New post about HTTPS on this blog, improvements of the RSS feed format and a
small change in the legal notice about the
web hosting company.

Added

• New post about the switch to HTTPS.
• Explicit mention in the legal notice that the web hosting company is one of
  the third parties that has access to any logs.
• GTmetrix, SSLlabs and Securityheaders.io to web tools used.

Changed

• RSS feed format. Now it has the post description instead of the full post
  body under each post (to make it smaller) and the author's name+email on each
  post.

Removed

• Part in legal-notice about access/removal of personal data. Since the website
  is hosted by a web hosting company, I have no direct way ability to do it
  myself. The only way is to contact the company itself. I'm still available for
  any questions on the topic.

Fixed

• Links to the RSS feed now have a MIME type.
• Highlight.js now works even with HSTS headers.
• Typo in the BSD 3-clause license.
• Added trailing slashes in basically all taxonomy links.

The website is now served over a secure HTTPS connection and the webserver
sends security headers.

Added

• New keybase.io verification file replacing the
  previous, since it worked for HTTP only.

Changed

• The whole website is now available over HTTPS.
• HTTP requests are 301-redirected to an HTTPS URL. This means that no plaintext
  pure-HTTP connection is used to transfer the website content.
• Added 5 security headers including HSTS and CSP as indicated on
  securityheaders.io.
• All links in this changelog, readme, humans.txt files are now stated with
  https://matjaz.it instead of http://matjaz.it.
• Minimal adaptation of the Hugo configuration file for the multilingual support
  in Hugo.

Removed

• Unused CSS in layouts/partials.

Fixed

• Small change in the tone in the About page.
• Replaced 3 absolute URLs to relative ones. Hugo uses the BaseURL (now with
  HTTPS) to generate the absolute URLs anyway.

2016-07-08

A lot of improvements, optimizations and fixes from the previous versions
while keeping the looks mostly similar except for some slight difference of the
home page.

Added

• New post on why to choose Hugo for your blog/website
  instead of Wordpress.
• Favicons for every device, browser and shortcut icon thanks to the
  Real Favicon Generator.
• KeyBase verification file (same as used in previous version of the blog).
• HTML head meta tags for website description, keywords, author, license.
• Site map for humans as suggested by
  varvy.com.
• Inconsolata is the monospace
  font whenever <pre> or <code> tags are used.
• Pages with list of tags and
  categories sorted by number of posts
• A list of all software used to create the blog.
• series shortcode to list the posts sharing a tag, useful for listing all
  posts of a series

Changed

• The website content is now under the
  Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License
  so the ShareAlike part is removed and anyone is more free to use it.
• The source code parts and snippets published on the website are licensed
  under the BSD 3-Clause License.
• Enabled highlighting in
  The spam analysis post
  otherwise the verbatim text was too wide for the content column and not
  scrollable horizontally.
• The home page provides some metadata under each post title:
  • published date, as before but smaller
  • category of the post, so the reader get's an idea what it will be about
  • the post description, as specified in the frontmatter, is printed as
    a synopsis of the post
• Improved pages that list the content for a specified tag or category: the
  taxonomy name is in the title and some post metadata is listed under each
  entry
• More space around each title and subtitle in the posts
• Increased contrast in code highlighting for code snippets
• Code snippets license changed to BSD 3-Clause instead of MIT or Mozilla
  Public License v2.0.

Speedup

• Website logo and contact icons are inline-SVG to avoid extra connections and
  to be sharp on any display (retina and non-retina). They were also optimized
  with Inkscape and compressed with
  Inline SVG Optimizer.
• The link to the CSS file is moved to bottom of <body> to reduce the time to
  show something on the screen and improve the Google PageSpeed rank.
• The fonts required for the website are served from the same domain to improve
  speed (less DNS lookups and better performance if HTTP/2 is used) and reduce
  user tracking
• Highlight.js, the JavaScript file required for code highlighting, is also
  served from the same domain. It's CSS components are incorporated in the same
  unified CSS file for the whole website since they are very small (600 B).
• Added .htaccess file with directives for 404, gzip, connection keep-alive,
  browser cache usage and 301 redirects (to avoid the HTML redirects Hugo does)

Removed

• Embedded TED talk since uses cookies
• Website background from About page

Fixed

• RSS Feed <link> tag contained a wrong attribute
• Reordered and improved Legal notice page
• Singular and plural of the word minute in the reading time subtitle
• Content column is a little bit wider (no more limitation at 90%) so it's more
  readable on portrait smartphones
• Tags and categories names: merged "Life hack" and "Lifehacks" and so on.

This is the first version of my blog made with Hugo so it has a lot of changes
compared to my previous Wordpress-based one. Some changes are in the code (e.g.:
the RSS feed is different), some are in the content (e.g.: the blog has now a
footer).

Added

• Blog structure made with Hugo. The content is imported
  from my previous version of the blog, URLs should mostly be the same.
• Custom theme based on the Hugo Zen theme
  with contact icons from Decode
  theme for Wordpress.
• This Changelog, the Readme and the License of the project.
• A contact page link in the footer
• A legal notice page for the Copyright, Privacy and Disclaimer
• A humans.txt file

Changed

• The home page now lists just the titles of the posts instead of the full
  content for the sake of simplicity and less bandwidth.
• The RSS feed has a new link: http://matjaz.it/index.xml instead of
  http://matjaz.it/feed/.
• The website content I wrote is now under the
  Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.
• The robots.txt file is much simplier.
• Simplified the 404 error page.
• Customized footer content and date format for each post.
• The images in the content have now a title and caption where needed, using
  the <figure> tag thanks to the Hugo shortcode {{< figure >}}

Speedup

• Loaded images are now thumbnails of the full-sized images available when
  clicking on the image
• CSS files are unified into one minified file for faster website loading
• Highlighting CSS and JavaScript are loaded only when a post requires it and
  not on any page, including the home page
• The home page loads only the post titles to make it super fast and simple

Removed

• My second published post
• Some uneccessary images from the
  Standing desk for 8 € tutorial
• All featured images which were kind of needed in Wordpress

Fixed

• Simplified all old content, especially the language and formatting: the
  message of each post stays the same.
