<p>How I write and build this site. A personal style guide.</p>
<h2 id="tone-of-voice">Tone of Voice <a href="#tone-of-voice" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p><strong>Casually self-deprecating with technical credibility.</strong></p>
<p>I write like I’m talking to someone at a conference after-party, not a LinkedIn profile. It’s okay to poke fun at myself and my projects. “Under-funded, over-dreamed, barely documented” is a feature, not a bug.</p>
<p><strong>Principles:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Use first person (“I”, “me”, “my”)</li>
<li>Keep sentences punchy and direct</li>
<li>Include real personal details and hobbies</li>
<li>Show technical expertise without taking myself too seriously</li>
<li>It’s okay to mention frustrations with mainstream tools</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="writing-rules">Writing Rules <a href="#writing-rules" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p><strong>Formatting:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>No em-dashes. Use periods or commas instead</li>
<li>No emoji</li>
<li>80 character hard wrap</li>
<li>Double space between sentences</li>
<li>Headers should be concise (2-4 words)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Structure:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Put code examples front and center</li>
<li>Add brief context or “why this matters” even if just one sentence</li>
<li>It’s okay to say “I use this when…” or “This saved me from…”</li>
<li>Personal anecdotes add authenticity</li>
<li>Technical terms are fine, but explain the “why” behind choices</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Content Types:</strong></p>

<h2 id="code-style">Code Style <a href="#code-style" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p><strong>Python:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Use <code>uv</code> for package management</li>
<li>Type hints required: <code>from typing import TYPE_CHECKING, List, Optional</code></li>
<li>Pydantic models for configuration</li>
<li>f-strings over concatenation</li>
<li>Proper exception handling</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Bash:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><code>set -euxo pipefail</code> in scripts</li>
<li>Use <code>just</code> for task management</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Naming:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Functions: snake_case</li>
<li>Classes: PascalCase</li>
<li>Python files: snake_case</li>
<li>Content files: kebab-case</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="site-architecture">Site Architecture <a href="#site-architecture" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p><strong>Stack:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Markata (custom Python static site generator)</li>
<li>Tailwind CSS v4+ with pnpm</li>
<li>Jinja2 templating</li>
<li>Markdown with YAML frontmatter</li>
<li>Kubernetes hosting (basement cluster)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Directories:</strong></p>

<h2 id="content-philosophy">Content Philosophy <a href="#content-philosophy" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p><strong>DIY Ethic:</strong></p>
<p>I emphasize building and maintaining things myself. This site runs on a Kubernetes cluster in my basement because “I love DevOps” like maintaining your own bare-metal cluster just to host a static site.</p>
<p><strong>Authenticity:</strong></p>
<p>I create this blog with one person in mind: me. If it helps others, great. But I’m writing to document what I learn and think, not to build an audience or optimize for engagement.</p>
<p><strong>Learn in Public:</strong></p>
<p>Share failures, unfinished projects, and half-baked ideas. The TIL format works because it captures learning in the moment, not after I’ve mastered something.</p>
<h2 id="what-i-avoid">What I Avoid <a href="#what-i-avoid" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>“Just”</strong> - The word skips invisible complexity</li>
<li><strong>Pretending to know everything</strong> - I’ll say when I’m confused</li>
<li><strong>Overly complex solutions</strong> - Prefer systems I can understand and fix</li>
<li><strong>Performance for likes</strong> - Not optimizing for engagement metrics</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="b64">b64 <a href="#b64" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p>Today i spent some time on <a href="b64.wayl.one">b64</a>, it is a base64 decoder/encoder.
Just start tying to enter text, or paste, escape to deselect the text box, d to
decode, e to encode, ? for help. It took a bit to get all of the keymaps right
with the differnt modes and make sure that for instance you don’t keep typing
in the input box while in help mode, or decode/encode while in the input box.</p>

Williams</a>), but is within the
ethos and deserves a mention here. Its a single page calendar that is a static
site completely rendered on the front end, data is stored in the url as you
interact with it. None of your data goes to a server.</p>

<h2 id="qrcode">qrcode <a href="#qrcode" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p>Today I wanted to finish an article that I was on afk and It killed me to get
it from my work computer to my phone, so I made a qrcode generator. Paste in
or type in your message and it shows up as a qr code live. This one needed an
event listener for window resize since the library creates a rigid canvas qr
code that does not fit on the screen once you create it then resize the window.</p>

<p>Taking another look at the error it was obvious what was going on, thoughts
never had a file extension and Pathlib was throwing isADirecotryError because
the path was already a directory for the index.<a href="/html/" class="glossary-term" title="HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard markup language used to create and design documents on the World Wide Web. It structures web content by...">html</a>, adding a .md to the path
for the thoughts plugin fixed it.</p>

