blog's Introduction

Hello, I'm Josh 👋

I love building delightful web experiences and simple tools.

Currently working on a tool to detect suspicious logins 🦙.

I am also writing on 🌍 my website/🪴 digital garden.

Things I've been thinking about lately 🧠 Stories connect people across language and culture 80% of software is boilerplate, we should try to remove that Simplicity is an attribute of deep understanding and wisdom Language changes the way you think Lifting is addictive!

Super cool site to generate Go project boilerplates

Add search

Add exception list for markdown spell check

Currently the spellchecker is bad and say's that "NodeJS" is not a work. Fix that, so the the builds always pass.

“What uncle Alex found objectionable about so many human beings is that they so seldom noticed it when they were happy,” Vonnegut said.

His uncle made a habit of noticing the good times: When Vonnegut and his family would be drinking lemonade under a tree on a summer day, his uncle would suddenly exclaim, “Wait a minute, stop! If this isn’t nice, I don’t know what is!”

Wonderful article. I echo all the sentiments. Most software is drab to use because it’s numerical, or factual. But it doesn’t have to be that way. The web can be whimsical!

Great quote:

Georgia O’Keefe put it this way: "I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me... so I decided to start anew."

Add Goodreads data as notes

Need to add data from Goodreads into a _data/goodreads.yml file. This can be generated from the RSS feed somehow.
Then when there is a new record, or update, it can dynamically create the pages for the books that have been marked as "read"

Add RSS Feed / Fix it

Roll my own twitter

Want to "tweet" to my own website. Don't want to syndicate (for now!)

On the site:

new files created under /kind/notes are then made into pages like blog posts
files have a date as the frontmatter and some content

From my laptop I can create the file manually to create a new "tweet"

From iOS

Run an iOS shortcut to invoke a github action with the content I want to publish
Creates the file and commits it
Rebuild and away!

Add sentry

https://lucasfcosta.com/2022/08/07/how-to-improve-daily-standups.html

Prioritise going through the backlog and adjusting according to any blockers.
Stand ups are not about making sure people are working, they should be focused on getting things done and delivering software to the customer.

Care should be taken to write good error messages. Specifically make them actionable, helpful and clear. Auditing your system can be a monumental task but try to make them easy to find with a global “error” key.

Add new photography page

Can use icloud-shared-album to get the iCloud public album.
But need to be able to download all the image URL's (probably stored in the repo)
Then trigger a rebuild of the site

The bit I'm struggling with at the moment is to grab the URL's in GitHub Actions and download them. Because I want this all automated.

Time is such a basic premise with so much nuance affected by the physical world. Not only is the digital world we create so fragile but also the physical world is so abstract to hide these incredibly complexities

Fix up automated seasonal posts

I have fond memories hacking wine ports of games onto my Mac and installing custom HUD’s for TF2. There’s a lot of people I’ve noticed that don’t understand the concept of a file system.

Improve styling of code blocks

Restrict width, change color to contrast more with the normal text

https://thefullstackdev.net/article/create-beautiful-website-while-sucking-at-design

Useful specific tips for good design:

Use a framework - probably tailwind
Use wicked blocks for prebuilt components
Use Photopea to design any custom graphics

Port to use markdown templates to generate the projects section on homepage

Currently the homepage is hardcoded, change it to use template markdown files and render "project" components so it is easier to update in the future.
Allow to provide a "code", "website", "description" and "title" for each project.

Amazing concept, well executed.

Valuable to look at multiple pages

https://leveragethoughts.substack.com/p/to-become-wise-do-less

Leisure gives the scribe the chance to acquire wisdom; a man with few commitments can grow wise. How can the ploughman become wise, whose sole ambition is to wield the goad, driving his oxen, engrossed in their work, his conversation limited to bullocks, his thoughts absorbed in the furrows he traces and his long evenings spent in fattening heifers?

Sirach 38: 24-26

Web highlights as notes

Take the data from _data/bookmarks.yml to build up pages under /bookmarks/
Kind of like https://www.jvt.me/mf2/2022/07/gfxny/

Then create pages for each /kind/
