The Story of KLogs: What happens when an Mechanical Engineer codes

Since i no longer work at Wearhouse Automation Startup (WAS for short) and havnt for many years i feel as though i should recount the tale of the most bonkers program i ever wrote, but we need to establish some background

WAS has its HQ very far away from the big customer site and i worked as a Field Service Engineer (FSE) on site. so i learned early on that if a problem needed to be solved fast, WE had to do it. we never got many updates on what was coming down the pipeline for us or what issues were being worked on. this made us very independent

As such, we got good at reading the robot logs ourselves. it took too much time to send the logs off to HQ for analysis and get back what the problem was. we can read. now GETTING the logs is another thing.

the early robots we cut our teeth on used 2.4 gHz wifi to communicate with FSE's so dumping the logs was as simple as pushing a button in a little application and it would spit out a txt file

later on our robots were upgraded to use a 2.4 mHz xbee radio to communicate with us. which was FUCKING SLOW. and log dumping became a much more tedious process. you had to connect, go to logging mode, and then the robot would vomit all the logs in the past 2 min OR the entirety of its memory bank (only 2 options) into a terminal window. you would then save the terminal window and open it in a text editor to read them. it could take up to 5 min to dump the entire log file and if you didnt dump fast enough, the ACK messages from the control server would fill up the logs and erase the error as the memory overwrote itself.

this missing logs problem was a Big Deal for software who now weren't getting every log from every error so a NEW method of saving logs was devised: the robot would just vomit the log data in real time over a DIFFERENT radio and we would save it to a KQL server. Thanks Daddy Microsoft.

now whats KQL you may be asking. why, its Microsofts very own SQL clone! its Kusto Query Language. never mind that the system uses a SQL database for daily operations. lets use this proprietary Microsoft thing because they are paying us

so yay, problem solved. we now never miss the logs. so how do we read them if they are split up line by line in a database? why with a query of course!

select * from tbLogs where RobotUID = [64CharLongString] and timestamp > [UnixTimeCode]

if this makes no sense to you, CONGRATULATIONS! you found the problem with this setup. Most FSE's were BAD at SQL which meant they didnt read logs anymore. If you do understand what the query is, CONGRATULATIONS! you see why this is Very Stupid.

You could not search by robot name. each robot had some arbitrarily assigned 64 character long string as an identifier and the timestamps were not set to local time. so you had run a lookup query to find the right name and do some time zone math to figure out what part of the logs to read. oh yeah and you had to download KQL to view them. so now we had both SQL and KQL on our computers

NOBODY in the field like this.

But Daddy Microsoft comes to the rescue

see we didnt JUST get KQL with part of that deal. we got the entire Microsoft cloud suite. and some people (like me) had been automating emails and stuff with Power Automate

This is Microsoft Power Automate. its Microsoft's version of Scratch but it has hooks into everything Microsoft. SharePoint, Teams, Outlook, Excel, it can integrate with all of it. i had been using it to send an email once a day with a list of all the robots in maintenance.

this gave me an idea

and i checked

and Power Automate had hooks for KQL

KLogs is actually short for Kusto Logs

I did not know how to program in Power Automate but damn it anything is better then writing KQL queries. so i got to work. and about 2 months later i had a BEHEMOTH of a Power Automate program. it lagged the webpage and many times when i tried to edit something my changes wouldn't take and i would have to click in very specific ways to ensure none of my variables were getting nuked. i dont think this was the intended purpose of Power Automate but this is what it did

the KLogger would watch a list of Teams chats and when someone typed "klogs" or pasted a copy of an ERROR mesage, it would spring into action.

it extracted the robot name from the message and timestamp from teams

it would lookup the name in the database to find the 64 long string UID and the location that robot was assigned too

it would reply to the message in teams saying it found a robot name and was getting logs

it would run a KQL query for the database and get the control system logs then export then into a CSV

it would save the CSV with the a .xls extension into a folder in ShairPoint (it would make a new folder for each day and location if it didnt have one already)

it would send ANOTHER message in teams with a LINK to the file in SharePoint

it would then enter a loop and scour the robot logs looking for the keyword ESTOP to find the error. (it did this because Kusto was SLOWER then the xbee radio and had up to a 10 min delay on syncing)

if it found the error, it would adjust its start and end timestamps to capture it and export the robot logs book-ended from the event by ~ 1 min. if it didnt, it would use the timestamp from when it was triggered +/- 5 min

it saved THOSE logs to SharePoint the same way as before

it would send ANOTHER message in teams with a link to the files

it would then check if the error was 1 of 3 very specific type of error with the camera. if it was it extracted the base64 jpg image saved in KQL as a byte array, do the math to convert it, and save that as a jpg in SharePoint (and link it of course)

and then it would terminate. and if it encountered an error anywhere in all of this, i had logic where it would spit back an error message in Teams as plaintext explaining what step failed and the program would close gracefully