<p>2017 was the year of getting started, I was coming up on 5 years into my
career, and layoffs were happening hard at the time. I remember fist landing 5
years before and being told in the companies long history they have never laid
off engineers, it was a very safe place to be. This was a wake up call that it
might all turn around and I would take nothing with me. Blogging became my way
to document things I was learning, it was making be better at communicating,
and giving me a reason to take a deeper dive into interesting topics.</p>

<p>I really like this idea of keeping a set up contacts in a markdown repo, and being able to wikilink them to different tickets / meetings and what not. I’m imagining the graph you can build, it feels quite interesting. Even more relevant as we see things like teams rolling out retention limits to messages.</p>
<p>Here is Cassidy’s format, I like it but I’m probably not going to track the birthday of most people I work with, thats just not the relationship I tend to have with work friends. It might be a midwest or non tech thing, but I am not even aware if any of my co-workers have social media, and I assume that if they did it would not include anything work related but more football and other sports.</p>

time I thought it might have just been me, but then i heard it from Dave Rupert
on Shop Talk show, and it made sense. LLMs and AI is slowly killing the
internet as we know it.</p>
<h2 id="my-metrics">My metrics <a href="#my-metrics" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p>I dug into my emails from the google search console team and found two results
nearly one year apart. Impressions are only 60% of its value a year ago while
clicks are only 35% of where they were a year ago. I’m getting less
impressions and even less clicks.</p>

<h2 id="suspicions">Suspicions <a href="#suspicions" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p>What I think is happening is a large portion of users are getting their answers
from ChatGPT, Copilot, and llms like this. A lot of my posts have been filling
gaps in the internet, notes for myself when I struggle to integrate x in y
because there was a gap of how to do so in the docs and stack overflow. Some
small fraction of users have moved on to duck duck go and other non global
warming search engines with AI in their results.</p>
<p>Clicks are down even further, than impressions. I can’t tell for sure but my
gut feeling is that people are using the AI generated results. I know I use
them quite often, but listening to Justin and Autumn at the end of the latest
ship it podcast <a href="https://changelog.com/shipit/115" style="--favicon-url: url('/assets/markata/link-avatars/changelog.com.ico');" data-favicon="/assets/markata/link-avatars/changelog.com.ico" class="has-avatar has-avatar-before">https://changelog.com/shipit/115</a>, they both claim that they get
no benefits from it and don’t know anyone who does. In fact Justin has taken
the most ethical approach to move to duck duck go since it doesn’t kill the
earth with each search by injecting AI results. Personally I do find it quite
helpful, sometimes the answer is there, or an idea that triggers me to think of
the idea.</p>

<p>Just as always blogging has been for me. It’s a great place to write down your
thoughts for later reference, and to help cement them into your brain. Beyond
getting famous and clicks blogging is useful to you first and foremost, that
should be the number one reason.</p>

<p>RSS feed readers is a great way to keep creators that you like and want to
support in your feed regardless of what the higher powers of search and social
media think of them. This year I built my own [[reader]], and I use it every
single day to read articles out of my own custom curated feed.</p>

good posts. I have a crome extension that allows me to create a blog post tied

big industry downturn in 2016 that left me scared for what would happen if I
were laid off. The company I was working for at the time did it’s first major
downsizing in history sending many really good engineers out to look for new
opportunities in a world flooded with many in the same situation. This was

his results end up in my google search quite often.</p>
<p>I’ve made many posts on this site in the TIL format. I don’t strictly stick to
a schedule or a character length quite like Josh Does, but generally they are
short, sweet, single ideas.</p>

<p>Throughout this process I have become a proponent of owning your own content on
the internet. If you own the domain, the content, and host it yourself you
control when it gets published, deleted, and updated. No one can take this
away from you execept for you. It’s a very powerful tool that I highly
recommend everyone to use. You can get your own domain for $12/year or less,
and that is all you need to pay.</p>

hope that I give the people helping me out along the way just a little bit of a

<p>Since this blog is mostly a tech blog about software development, and my
journey as I learn, lets talk tech.</p>
<ul>
<li>python</li>
<li><a href="/fastapi/" class="glossary-term" title="FastAPI is a modern and efficient web framework for Python, built on top of the Starlette web framework, and pydantic for data validation and serialization.">fastapi</a></li>

