Nothing looked suspicious enough to do an article about | Jan 27 04:29 |
| schestowitz | "What do you know about this Roy?" | Jan 27 04:31 |
| schestowitz | I have modified /root/apachetop.sh slightly | Jan 27 07:06 |
| schestowitz | It now refreshes every 15 - not 30 - seconds | Jan 27 07:06 |
| schestowitz | Also, it helps show | Jan 27 07:06 |
| schestowitz | 1) traffic volume (below you see over a megabyte per second) | Jan 27 07:06 |
| schestowitz | 2) which pages are accessed more at a given time | Jan 27 07:06 |
| schestowitz | At this level it is anonymous (does not expose IPs/UAs) | Jan 27 07:06 |
| schestowitz | UAs can be shown by scrolling down (it's ncurses) and hitting left/right/spacebar | Jan 27 07:06 |
| schestowitz | It no longer lumps together top-level directories as before | Jan 27 07:06 |
| schestowitz | I was going to say one more thing, which I forgot while typing (it probably was not crucial anyway) | Jan 27 07:06 |
| schestowitz | Side note: earlier I rm'ed the last apache log, which left it as an open file. So I cannot redeem the disk space on /var easily. Not a big deal... | Jan 27 07:06 |
| schestowitz | Anyway, I'll try to make an article before I finish work at 9am | Jan 27 07:06 |

| schestowitz | contrast is contrast, roy. cyan on light grey is never going to be high-contrast. | Jan 27 19:32 |
| schestowitz | for what its worth, this is accessibility in design 101. very basic, introductory, very well-known, very useful stuff. you can ignore it if nobody else complains, but tweaking the script to not do this sort of thing would definitely improve it and make it less difficult to use. not really on a basis worth calling “subjective”, but certainly more for some people than others. | Jan 27 19:32 |
| schestowitz | the point about subjectivity is that cyan on light grey is not high-contrast for anybody. some people can deal with it, others will have trouble, but it is always low-contrast and thats very widely considered an issue in design as a rule. i mention it because it affects me. but disputing the rule is surprising, because contrast isnt some new-fangled 2019-2020 concept. your crt monitor might even have a knob for it. it certainly will have | Jan 27 19:32 |