I deployed it without asking anyone at one of the sites that was struggling. i just pointed it at their chat and turned it on. it had a bit of a rocky start (spammed chat) but man did the FSE's LOVE IT.

about 6 months later software deployed their answer to reading the logs: a webpage that acted as a nice GUI to the KQL database. much better then an CSV file

it still needed you to scroll though a big drop-down of robot names and enter a timestamp, but i noticed something. all that did was just change part of the URL and refresh the webpage

SO I MADE KLOGS 2 AND HAD IT GENERATE THE URL FOR YOU AND REPLY TO YOUR MESSAGE WITH IT. (it also still did the control server and jpg stuff). Theres a non-zero chance that klogs was still in use long after i left that job

now i dont recommend anyone use power automate like this. its clunky and weird. i had to make a variable called "Carrage Return" which was a blank text box that i pressed enter one time in because it was incapable of understanding /n or generating a new line in any capacity OTHER then this (thanks support forum).

im also sure this probably is giving the actual programmer people anxiety. imagine working at a company and then some rando you've never seen but only heard about as "the FSE whos really good at root causing stuff", in a department that does not do any coding, managed to, in their spare time, build and release and entire workflow piggybacking on your work without any oversight, code review, or permission.....and everyone liked it

A business’s website is its most important digital asset. When it comes to designing a new website or redesigning an existing one, WordPress is the most obvious CMS. WordPress offers self-hosted solutions and is open-source software that allows anyone to edit its plugins, enabling users to add functionality without touching any core function code.

WordPress is constantly changing as companies worldwide move toward more dynamic, feature-rich websites. WordPress 6.7 is now available with plenty of enhancements, security patches, and new features that increase its functionality, usability, and adaptability. Keeping up with the latest WordPress updates is essential for anyone working in website design and development. In this blog article we cover some key updates and enhancements with latest WordPress release.

What is new in WordPress 6.7?

WordPress 6.7 includes a number of exciting updates that will further streamline the design and development process for your website design projects. Let us examine this update’s salient features:

1. Better Features for the Block Editor

The enhanced block editor, called Gutenberg, is one of WordPress 6.7’s most notable features. More customization choices, enhanced design capabilities, and more efficient workflows for content producers are all made possible by the latest updates.

Drag-and-Drop Improvements: Adding new elements to your pages is now easier with the block editor’s more user-friendly drag-and-drop functionality.

New Block Patterns: Without requiring custom code, WordPress 6.7 offers more pre-made block patterns that let users quickly create eye-catching layouts. For companies wishing to create a unique website without a significant learning curve, these patterns are excellent because they improve the user experience.

Improved Color Palettes and Typography: With the latest release, designers now have more options for color schemes and typography, allowing them to customize the visual appeal of the website.

2. Advances in Full Site Editing (FSE)

WordPress development is still heavily focused on Full Site Editing (FSE), and the 6.7 release brings a number of enhancements in this area. From a single interface, FSE enables users to modify all elements of their website, including headers, footers, sidebars, and even site-wide settings.

Global Styles: With WordPress 6.7, global style options have been expanded, allowing website owners to define color schemes, font styles, and layouts for the entire site, making it easier to maintain a consistent design across all pages.

Template Part Customization: Customizing template elements like headers and footers within the block editor without requiring access to the theme files is now simpler thanks to the latest FSE updates.

The Future of WordPress Development: Trends and Tools You Need to Know

WordPress has come a long way since its inception in 2003. Today, it powers over 40% of all websites on the internet, making it the world’s most popular content management system (CMS). But what does the future hold for WordPress development? Let’s explore the trends and tools shaping the next generation of WordPress sites.

1. The Rise of Headless WordPress

One of the most exciting trends in WordPress development is the rise of headless WordPress. In a headless setup, WordPress serves as a content management backend, while a separate front-end framework, like React or Vue.js, handles the user interface. This decoupling offers developers greater flexibility, faster load times, and a more dynamic user experience. As businesses demand more from their websites, headless WordPress is quickly gaining traction.

2. Increased Focus on Performance and Speed

With the introduction of Core Web Vitals, website performance is more critical than ever. WordPress developers are increasingly focused on optimizing site speed, using techniques like lazy loading, minifying CSS and JavaScript, and utilizing Content Delivery Networks (CDNs). Tools like WP Rocket and NitroPack are becoming essential for ensuring that WordPress sites not only look great but also load quickly, providing a seamless experience for users.

