Listing journal entries and posts, with description if provided, else styled content summary.

That’s progress for sure.

The very dull bits — making sure the right kinds of pages show up in the right RSS file — and I’m still at it?

This experiment may see daylight.

@tek @freakazoid Long time ago on a trip to Canada talking with some Canadians who were trying to be nice (of course) about our health care system and my partner rebutted “it’s really sweet of you to call it a system.”

@tek @freakazoid I think this was a week after my partner, having recently been diagnosed with latent TB, caught her primary care physician looking up her condition on wikipedia.

Holy cow. I was able to schedule my doctor’s appointment only one week out. It had been more like 1-3 months.

@devrandom @thegibson I am more familiar with this particular combo of trauma and triumph than I care to admit.

really disappointed by how many URLs point to Chrome applications instead of Web sites.

@tek @jalefkowit@octodon.social We’re swimming in it. I mean, a few decades of “Web scale” and similar hype in every industry media venue, and our ideas of “interesting” end up neatly overlapping “makes evil more efficient.”

@meredith oh heck even by 1999/2000 it seemed so daunting as to be unreasonable. Wouldn’t imagine trying to catalog the whole thing now. I’m thinking more human or group curated collections of links worth remembering. Some just a bookmarks page, some over the top folks like me dumping all their notes online.

hackers.town: 2024-04-02 Tue 06:12

@WuMargaret No it’s pretty common. I’ve been fiddling with file formats and simpler layouts, and if I get consistent good results I’ll let the world know!

@cordelya @anders I haven’t messed with internationalization in Eleventy but I know it’s capable.

Maybe start at Internationalization with Eleventy 2.0 and Netlify, which I found via The 11ty Bundle

hackers.town: 2024-03-31 Sun 05:43

@anders @cordelya that sounds like two sites that might share templates or other resources.

I’d probably do it monorepo style, with site-en/ and site-sv/ configured to share common resources at site-common/ or similar.

Building a transitional site on the fly in Hugo. Delete whatever I have. Copy my site template. Export public pages from Logseq. Grab any missing pages from the original site sources. Run Hugo.

Now that I’ve got my code smart enough to identify paths that come from Logseq and paths that come from old sources, I can phase out the transitional site part and do all my damage in the contents/ of an otherwise stable site structure.

MTV special on young adults still living with their parents, coming of age in a recession, living in the boomer shadow, getting too much screen time.

Highlights include a persistent watermark, copyrighted music snippets that have not yet been muted by copyright strikes, and a neoliberal funk rock band.
