If you are swag-hungry…
If you are a Devsprint lover…

"More on" sounds a bit strange. Consider "Furthermore", "Moreover", "In addition"

| * This conference has coolest Devsprint. The organizers understand the value of | ||

Consider "such importance placed on the Devsprint" or similar.

||
| * I observed the number of corporate stalls was less than compared to other | ||
| Python conferences. A stole from Reserved-bit, Redhat and PSF community stall |
| was there. | ||
|
|
||
| * A workshop section was completely missing. In my opinion, the workshop helps | ||
| the beginners to start. There were few topics which can be better represented |
|
|
||
| * I was unable to observe any dedicated section for an Open space discussion. | ||
| This section is helpful for communities, contributors to discuss on | ||
| interesting problems and reasoned together. |

to discuss interesting problems and reason together.
"Reason" sounds funny here. Perhaps "think".

"You are swag-hungry" should be "If you are swag-hungry".

This sentence should also start with "If".

"More on" doesn't scan for me - "Furthermore" would probably be better here.

"Open source" shouldn't be capitalized.

I think the point of this sentence was supposed to be that there should be more workshops. Saying there are "few topics" which work better when presented as workshops makes it sound like you mean the opposite. I would change "few" to "a few" here for that reason.

"communities, contributors" should be "communities and contributors". "discuss on" should just be "discuss".

"Open" is unnecessarily capitalized here.

@Benaiah @japanoise Many thanks for your review. I have tried to update the writing according to your suggestions. I request to verify the changes I mad. Thanks! |
- scripts/build & scripts/test: add set -euo pipefail (and a shebang to scripts/test) so a failed build aborts CI instead of link-checking a stale _site (review #1) - scripts/test: move the --ignore-urls list into a documented bash array (review #5); note the baseurl<->swap-urls coupling in _config.yml (#6) - ci.yml: run bundle exec bundler-audit check --update as a real per-PR security scan (#2); add least-privilege permissions: contents: read (#3) - Pin all workflow actions to commit SHAs with version comments (#4) - Re-add minification via jekyll-minifier 0.2.2 (Jekyll 4-compatible, production-only) (#7) - Drop analytics: remove the leftover GA placeholder; UA died in 2023 (#8) - Fix 45 image references across 11 posts + about.md that used {{site.url}}/assets or hardcoded /assets and omitted baseurl, so they 404'd on the /Blog project-page URL. Verified via a production (minified) build + htmlproofer run with all internal links resolving.
* Modernize build/deploy: Jekyll 4.4, GitHub Actions, GitHub Pages - Upgrade Jekyll 3.8.5 -> 4.4.1, pin Ruby 3.2.0, refresh gem dependencies and add x86_64-linux to the lockfile so CI can install on Linux runners - Add bundler-audit as a dev dependency; no known CVEs found - Fix scripts/test: htmlproofer was silently checking zero pages because the shell's missing LANG made Ruby default to US-ASCII; also drop the https-enforcement noise on old post links and ignore confirmed-dead external URLs - Retire the dead Travis CI / rsync-to-jaysinh.com pipeline (.travis.yml, scripts/deploy, CNAME, keypair.pem.enc) since that domain is no longer owned; the site now targets https://ultimatecoder.github.io/Blog/ with the matching /Blog baseurl - Add .github/workflows/ci.yml (build + link-check on PRs) and pages.yml (build + deploy to GitHub Pages on push to master) * Ignore two more external links that block GitHub Actions' IPs pythonexpress.in and hackerearth.com both return 200 from a normal network but 403 specifically from GitHub-hosted runner IPs (bot/WAF blocking, not a dead link) - confirmed via the ci.yml failure on PR #99. * Address PR review: fail-fast, security scan, minifier, image baseurl fix - scripts/build & scripts/test: add set -euo pipefail (and a shebang to scripts/test) so a failed build aborts CI instead of link-checking a stale _site (review #1) - scripts/test: move the --ignore-urls list into a documented bash array (review #5); note the baseurl<->swap-urls coupling in _config.yml (#6) - ci.yml: run bundle exec bundler-audit check --update as a real per-PR security scan (#2); add least-privilege permissions: contents: read (#3) - Pin all workflow actions to commit SHAs with version comments (#4) - Re-add minification via jekyll-minifier 0.2.2 (Jekyll 4-compatible, production-only) (#7) - Drop analytics: remove the leftover GA placeholder; UA died in 2023 (#8) - Fix 45 image references across 11 posts + about.md that used {{site.url}}/assets or hardcoded /assets and omitted baseurl, so they 404'd on the /Blog project-page URL.
