I tried Eleventy for building a simple product website and really liked it. Not quite sure about the future with the acquisition/rebranding.

When a web app fails I sometimes check if it's a chrome app. Yours seems one.
Just kidding. Check it out on Firefox and look at Inspector console.

Quadlets looked super interesting when I stumbled upon it. However it still felt too much for my "few go binaries thrown on a server" setup. I ended up going with Ansible to set things up (and of course I use systemd).

> My jokes aren't funny and are actively confusing.
I used to write technical documents in prose style, sometimes with meandering stories. I guess I picked it up from my early blogging days. I realized I hated reading some of them back. So I tried to keep it cut and dried. I do sometimes sprinkle a bit of colorful wording just to add a bit of humanity but only if it doesn't get in the way of the main message.

Cannot agree more. Looks kinda childish too.
It was nice when emoji were used sparingly and with purpose and intention.
As my childhood English teacher said - too much of anything, good for nothing.

Long back I was wondering if a tip jar type service that'll get me access to what I actually want to see would be a better solution in place of subscribing to every website that produces an interesting article once in a while. There were a couple of such services but they never got popular.
Perhaps this model alone is not sustainable but it could be paired with ads (as in ads or fee off a tip jar pay). Even then, it surely won't lead to infinite growth, which is the only goal nowadays.

I can kind if understand how forcing everyone to add on to the pile of content, from a business point of view.
However they may have proved that they are indeed.. trash. Maybe even a few times.

In my eyes they are in the same class of Facebook, uservoice, Pinterest, Quora etc.

Directory specific tools (versioned if necessary) that are managed in declarative fashion is great.
I use Brewfile too. Still prefer some stuff to be managed by brew. For example the browsers, App Store apps (managed via mas[1])

I don't want to hear about the state of your Confluence (or equivalent), if you do use it!
Also one more thing I started noticing is unnecessarily detailed comments in code, complete with issue numbers. And some of that belong in version control commit (IMHO).

And it quickly puts a "Let me Google that for you" feeling in the air, but stronger. It discourages you form asking again.
