+ <div class="date"> 1st February 2019</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>Yesterday, the Kraken virtual currency exchange announced
+<a href="https://blog.kraken.com/post/2019/websockets-public-api-launching-soon/">their
+Websocket service</a>, providing a stream of exchange updates to its
+clients. Getting updated rates quickly is a good idea, so I used
+their <a href="https://www.kraken.com/en-us/help/websocket-api">API
+documentation</a> and added Websocket support to the Kraken service in
+Valutakrambod today. The python library can now get updates
+from Kraken several times per second, instead of every time the
+information is polled from the REST API.</p>
+
+<p>If this sound interesting to you, the code for valutakrambod is
+available from
+<a href="http://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/valutakrambod">github</a>.
+Here is example output from the example client displaying rates in a
+curses view:</p>

+<p>Yes, I notice the strange negative spread on Hitbtc. I've seen the
+same on Kraken. Another strange observation is that Kraken some times
+announce trade orders a fraction of a second in the future. I really
+wonder what is going on there.</p>

- <div class="date"> 1st November 2018</div>
- <div class="body"><p>As part of my involvement in
-<a href="https://gitlab.com/OsloMet-ABI/nikita-noark5-core">the Nikita
-archive API project</a>, I've been importing a fairly large lump of
-emails into a test instance of the archive to see how well this would
-go. I picked a subset of <a href="https://notmuchmail.org/">my
-notmuch email database</a>, all public emails sent to me via
-@lists.debian.org, giving me a set of around 216 000 emails to import.
-In the process, I had a look at the various attachments included in
-these emails, to figure out what to do with attachments, and noticed
-that one of the most common attachment formats do not have
-<a href="https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml">an
-official MIME type</a> registered with IANA/IETF. The output from
-diff, ie the input for patch, is on the top 10 list of formats
-included in these emails. At the moment people seem to use either
-text/x-patch or text/x-diff, but neither is officially registered. It
-would be better if one official MIME type were registered and used
-everywhere.</p>
-
-<p>To try to get one official MIME type for these files, I've brought
-up the topic on
-<a href="https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/media-types">the
-media-types mailing list</a>. If you are interested in discussion
-which MIME type to use as the official for patch files, or involved in
-making software using a MIME type for patches, perhaps you would like
-to join the discussion?</p>
