Static Websites

0. Learn basic HTML + CSS.
1. Build (or use) a static site generator.
2. Use it to generate the static web pages.
3. Deploy those pages to a VPS, that is running a web server like NGINX (or whatever).
4. In the process learn about ssh, git, rsync, TLS, certs etc.

Dynamic Web Applications

1. Learn any programming language. Building your own SSG in Step 1 from the previous section ensures this.
2. Use it to create a basic backend API server.
3. Make a basic UI, and some JS which communicates with the backend, dynamically updates the UI.
4. Maybe have a database for some persistence.
5. Learn about auth/security, request validation, API design.

This is a great comic that finally made me realise some things that I was not able to understand even after years of marriage.

Got an idea for two short #rakulang #advent posts at 3 AM last night when I was unable to sleep.

The Raku code I wrote itself is fairly basic, but it demonstrates how Raku can be a fun choice for tasks like this, when "I need $MAINSTREAM-PRODUCTIVITY-LANG for the libraries!" does not apply.

1. Using Raku to create a presentation that is hosted in a Gemini capsule.

2. Using Raku to clean and load some CSV records into an SQLite DB.

These are both practical, but not very advanced. Is it a good idea?

@masukomi This looks great! Congratulations. 🎉

I'm in the process of deciding whether I want to use Fossil Wiki pages to store notes or whether I want to self host something like what you've done here.

@Theorem_Poem Many of the people who paid in misery coins their whole life, are still unable to enjoy their lives.

@thej If he didn't have a toddler with him, it could have gotten into a dangerous physical altercation.

@Sqaaakoi @i_lost_my_bagel Management Engine is essentially an entire OS (Minix) running /on/ the CPU.

So pretty much every computer out there is running two OSes at all times.

@Sqaaakoi @i_lost_my_bagel ah right, sorry I must have misinterpreted what you were asking and assumed that you were not aware of IME. My apologies.

Now, even I am wondering the same thing... 🤔

I am back after my self imposed break of one week. Occasionally, there was a mild urge to access the Fediverse or Lobste.rs, but it was not difficult overall.

If you are feeling in a bit of a rut on here, aimlessly scrolling or you are concerned it's taking up too much of your life, I highly recommend taking a break.

You will find other things to do. You can live without all these things.

@aral I'm surprised they have the time and energy to spitefully block/prevent you from using it.

@aral Why would they blacklist someone who's obviously not a spammer, malicious user?

Did you use FB to criticise them?

@aral Where is this radiation emitted from? The materials of the house itself?
