what's a good ready-to-deploy headless cms that works with jekyll? ideally it can clone a repo and run "jekyll build" and some custom ssh/scp/rsync/whatever command to publish on edit.

i'm thinking of writing one because i don't know of a good option.

what's the cheapest mobile provider in germany? i'm getting fucked over by o2.

it's amazing to me how many emails i get from startups that assume that by dropping their name i have any idea who they are or what they do or why they exist.

just because i have a login on your site doesn't mean i remember or care who you are. you have to reintroduce yourself in the first paragraph.

redbubble's unsubscribe-from-spamming-me-because-i-bought-a-thing-one-time landing page plays a gif of a unicorn's horn breaking off when you choose the "unsubscribe from all" option.

fuck you, redbubble.

when did newsweek turn right-wing partisan?

youtube now marketing censorship as a feature

does node-pre-gyp (used by sqlite3 to download precompiled binaries) do hash verification?

if i were the nsa/cia and wanted to backdoor infrastructure, i'd have a thing built into s3 (cia is a large aws customer, mind you) that allows me to selectively serve backdoored binaries into node process space via the mapbox-node-binary bucket.

yeah it's the sqlite3 package, when running "node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build".

node-pre-gyp http GET https://mapbox-node-binary.s3.amazonaws.com/sqlite3/v5.0.2/napi-v3-darwin-x64.tar.gz

guess it's downloading the precompiled sqlite3, and not the node binary.

for years, for reasons that have been unclear to me, doing an "npm install sqlite3" or "yarn add sqlite3" (or perhaps sequelize?) fetches a precompiled node binary from an s3 bucket called mapbox-node-binary. mapbox must be paying a small fortune in bandwidth for this bucket.

being able to nope out of the typescript safety zone with 'any' periodically is handy. for some reason i don't have the same readiness to use interface{} in go, even though it's the same thing.

what are some of the best places to buy used books that aren't amazon?

why aren't there nightlies of ungoogled-chromium?

You like boats but not the ocean. You go to a lake in the summer with your family up in the mountains. There's a long wooden dock and a boathouse with boards missing from the roof and a place you used to crawl underneath to be alone. You're a sucker for french poetry and rhinestones. You're very generous. You're kind to strangers and children.

this is totally insane.
