Is it possible to rename the repo from the current "blog"? Some options:

• scikit-learn-blog
• sklearn-blog

The reason:
When I clone the repo, the name is "blog" and it's not that informative, especially in a local folder with multiple blog repo's. What do you think? I don't know if there is a naming convention for blog repo code.

We had discussed setting up a CNAME that the address would be: blog.scikit-learn.org

the markdown says Monthly meetings on the last Friday of the month
If I'm not mistaken, the calendar shows that the meetings are now on the first Monday of the month.
correct to: Monthly meetings on the first Monday of the month

@norbusan
Would you like to add a summary of the recent December 2021 Fujitsu sprint to the events section?

Hello! Thanks for setting up the blog!
Could it be possible to have the calendar in Universal Time?
I personally find easier to remember my difference time with UTC, than with some other specific time zone.

Thanks!

Can we add instructions on how to run the blog locally, in the blog repo.

As an example, I have this for Data Umbrella, that came with the template. Not that I have been unable to get my own blog running locally.
https://github.com/data-umbrella/data-umbrella.github.io#installation

Some instructions on what needs to be installed and getting it running will be helpful for folks.

There are now 11 blogs posted.
I wonder if this template allows "pages" of 10 blogs each.

Formatting tips

Instructions on updating front matter

• New Author layout (ex. https://scikit-learn.org/blog/team/jml-interview/)
• Featured Image
• Cats/Tags

Initially, I had the Data Umbrella blog hosted on GH Pages. There were some issues with the tags, and since Netlify had more options, the developer who created the DU blog template suggested Netlify.

Reference

• DU Blog: https://blog.dataumbrella.org

One of the benefits of Netlify is we can see a preview of the blog before accepting the PR.
Maybe this is also possible with GH Pages, but it needs to be set up?

Something we could explore later.

RE: events

Can we embed our public calendar on the separate page for "Events"?

<iframe src="https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=social.scikitlearn%40gmail.com&ctz=America%2FNew_York" style="border: 0" width="800" height="600" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>

https://web.archive.org/web/20101118052247/http://fseoane.net/blog/2010/scikitslearn-coding-spring-in-paris/

I was wondering if we shouldn't work a little bit our blog design so that it has some common visual elements?

For instance, I had in mind making the top of the scikit-learn blog similar to the main page:

vs

This is jekyll + web design work that does not require specific scikit-learn / datascience expertise. Probably something that we can ask help with.

What do people think?

Introducing a Technical category
http://nicolas-hug.com/blog/gradient_boosting_descent

https://github.com/scikit-learn/blog/blob/main/README.md

To use MathJax we need to include the Javascript that does all the work (MathJax documentation).

If we want to include the script in every page of the blog (note that it may slow down pages without LaTeX, I don't know how much though), we can edit the file blog/_includes/head/custom.html adding:

<script type="text/javascript" id="MathJax-script" async
  src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax@3/es5/tex-mml-chtml.js">
</script>

This will load an specific version of MathJax. There are other urls we can use to load the latest version but we'll need to check the documentation.
Also, MathJax can be configured in different ways, but I think with the defaults we'll be OK.

Originally posted by @jmloyola in #70 (comment)

#70 (comment)

Looking at the PR (should have done that earlier) everything looks OK here.
The script for MathJax is loaded only when needed (using page.usemathjax).
Maybe the math formulas were not rendering because of the URL to the MathJax script.
Or maybe the place where the URL was inserted was not correct (_includes/masthead.html).
I'm not sure. We'll need to debug this to find out.

I know you already solved this, but if you start seeing loading delays in pages without math it might be related to always loading the MathJax script.
In that case, we have to do something similar to what this PR did.

Any idea why the numbering isn't working with the questions?
Should I hardcode the numbers in?
https://scikit-learn.org/blog/team/chiara-interview/

For my Jekyll blog template, there was a default option to show "reading time" in minutes.
Wonder if this is possible to add here?

Example:
https://reshamas.github.io

As discussed in a developer's meeting, we decided to move the example available here as a blog post.

This issue is intended to keep track of the subject.

Would be nice to have a page on the blog that lists and links to each of past meeting minutes for easy access and reference.

Link to meeting minutes:
https://github.com/scikit-learn/administrative/tree/master/meeting_notes

Going to https://blog.scikit-learn.org/ gives a certificate warning, not sure who created the HTTPS certificate originally (looks like it was created with Let's Encrypt).

Looks like the certificate was created with a validity of 3 months and has recently expired:

Note as a work-around that http://blog.scikit-learn.org/ does work.

Is it possible to add the scikit-learn twitter feed to a Jekyll blog?

I moved the contributing to the blog instructions into its own file, as that is common practice.
However, the TOC links at top are broken.
https://github.com/scikit-learn/blog/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md

I'm not sure how to update them. I followed similar practice to README.md, but that's not working.

@laurburke Any guidance would be appreciated.

3 year grant to fund maintenance of NumPy, SciPy, Pandas, and Scikit-learn, with a line item focused on sharing CI expertise between projects. At a high level, on the scikit-learn side:

1. Maintenance: Triaging & Code Review, etc.

3. Improve Pandas interoperability

When I preview my post in VSCode, I can see the header image.

But, as you see here, it's not rendering. Any idea why?

@jjerphan
So we can have a couple of real posts on the scikit-learn blog, would you like to cross-post your blog from December?
https://jjerphan.xyz/pairwise-distances-reductions.html

Would be very convenient to have an icon on blog home page for "blog source code" to direct users to.

Large size images are slowing down the time to load the webpages.
This does impact certain regions more than others.

Write a script to reduce the size of images.

Requests

• Request: show earlier posts to viewers
  • We currently have Category, Tag and Year archives. If you have suggestions of an alternative way to display earlier posts, please comment and provide a reference link if available.
• Request: display the number of posts
  • Where should we display blog statistics?
  • Number of posts by category/tag/year? Total number?
    • The Category, Tag and Year archive pages have the number of posts.
• Request: display posts' featured image in recent/archived posts queue
• Do we want comments?
  • How would we deal with moderation?

Instructions for posting the interview:

• copy one of the previous ones, such as: https://github.com/scikit-learn/blog/blob/main/_posts/2022-05-22-norbert-interview.md
• For authors, let's put "Reshama Shaikh, Meekail Zain"
• In top line, can include "Posted by xxx"
• I have highlighted some text in blue, which we do want highlighted in the blog.
  Here is an example of code to highlight:

>*<span style="background-color: #CAE9F5;">
What is the effectiveness of sprint models and what is the long-term engagement as a result of these sprints?
</span>*

Reminders:

• let's check that the words in italics get copied over
• we'll need to create a social media card

Unfortunately, we don't have Netlify set up for this, so we may need to make updates after the blog PR is accepted.

I think it would be good to move the templates over into their own folder for users to reference.
That will clean up the look of current blog now.

Given what Hugging Face can bring to the scikit-learn users through skops for instance:
- The ability to push scikit-learn models on the Hugging Face Hub
- The possibility to try out models directly in the browser
- The automatic creation of model cards, to improve model documentation and understanding
- The ability to collaborate with others on machine learning projects

Given their open source DNA and what they do for the library like hiring core devs and contributors, sponsoring the INRIA consortium and more, I suggest we either publish or cross post this blog post:
https://scikit-learn.fondation-inria.fr/scikit-learn-and-hugging-face-join-forces/

I will be happy to read you and make a PR
