So I’ve messed with a lot of site generators / toolkits over the last couple few years and they’ve all been varying degrees of interesting / intriguing / aggravating but so far the only two I’d call fun are #Eleventy and #Statamic.

The main real problem I’m bumping into with Doom Emacs having so many options installed and enabled so easily is that something auto-complete related is locking up my Emacs session but I have no idea what.

@c0debabe I’ve been content with Vivaldi as my default. I definitely feel its kinship with “yeah we got an option for that” Opera back in the old days.

A dozen emails about the new time-tracking procedure, none of which include the URL. Great job on communication, gang.

Love these SSG tutorials that are all “here’s how to set up a blog with 2 posts”

Friend I have 598 date-specific content files and I’m not even the most prolific blogger I know. Your tutorial is a “draw the rest of the fucking owl” monstrosity.

I mean we all gotta get our pedagogical urge out and no shame starting small but keep in mind that two blog posts is barely a drunken weekend.

What I’m saying is if your official SSG documentation talks about setting up a blog and considers itself done when it gets to pagination, all you’re teaching folks is how to use your tools to make future abandoned projects.