3. Emphasis on Accessibility

Accessibility is no longer an afterthought; it's a priority. The future of WordPress development involves creating websites that are accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. Developers are now using tools like WAVE and Lighthouse to check for accessibility issues and are adopting best practices such as using semantic HTML, ensuring proper color contrast, and providing keyboard navigability.

4. The Advent of Full Site Editing (FSE)

Full Site Editing (FSE) is a game-changer in the WordPress world. With FSE, developers and users can customize every part of a WordPress website using blocks, making it easier to create dynamic and personalized designs. This new feature allows for greater control and flexibility, enabling developers to build and modify themes in a more modular way.

5. AI and Automation in WordPress

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is gradually making its way into WordPress development. Tools like RankMath use AI to optimize content for SEO, while plugins like Akismet utilize machine learning to block spam. In the future, we will likely see more AI-driven tools that simplify complex tasks, like content creation and customer support, making WordPress development more efficient.

6. Growth of eCommerce Integration

With the boom in online shopping, eCommerce integration in WordPress is growing rapidly. WooCommerce, the most popular WordPress eCommerce plugin, continues to evolve, offering more features and tools for online store owners. WordPress developers are now focusing on creating optimized, secure, and scalable eCommerce sites that deliver a superior shopping experience.

7. Advanced Security Measures

As cyber threats become more sophisticated, so do the security measures in WordPress development. Developers are increasingly prioritizing security by using tools like Wordfence and Sucuri to protect sites from malicious attacks. Regular updates, secure coding practices, and the implementation of two-factor authentication (2FA) are becoming standard to safeguard WordPress sites.

8. Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) with WordPress

Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are transforming the mobile experience by combining the best of web and mobile apps. WordPress developers are increasingly exploring PWAs to create fast, reliable, and engaging websites. Tools like Super Progressive Web Apps and PWA for WP & AMP make it easier to turn WordPress sites into PWAs, offering offline access and push notifications.

9. Gutenberg Evolution

The Gutenberg editor, introduced in 2018, has revolutionized how content is created in WordPress. It’s evolving rapidly, with new blocks and features added regularly. The future of WordPress development will see Gutenberg becoming even more powerful, allowing developers to create highly customized, content-rich websites with minimal effort.

10. Leveraging the Power of REST API

The WordPress REST API is opening new possibilities for developers, enabling them to create more dynamic and interactive websites. By integrating WordPress with other platforms and applications, developers can build complex solutions that were previously unimaginable. Expect to see more use of the REST API as developers look for innovative ways to connect WordPress with the broader digital ecosystem.

Conclusion

The future of WordPress development is bright, dynamic, and full of opportunities. By staying ahead of these trends and leveraging the right tools, developers can create websites that are faster, more secure, and more user-friendly than ever before. Whether you’re a business looking to enhance your online presence or a developer aiming to expand your skills, now is the time to embrace these changes.

Need help navigating this evolving landscape? Consider hiring a freelance WordPress developer from India or a remote WordPress developer to ensure your site stays ahead of the curve with the latest features and functionalities.

Free WordPress Themes Everyone Uses Right Now [2024]

That’s why we spent several months testing hundreds of free WordPress themes and picked the top 57 based on flexibility, code structure and regular updates.

You can use all of the following themes SAFELY.

They offer a powerful and impressive website that takes minutes to create and zero experience.

Themes work great for blogs, personal, corporate, e-commerce, and portfolio sites. Whatever.

Just plug and play (and COMPLETE your page today!).

How To Pick The Best Free WordPress Theme

How on earth do you go through 10,000 free WordPress themes? Yes, there are many WordPress themes.

Let me share a secret with you: You don’t.

But that’s when we come into play, creating the ultimate theme collection consisting of multiple sub-sections (see quick access above), covering various niches to ensure something for everyone.

We focused on multiple theme characteristics to ensure reliability so that you don’t need to do much thinking, just act:

Mobile-friendliness: A theme must be 100% responsive because more than half of the global web use is on mobile. And it’s also an SEO ranking factor that you should pay close attention to.

Updates and support: Our second ranking factor was to check updates and support. (Outdated themes are a no-go.) You can be sure that a frequently updated theme will be compatible with the latest WordPress and PHP versions. Regarding support, a free theme doesn’t necessarily offer one-on-one support, but it needs extensive documentation and an active support forum.

Customizations: Even a free WP theme must be customizable to some extent. We added themes you can brand and tweak to be proud of your online presence.

Still, have doubts? Here is a full guide on choosing the right theme for you.

