Neptune by Hashnode



 It's a blogging platform -- As you know (Well, as you know now), I have been looking for places to export all of this to another platform, one with SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and modern editing capabilities that is actually maintained by its owners. Check it out here on Product Hunt.

You use Markdown to write; As someone who is used to the highlighter and change stylistic appearances way of things, it's a bit of a change. I'm not sure I've used markdown more than 4 or 5 times in my career -- 8 times in my life.

Grammarly is built in;

Technically, they're right.


Similarly to Notion, we can type "/" for commands to appear.

I can't format text the way I like to.


The image may not show up on the final product as I used the hyperlink of the image hosted here.


Ideally, this text 'new and SEO improved!' would be directly under the image and smaller, as a caption. Notion can do that. 


One thing Notion cannot do that Neptune can (or will be able to, as of this writing, it's in alpha preview) -- Is generating outilnes and summaries of your article with AI;


I have seen a program that can do something similar (And I don't recall the name) -- So I see this as a tool, not a replacement. I still have to do the research, write it, and make it understandable to you!

 

 

There's an 'Insert HTML' button, and I'm not sure what's wrong; The ⅰ bubble does not work yet.

This is what happens after I hit preview.

I love the variety of embeds they have!




What are they? Well, a gist is a code snippet. The rest? We'll find out!

How do you use the SEO options? When you get ready to publish, scroll down this pop-up pane;



I think it's a very good start! The built in SEO and ability to connect to a domain for free are great. While I can't style some parts of my post as I'd like (Mainly centering text), that's a very minor complaint. The AI parts have potential.

Neptune seems very based upon being a platform for programmers; There's an option to hide posts from the Hashnode Community and post it on your blog only. I Don't know how the SEO will work in that case, but SEO is based on the wider web and searching through engines, so I don't imagine it will affect your ranks adversely.

Connecting IoT Devices to a Registration Server (Packet Tracer, Cisco)

 If you're seeing this post, I'm helping you, and you probably have LI presence: React and share this post to help me in return.   In Packet Tracer, a demo software made by Cisco Systems. It certainly has changed a lot since 2016. It's almost an Olympic feat to even get started with it now, but it does look snazzy. This is for the new CCNA, that integrates, among other things, IoT and Automation, which I've worked on here before. Instructions here . I don't know if this is an aspect of "Let's make sure people are paying attention and not simply following blindly", or an oversight - The instructions indicate a Meraki Server, when a regular one is the working option here. I have to enable the IoT service on this server. Also, we assign the server an IPv4 address from a DHCP pool instead of giving it a static one. For something that handles our IoT business, perhaps that's safer; Getting a new IPv4 address every week or so is a minimal step against an...

Create a Simple Network (Packet Tracer) + A Walkthrough

Again; I've done this, but now there's so many new things, I'm doing it again. The truly new portions were...everything on the right side of this diagram; The cloud needed a coax connector and a copper Ethernet connector. It's all easy to install, turn off the cloud (Weird), install the modules. Getting the Cable section of Connections was an unusual struggle - The other drop down menu had nothing within. It required going into the Ethernet options and setting the Provider Network to 'cable', which is the next step AFTER the drop-downs. The rest was typical DHCP and DNS setups, mainly on the Cisco server down there. The post is rather short - How about adding a video to it? Find out what A Record means - This site says 'Maps a name to an IP address', which is DNS. So it's another name for DNS? You can change them (presumably in a local context) to associate an IP address to another name.

Review: Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 True Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds

  Ah yes, almost 3 years ago, I wrote this review (Despite getting the earbuds for Christmas, I wanted to use them for a few months before writing). And in December of 2023, the right one began to get dull regarding sound. I always make sure they're clean - Ear infections are no joke, clean your earbuds - so that wasn't it, I never got the verification code from Samsung to make an account for them to be repaired, and Samsung Support through chat told me to go to my local approved dealer, a random shop 50 miles away that wouldn't actually give me an estimate. I'd much rather repair than replace, especially if it's a gift. I'll open (or attempt to) the faulty one and look around and still use the other one. So here, let's get some new ones on sale, using a combination of giftcards and luck. I was torn between the colors, but I have, more than once, misplaced the black case and was unable to discern it because...most of my stuff is black. I need a case for thi...
