Weblogging: Part 1 The one where I blog about blogging (part 1) dbushell.com · dbushell.com [1] Long live RSS! Rss is not dead David, you are right there. I really agree with David that learning a topic well enough to form thoughts and write about it really help learning. You don’t need to be an expert, but forming your own thoughts, putting ideas in words takes a lot more than surface level knowledge. When you try to write or speak about something you quickly realize where your holes in understanding are. Blogging helps me learn. When I commit knowledge to writing it reinforces what I know and shines a spotlight on what I don’t. Most topics require additional research. Even then, I occasionally get things wrong, or miss different ways of thinking, and I welcome corrections. I’ll often update and enrich my posts based on feedback. Without my blog I’d miss other points of view. As they say, the best way to get an answer on the internet is not to pose a question, but to assert the wrong solution! Most feedback I get is constructive. Sometimes it’s blunt but I try not to read into unspoken sentiment. Some people are more direct. If the end result is positive learning, I can ta...

Cotton Coder The one where I launch a new blog dbushell.com · dbushell.com [1] I like Davids idea for cotton coder here, reminds me a lot of Thoughts [2], which turns out to be mroe commonly called a linkblog. I can relate to David heavily on gathering too many side projects and soem collecting more digital dust than you would really like them to. I use thoughts for quick publishing, very similar to David’s notes [3]. I have tags and titles, but the titles are a reflection of the post I’m taking a note on. They are short and sweet, I put just enough thought into them without overthinking them. They live as a separate server hosted website, but the data gets pulled into my blog at build time, so they end up in the same place eventually. Note This post is a thought [2].

GitHub - valkey-io/valkey: A flexible distributed key-value database that is optimized for caching and other realtime workloads. A flexible distributed key-value database that is optimized for caching and other realtime workloads. - valkey-io/valkey GitHub · github.com [1] valkey appears to be the largest open source fork of redis that was forked just before their transition to the new source available licenses.

valkey Python client for Valkey forked from redis-py PyPI · pypi.org [1] python bindings for valkey, forked from redis. one notable difference I see from redis is that you can install with libvalkey to autmatically get faster parsing support. For faster performance, install valkey with libvalkey support, this provides a compiled response parser, and for most cases requires zero code changes. By default, if libvalkey >= 2.3.2 is available, valkey-py will attempt to use it for response parsing. pip install "valkey[libvalkey]" Note This post is a thought [2].

Fragmentions - linking to any text kevinmarks.com [1] I can’t believe I’ve never see this Tim Berners-Lee quote, but I can’t unsee it and will be required to reference it from now on. eventually every URL ends up as a porn site I had a friend let his blog domain expire, within a short period it was scooped up and was hosting porn. I don’t know why, but my best guess is that they were holding it ransom with the most embarrassing content to have your personal site replaced with. Note This post is a thought [2].

I’m building in a [[ fragmentions ]] implementation into my blog, I wanted to add some text before the fragment to indidate that it was the highlighted fragment that someone may have intended to share with you. To get a newline in a :before I need to use \A and white-space: pre-line. body :target::before, body [fragmention]::before { content: "Highlighted Fragment:\A"; white-space: pre-line; @apply font-bold text-yellow-600; } Here is what it looks like on my not yet live implementation of fragmentions.

They are so ingrained into everything. It makes me think about markata.dev. I don’t require you to add any meta data to your post, you don’t need a title at all, but you do have to name a markdown file, and this does end up being your title if you don’t set one. Titles are a lot of pressure! I think there is a reason that the big text-based social networking sites (Mastodon, X, Facebook, Threads, LinkedIn, Bluesky, etc.) don’t have titles. Especially for short posts, the title just isn’t necessary. Just say the thing. Interesting observation what rss readers do without one. My own favorite[rss reader], Feedbin, shows the author of the post as the title if it’s missing. Eh, not great not horrible. Hilariously he puts a title on the OG [2] image for the post. I was interested in seeing what would happen in signal, it appears to be showing the author name as well. [3] Confirmed the pag...

- Damn prime makes an interesting point near then end of this video. He’s seen a bunch of people able to just throw down charts and shit at their company and end up being “the coding guy” cause they proompted something once. In a way I can relate, I got into software in a similar way, but at a time that it took a lot more hard work, understanding , and copy past from the right stack overflow. Based on some of the people around me at the time I can only imagine how some people must feel like they got pushed into it without wanting it, and now are building something they don’t know anything about with no care about it or care to build any expertise. Is the future proompted charts from enterprise chatgpt or do we only continue growing more need for software from here. [1] Note This post is a thought [2].