Free themes are great for your website because they are usually smaller and have fewer scripts and files, making them load much faster. Compared to premium offerings, free themes usually achieve the highest Google Page Speed scores.

The first rebuilding blocks

Korczak Ziolkowski wakes up early on a bitter cold winter’s morning – the same way he has for several decades – after breakfasting and a few mugs of the hottest coffee his palette can stand, he shoulders his tool belt and trods his way in knee-high snow to the eastern wall of the Crazy Horse Memorial… his lifelong unfinished masterpiece.

I like to think that working on one’s own personal website is a lot like Korczak Ziolkowski’s pursuit of progress on the ambitious mountain-sized memorial he started in the late-1940s. He knew he’d never complete the work in his lifetime. He knew that each day’s progress would be measured in inches and pounds and that, only after a generation’s worth of effort, would he be able to look back and see that what he had begun to make was worth it.

In late-November 2023, I changed jobs from VP of Marketing to Senior Product Manager (and lead developer) of Hubbub. When I was working in marketing I needed technical side projects to scratch that particular itch I’ve always had. But now that I spend some amount of time every workday programming – I don’t need to be working on side projects as often. And I certainly don’t need to be building my own static site generator anymore. But I do need a better playground to test and improve Hubbub. So I’ve switched back to WordPress to power my blog.

If you were following along on my journey to build Tuff, the static site generator that powered my site for well over a year, you might be wondering whether I’m upset that I’m replacing it. Wasn’t it a waste of my time? I think it was a valuable project for me to work on.

Martiijn Doolaard, a web designer, musician, cyclist, and now successful YouTuber rebuilding stone animal structures in the alps (who I watch every Sunday with Eliza) recently had a similar reaction to one of his projects. Doolaard had spent a great deal of time building a crane to move large heavy stones on the roofs of his buildings. He spent several weeks honing the tool to work for his needs – only to set it aside when the day came to use it. He answered some questions about whether or not he felt that was wasted time and he said (I’m summarizing) that it wasn’t a waste of time because he enjoyed building the crane.

I enjoyed building Tuff. And that should be enough to consider it time well spent. Tuff is still currently powering a few of my other websites (though, I plan to move them all to WordPress over the course of this year). Imagine building something from scratch that you were able to use for more than a year on multiple websites? That isn’t wasted time. I learned a bunch, used my brain, and honed some of my skills that I use everyday.

In order to improve a software product, I need to be one of its most active users. We acquired Hubbub in December 2023 and for the last few months we’ve had a roadmap of low hanging fruit updates. We’ve fixed some bugs, patched some potential (albeit mild) security vulnerabilities, and added some new features. But our best work is definitely ahead of us. We’re now up-to-speed on the codebase, the issues, the customers, etc. and we’re in the phase where I’m using the product everyday. I’m beginning to have ideas of how the product can be much better, more capable, and more valuable for customers. It is also more likely that I will run into an issue by using the product daily so that I can fix the issue before customers even notice it.

My website is a child theme of the Twenty Twenty Four theme. When I set out to begin this rebuild my goal was to use WordPress’ full site editor (FSE) to complete my entire site with writing as little code as possible. I thought it would be a worthy exercise to help me understand the state of this part of the WordPress ecosystem.

The full site editor in WordPress has really improved a lot and at a fairly rapid pace. While I wasn’t able to complete my entire site without any code, it may not be long before I’ll be able to do so. I’ve seen a lot of complaints in the community about the direction that WordPress is taking with Gutenberg and the FSE. Alternative forks are being worked on. My opinion is that the FSE is the right direction to go, especially to enable non-technical users to build their own websites. I have a lot more to say about this but overall I’m bullish on the FSE.

My site uses a child theme so that I can enable custom post types, add custom styles, a Query Loop Block variation that adds custom taxonomies as filters, adds a template part for my new logo, enables some meta boxes for the metadata on portfolio items, adds support for the aside Post Format, and manipulates the guid in the database. A few of these features could have been done another way (perhaps by someone with more experience than me). I’m hoping that future versions of WordPress will allow me to remove code rather than add it.

Based on my experience rebuilding my website, I may write a separate post about some features that WordPress should have out-of-the-box that it currently does not. Maybe some of them are already underway.

My personal website is not as ambitious a project as Ziolkowski’s memorial of the Lokatan war leader, but I’m fairly certain that my website will never be truly finished. I’m glad that I spent the time to get to where it is today. There is a lot of work yet to be done (especially on mobile and the archive) but I’m excited to be publishing new stuff again. Recently I published a new portfolio piece, a podcast appearance, a new open source plugin, and some photos into my new snaps area.

Much more to come. Stay subscribed.
