| greg-g | what blogging software do all the cool kids use these days? | 02:32 |
|---|---|---|
| cmaloney | Pelican is what I use | 02:40 |
| cmaloney | (http://decafbad.net) | 02:40 |
| cmaloney | it imported my Wordpress instance the best and has markdown support | 02:40 |
| greg-g | cmaloney: looks nice | 02:48 |
| greg-g | ooo, AGPL too :) | 02:54 |
| greg-g | I think I'll mess with this later... | 02:54 |
| greg-g | now it's bed time | 02:54 |
| greg-g | g'night | 02:54 |
| greg-g | ! | 02:54 |
| cmaloney | G'knight! | 03:04 |
| jrwren | greg-g: medium :p | 12:08 |
| cmaloney | jrwren: Why do you hate RSS? | 12:24 |
| greg-g | jrwren: I knew you were going to reply with that ;) | 12:29 |
| jrwren | medium doesn't rss? well ain't that something. | 12:32 |
| jrwren | GOOG told me to hate RSS, so I hate RSS. | 12:32 |
| jrwren | I am merely a product of the companies for which I consume. | 12:32 |
| greg-g | you are the product, indeed :) | 12:33 |
| * greg-g goes down to breakfast before day 2 of hackathon | 12:35 | |
| jrwren | i liked the "for which I consume" bit. I live to service companies, not they live to service me. | 12:35 |
| greg-g | that's an odd perspective given how even pure capitalism is supposed to work | 12:36 |
| greg-g | you like the fuedal system better? ;) | 12:36 |
| * greg-g really goes | 12:36 | |
| jrwren | lmao @ pure capitalism. | 12:37 |
| cmaloney | jrwren: I think Medium does RSS but they really make it difficult to find it | 12:57 |
| cmaloney | that and they hide their posts | 12:57 |
| cmaloney | It makes LiveJoural seem positively open | 12:58 |
| mrgoodcat | greg-g: i think a lot of the cool kids are using ghost | 13:16 |
| mrgoodcat | medium has a dickbar now | 13:16 |
| greg-g | a what bar? | 13:20 |
| greg-g | mrgoodcat: I looked at ghost last night... all of the marketing speak and financial data on their website turned me off | 13:21 |
| greg-g | see, I'm the opposite of jrwren ;) | 13:21 |
| cmaloney | I want my blog to federate 15 ways from sunday | 13:24 |
| cmaloney | I want people to do surprise things with my content | 13:24 |
| jrwren | greg-g: you are the opposite of my sarcastic persona. | 13:35 |
| jrwren | greg-g: IRL any static generator will do. I'm hosting in google cloud storage for free. YAY! | 13:35 |
| cmaloney | heh | 13:35 |
| jrwren | Also good: geocities, Angelfire, and Tripod | 13:37 |
| cmaloney | jrwren: Friendster | 13:37 |
| jrwren | whoa! | 13:38 |
| jrwren | wasn't that more of a social network than a blog host though? like orkut? | 13:40 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, it was one of the first ones | 13:51 |
| cmaloney | But iirc Geocities wasn' a blog as much as just web hosting | 13:52 |
| jrwren | right. you could put anything htere. i wonder if you could put rss, or it if only allowed html/css/js | 13:54 |
| greg-g | oh man, orkut | 14:04 |
| mrgoodcat | greg-g: a dickbar is a persistent bar that takes up part of your screen and you can't make it go away | 14:20 |
| mrgoodcat | mostly on mobile | 14:20 |
| mrgoodcat | https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DCInjeEVoAAKuDO.jpg | 14:21 |
| mrgoodcat | jrwren: i'm hosting in netlify for free. YAY! | 14:23 |
| mrgoodcat | also using a static site generator | 14:23 |
| jrwren | netlify? | 14:24 |
| mrgoodcat | yea its a cdn that specializes in hosting sites using static site generators | 14:24 |
| jrwren | wow, I need more coffee. i'm reading that as net li-fee | 14:24 |
| jrwren | looks cool. | 14:25 |
| mrgoodcat | push to github, automatically built and deployed | 14:25 |
| mrgoodcat | and the free tier even uses LE to generate a free ssl cert | 14:25 |
| jrwren | github.io is good too! | 14:25 |
| mrgoodcat | yes it is | 14:26 |
| mrgoodcat | github.io doesn't support ssl though, which seems sort of silly to me | 14:28 |
| mrgoodcat | basically every major browser has supported SNI for like 5+ years some even as much as 10 | 14:30 |
| mrgoodcat | and iirc, server load difference is negligible on modern hardware | 14:31 |
| jrwren | great point. | 14:38 |
| jrwren | i mean, they do for the *.github.io domains, but not for custom domains | 14:39 |
| jrwren | I don't think S3, azure storage or GCP storage do ssl for custom domain either. | 14:41 |
| mrgoodcat | netlify does :) | 14:41 |
| jrwren | that is cool, and cool that they do it easily and directly. | 14:42 |
| jrwren | s3/azure/gcp all make you work aroudn it somehow. cloudfront, ???, ??? | 14:42 |
| mrgoodcat | cloudfront is a nightmare for personal use | 14:56 |
| mrgoodcat | it is an enterprise first tool | 14:56 |
| mrgoodcat | i have to use it at work | 14:56 |
| mrgoodcat | configuration is incredibly granular, but there is no simple "click here and enable" option | 14:56 |
| mrgoodcat | and you have to upload your own certs and all that garbage unless you use their $$$$ cert generation tool | 14:57 |
| brousch | Limelight has ssl | 15:18 |
| brousch | We're focused on business though, not personal | 15:19 |
| mrgoodcat | is limelight where you work? | 17:15 |
| mrgoodcat | i'm not sure why but i was under the impression you worked for a school system... | 17:15 |
| brousch | I work for limelight | 18:26 |
| cmaloney | living in the limelight... | 18:39 |
| cmaloney | dammit jcastro for not being here to get the earworm. | 18:39 |
| _stink__ | don't worry, i got it | 19:36 |
| _stink__ | so there's one | 19:36 |
| cmaloney | thank you | 21:11 |
