@nelson@infosec.exchange #TIL you don't have to slavishly create a .gitignore for every project, and you don't have to broadcast personal files you are ignoring. I've used #git for years, and this is a revelation... https://nelson.cloud/.gitignore-isnt-the-only-way-to-ignore-files-in-git/ Thank you Nelson, whoever you are!

Being a member of the British Science Fiction Association, I get access to the deep analytical thoughts of academics on the subject. And now this absolute gem has appeared, exploring the diversity of on-line presences available to those wishing to move away from the algorithmic doom-scrolling, and the philosophical drives for these alt-systems. I love this! https://wp.me/p13Uo-3vM #writing #reading #indieweb #smolweb #selfhosted #scifi #bsfa #mastodon

My rationale for a dynamically-produced blog site, https://khleedril.org/blog/2026-03-07--dynamic-site.html, in response to https://islandinthenet.com/does-it-matter/. TL;DR Rust back-end for the win! #indieweb #computing #rustlang

@KurtHohmann I just enjoyed reading Thor&#39;s Hammer, loved how you acknowledged the mechanisms of the Earth in producing a cleansing human experience! Felt like I was there, standing in the rain.
