AMA with Habr. 1011

Today is not just another last Friday of the month when you ask us your questions - today is the day of the system administrator! Well, that is, a professional holiday for Atlantes, on whose shoulders are held highly loaded systems, complex infrastructures, data center servers and small companies. Therefore, we are waiting for questions, congratulations and urge everyone to go buy or order yummies and congratulate their harsh network catties!



In each such post we post a list of changes that have occurred over the month. This time - the changelog not only of Habr, but of all our projects.

Habr

Desktop Habr:

• We made the choice of the type of publication and language on the page for creating / editing a post more obvious:
  
  
• On the page for creating a publication, a field was added in which you can specify a link to the image, which will be the cover when publishing the link in social networks. On Facebook and VKontakte, you can still choose between all images of the publication. If the cover is not loaded and there are no images in the publication, then you can select the cover that Habr generates.
• Added hotkeys on the post creation page:
  
  - CTRL / ⌘ + E : go to the edit page from the open publication page
  - CTRL / ⌘ + K : insert link;
  - CTRL / ⌘ + B : highlight with bold;
  - CTRL / ⌘ + I : highlight in italics.

Freelance

A freelance deal has appeared on Freelance. Everything works simply - money is debited from the customer before starting work on a special account with a financial partner and transferred to the contractor only after he completes the project. So the customer can be sure that he will receive the finished work, and the contractor - that the project will be paid.

All details can be found on the service page .

Toaster

Just like on a stone twitter in the forest: nothing happened. More precisely, there were small fixes, but they are purely internal.

And yes, by the way, by the way. In Habr’s life, tough PR managers and cute PR managers play a huge role, it is they who force professionals to write in the building. Blogs are cool posts, do not keep the experience in yourself. July 28 is the day of the PR-box. Karoch, for the right connections ... with the public. Traditionally, the publication ends with a list of company employees who can be asked questions:

baragol - chief editor
boomburum - Head of User Relations
buxley - technical director
daleraliyorov - Habr manager
illo - art director
nomad_77 - the main for "Toaster" and "Freelansim"
pas - system administrator
shelsneg - home marketing
soboleva - main customer service

Great weekend to everyone! Do not forget to pay for the Internet.
