[02:32] <greg-g> what blogging software do all the cool kids use these days?
[02:40] <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
[02:48] <greg-g> cmaloney: looks nice
[02:54] <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> !
[03:04] <cmaloney> G'knight!
[12:08] <jrwren> greg-g: medium :p
[12:24] <cmaloney> jrwren: Why do you hate RSS?
[12:29] <greg-g> jrwren: I knew you were going to reply with that ;)
[12:32] <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.
[12:33] <greg-g> you are the product, indeed :)
[12:35]  * 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.
[12:36] <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
[12:37] <jrwren> lmao @ pure capitalism.
[12:57] <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
[12:58] <cmaloney> It makes LiveJoural seem positively open
[13:16] <mrgoodcat> greg-g: i think a lot of the cool kids are using ghost
[13:16] <mrgoodcat> medium has a dickbar now
[13:20] <greg-g> a what bar?
[13:21] <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 ;)
[13:24] <cmaloney> I want my blog to federate 15 ways from sunday
[13:24] <cmaloney> I want people to do surprise things with my content
[13:35] <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
[13:37] <jrwren> Also good: geocities, Angelfire, and Tripod
[13:37] <cmaloney> jrwren: Friendster
[13:38] <jrwren> whoa!
[13:40] <jrwren> wasn't that more of a social network than a blog host though? like orkut?
[13:51] <cmaloney> Yeah, it was one of the first ones
[13:52] <cmaloney> But iirc Geocities wasn' a blog as much as just web hosting
[13:54] <jrwren> right. you could put anything htere. i wonder if you could put rss, or it if only allowed html/css/js
[14:04] <greg-g> oh man, orkut
[14:20] <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
[14:21] <mrgoodcat> https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DCInjeEVoAAKuDO.jpg
[14:23] <mrgoodcat> jrwren: i'm hosting in netlify for free. YAY!
[14:23] <mrgoodcat> also using a static site generator
[14:24] <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
[14:25] <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!
[14:26] <mrgoodcat> yes it is
[14:28] <mrgoodcat> github.io doesn't support ssl though, which seems sort of silly to me
[14:30] <mrgoodcat> basically every major browser has supported SNI for like 5+ years some even as much as 10
[14:31] <mrgoodcat> and iirc, server load difference is negligible on modern hardware
[14:38] <jrwren> great point.
[14:39] <jrwren> i mean, they do for the *.github.io domains, but not for custom domains
[14:41] <jrwren> I don't think S3, azure storage or GCP storage do ssl for custom domain either.
[14:41] <mrgoodcat> netlify does :)
[14:42] <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, ???, ???
[14:56] <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
[14:57] <mrgoodcat> and you have to upload your own certs and all that garbage unless you use their $$$$ cert generation tool
[15:18] <brousch> Limelight has ssl
[15:19] <brousch> We're focused on business though, not personal
[17:15] <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...
[18:26] <brousch> I work for limelight
[18:39] <cmaloney> living in the limelight...
[18:39] <cmaloney> dammit jcastro for not being here to get the earworm.
[19:36] <_stink__> don't worry, i got it
[19:36] <_stink__> so there's one
[21:11] <cmaloney> thank you
