FAQ:
Q: "Why have you made all these posts with weird base64ed data?"
A: my web host doesn't charge for storage so I just put my personal files on here, in between my normal blog posts!
Q: ...you're storing info as ...WordPress posts?
A: Yeah, it works fine! Can be a little slow but hard to beat free!
Q: ...so how do you *find* files, the titles are just random base64 too. Is it encrypted?
A: Nope! File blocks are stored inline- they're actually CoWed and immutable, editing posts caused some data loss i can't be bothered to debt. technically every post is actually a *diff* for this reason; I have a Python script that reads the RSS feed and exposes all my files to me over FUSE.
Q: and writes work the same way?
A: yup! You just make a new post saying "I've overwritten the first 512 bytes in file foo with (data here)" and publish it.
Q: that's terrible
A: first time hearing about a blog-structured filesystem?