</ul>
<h3 id="fastapi">fastapi <a href="#fastapi" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h3>
<p>The core of the site is a python web server running fastapi. Most of the
endpoints return <a href="/html/" class="glossary-term" title="HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard markup language used to create and design documents on the World Wide Web. It structures web content by...">html</a> via jinja templates to the browser and json to anything
else. So you go to the list of posts at
[https://thoughts.waylonwalker.com/posts/waylonwalker/?page_size=9999999999 in](<a href="https://thoughts.waylonwalker.com/posts/waylonwalker/?page_size=9999999999" style="--favicon-url: url('/assets/markata/link-avatars/thoughts.waylonwalker.com.ico');" data-favicon="/assets/markata/link-avatars/thoughts.waylonwalker.com.ico" class="has-avatar has-avatar-before">https://thoughts.waylonwalker.com/posts/waylonwalker/?page_size=9999999999</a> in){.hoverlink}
a web browser it will be a rendered feed, but from curl you will get json.</p>
<h3 id="htmx">htmx <a href="#htmx" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h3>
<p>The main page is an infite scrolling feed of the posts. All loaded in with
htmx. Which just works so beautifully for this. I really like python its my
jam, I can make endpoints that return things out of a database very effectively
with it, but it takes me some time to do the js side, htmx just makes these
common patterns available right in html.</p>
<h3 id="sqlite">sqlite <a href="#sqlite" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h3>
<p>The data storage is a sqlite database using the sqlmodel orm. This was my very
first time using sqlmodel, which is an ORM built on top of pydantic. It works
really well with fastapi. The only thing that it lacks is the same history,
community, and stack overflow posts that sqlalchemy has.</p>
<h3 id="docker">docker <a href="#docker" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h3>
<p>Docker is my go to way for containerizing web applications. I know it really
well and makes it easy to build and deploy on a number of platforms.</p>
<h3 id="httpsflyio"><a href="https://fly.io" style="--favicon-url: url('/assets/markata/link-avatars/fly.io.png');" data-favicon="/assets/markata/link-avatars/fly.io.png" class="has-avatar has-avatar-before">https://fly.io</a> <a href="#httpsflyio" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h3>
<p>I have this running on <a href="https://fly.io" style="--favicon-url: url('/assets/markata/link-avatars/fly.io.png');" data-favicon="/assets/markata/link-avatars/fly.io.png" class="has-avatar has-avatar-before">https://fly.io</a>. Its my first real production application

gives me tools to scale, and ssh right into the running container. It’s still
free for the time being, but goes up quick for my cheap taste if I were to
scale it up much.</p>
<p>Id highly recomend it if you have a server that you want to get running on the
public internet, and you don’t want to manage any of your own infrastructure.</p>

<p>Everything installed on my machines is done through ansible-playbooks. It’s

distribution does not really matter too much, I’m more interested in what’s
inside.</p>
<h2 id="window-manager">Window Manager <a href="#window-manager" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p>I use awesome wm. Awesome is a tiling window manager that alows me to navigate
through 9 workspaces (technically called tags in awesomewm). I can script out
certain applications to open in a certain tag, move it to different tags, and
join tags super easy. I really dont see myself going back to a floating window
manager where you have to place all your windows with the mouse by hand. This
is probably one of the biggest selling points for me to move to a Linux
desktop.</p>

<p>For the longest time I just used
<a href="https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-terminal/stable/">gnome-terminal</a>. It
works, for the most part it gets out of the way and lets me do what I want. I
just want a terminal that runs tmux properly, runs without titltbars or
scrollbars, and lets me theme it without much effort.</p>
<h3 id="kitty">kitty <a href="#kitty" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h3>
<p><a href="https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/">Kitty</a> is my main terminal, these days, it’s
nice, its easy to configure how I want it, but most of its fancier features do
not work inside of tmux. It does render incredibly fast, If I accidently cat
out a massive file, it typically just handles it, compared to other terminals
that will be printing for 30s or so.</p>
<h3 id="windows-terminal">Windows Terminal <a href="#windows-terminal" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h3>
<p>When I am on a windows terminal I use the <em>new</em>

over any other terminal that I have ever tired on windows. Text looks good,
the built in themese look good, I use the One-Half-Dark Theme, and the built in
Cascadia Code font. Also things like system clipboards, copy, and paste just
seem to work better, and integrate well with wsl.</p>

