  • Looking at BMC/Homepage and tinkering with my .well-known
    • I already have a #Webfinger document from earlier experiments with using my email address as account login for #remotestorage, delegated to 5apps
    • Found this neat hack, just add a redirect to your site! Alias your Mastodon account to your own domain with Netlify Redirect
    • I can do this as well with IPFS/Redirects
    • Note: you’ll need to add _redirects to your includes command in your #Jekyll config.yml for it to pass through this file, as well as the .well-known folder
    • include: ['.well-known', '_redirects']
  • Adding to the BMC/Homepage collapsed:: true
    • Colophon tweaks https://bmannconsulting.com/notes/colophon/
    • Made an #IPFS note https://bmannconsulting.com/notes/ipfs/
    • Trying to get the RSS feed fixed, since it’s not validating right now. This #Jekyll fees repo is what I used as a base, need to double check it https://github.com/georgemandis/jekyll-rss-feeds/blob/master/feed.xml
    • OK, my RSS feed validates now
    • TODO Actually get BMC/Homepage last_modified_at working - it just shows the latest build date #BMC/Backlog
  • Just discovered that my #Jekyll build system just sort of melted down? collapsed:: true
    • Two different ruby versions being mention?
    • Apparently I installed rbenv but had forgotten that I installed chruby
    • Install Ruby with Chruby #Ruby
      • The same set of guides has Homebrew only instructions for installing Ruby — but I do need separate versions
    • Yes, this was an extremely #latenight / early morning

    • Email is not a tool for thought.

    • activitpublink:: https://hachyderm.io/@allafarce/110822862473777278
    • Realized in reading this that I no longer had this classic phrase anywhere online:
    • Email is where knowledge goes to die, Bill French id:: 64caf7f2-3f1d-4969-95f1-6f406d9033f6
      • The link goes to Bill French post on LinkedIn Jan 28th, 2020 , actually in reference to using the Superhuman email client
      • There’s a fun tidbit at the end:
        • 74 trillion email messages were sent last year. That’s about 500 million since you started reading this article. Even if a small fraction contains important nuggets of smartness, that’s a lot of good knowledge heading to the grave.
