  • I started a blog specifically to make me document these things in a digestable manner. I doubt anyone will ever see it, but it’s for me. It’s a historical record of my projects and the steps and problems experienced when setting them up.

    I’m using 11ty so I can just write markdown notes and publish static HTML using a very simple 11ty template. That takes all the hassle out of wrangling a website and all I have to do is markdown.

    If someone stumbles across it in the slop ridden searchscape, I hope it helps them, but I know it will help me and that’s the goal.


  • I mostly use the discord browser application but I almost never stream or video chat - I switch to the native client the once or twice a year I need that. On my computer the browser app uses about 700MB of RAM (Firefox) and the native uses over 1GB. I’ve been on an optimization kick lately (VSCode->Theia->Helix) so I went looking and found Legcord which used around 500MB and then Discordo that used… 26MB?

    I kind of like Discordo (TUI) but it’s definitely not for everybody and you definitely don’t get video/audio chat.

    Anywho, just wanted to post about alternative clients since I’d recently researched them.

    One of our client support people told an angry client to open a Jira with urgent priority and we’d get right on it.

    … the client support person knew full well that Jira was down too : D

    At least, I think they knew. Either way, not shit we could do about it for that particular region until AWS fixed things.