<p>Husband, dad of two, and hobbyist builder of things on the internet.</p>
<p>When I’m not wrangling data pipeline platforms or building web platforms,
you’ll find me <a href="/tags/gaming/" class="wikilink" data-title="Posts tagged: gaming" data-description="All posts with the tag "gaming"" data-preview="All posts with the tag "gaming"">gaming</a> with my kids, making art, or skating
around the neighborhood. Reliving my mechanical engineering days with my 3d
printer. Winding down at the end of the day binge-watching Big Bang Theory
with my wife.</p>
<h2 id="what-i-do">What I Do <a href="#what-i-do" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p>I’m a Senior Software Engineer who specializes in data pipelines and
Python-based web platforms. I help teams turn messy data into reliable systems
that actually work.</p>
<h2 id="why-i-built-this-site">Why I Built This Site <a href="#why-i-built-this-site" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p><em>from scratch</em></p>
<p>I got tired of:</p>
<ul>
<li>Build times that took forever</li>
<li>Node modules folders that became black holes</li>
<li>Bloated pages that took ages to load</li>
<li>SEO tools that felt like an afterthought</li>
</ul>
<p>So I built my own platform from scratch using <strong>pluggy</strong> and <strong>diskcache</strong>.
It’s under-funded, over-dreamed, barely documented, and I love it. This site is
my sandbox for learning, teaching, and sharing ideas on my own terms.</p>
<h2 id="infrastructure">Infrastructure <a href="#infrastructure" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p>Because apparently I don’t have enough hobbies, I also run this site from a

<p>My first attempt was to make my own transformer for <code>gatsby-remark-embedder</code>. I previously set this up on my site for Twitter and YouTube. I tried to get some custom transformers going, to do what I wanted for my own website, but failed. I really struggled to understand what data was coming in and out of the transformer. My lack of js/node debugging skills was really showing.</p>

<h2 id="redirects">Redirects <a href="#redirects" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p>It also works with redirects. I have a redirect to my “latest” post. It’s something that I don’t do the best job at keeping up to date, but when I feel really proud of a post I make it the latest.</p>

<h2 id="client-side">Client Side <a href="#client-side" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p>I started out by running this card expansion client side. This was the strategy that I used to find the list of elements that should be transformed.</p>
<ul>
<li>get all anchors</li>
<li>get all paragraphs</li>
<li>filter paragraphs where the content is one of the links</li>
<li>filter paragraphs where there is only one element in the paragraph</li>
<li>filter to paragraphs with links that <code>shouldTransform</code></li>
<li>These elements should have the <code>oneLineLinkCard</code> applied.</li>
</ul>

<p>CSS is not my strong suit, but I can generally hammer something into a shape that I am happy with. For this one, I did struggle a bit with how it looked on various screens, particularly because I was holding the cover image size to a hard 300px. I ended up with more media queries than I needed, but it works.</p>

<p>I’m sure that all of this can be better, my js skills are still forming. It’s quite humbling to see how hard it is to think in an unfamiliar language. The following <code>oneLineLineCard</code> renders a string template literal from a paragraph with a single anchor to a card that contains some of that pages meta information. The
getDescription` function uses a fetch to get the metadata right from the content of the page.</p>

<p>And it works. Whenever I reference my own blog with just a single link on a line in markdown I get a nice card link out to the other post, with a small image sized for the card, the title, and the description of the post.</p>
<h2 id="but">But <a href="#but" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<ul>
<li>too much client-side</li>
<li>does not work well with cross-posting</li>
</ul>
<p>For every link I do this with the client will pull the full page just to get a bit of metadata. I am already doing a bit more than I want to do client-side for a blog, so I would prefer to do it ahead of time.</p>
<p>Additionally, since it is done client-side it does not translate well when I copy my markdown to various other blogging platforms. If it were rendered right into the markdown cross-posting would be much easier.</p>
<h2 id="future-state">Future State <a href="#future-state" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p><em>actually already implemented at this point</em></p>
<p>The direction I am going to try is to use python to load each post, look for lines that contain only a link, then render this same markup right in the markdown. For this I am going to use a language I am more familiar with, python, and do this inside of GitHub actions just before build time so that the markdown I write stays the same, the cards will only be rendered in prod.</p>
<h2 id="why-python-">Why Python 🐍 <a href="#why-python-" class="heading-anchor">#</a></h2>
<p>Python is my every day what I know, I work much more efficiently and cleanly with it. Also the more I blog the more abstractions I am seeing and the lazier I am getting. Things like description, SEO, cover images are all getting automated. Gatsby really doesn’t like to run when some of those things are missing, probably due to my lack of JS error handling skills. I find it much easier to load up all the pages and patch up the frontmatter in python before
build time.</p>
<p>I am kinda curious if eventually, I can re-create everything I need in python because I am honestly not using react for much more than a glorified templating system, besides search. If I can pre-render everything in python</p>

<p>description:
Waylon Walker is a Senior Software Engineer who specializes in data pipelines
and Python-based web platforms. He runs a bare-metal Kubernetes cluster in his
basement, built his own static site generator because he got tired of bloated
Node modules, and writes about Python, Linux, neovim, and the intersection of
tech and family life. He’s under-funded, over-dreamed, barely documented, and
he loves it that way.</p>
