How to exit vim

Although I don't condone Vim bashing (as a Vim user, and because it quite often tells you how to exit) these are pretty good

It's #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham tonight! https://www.jvt.me/events/homebrew-website-club-nottingham/2020/01/08/

I'm not 100% what I'm working on - it may be finalising my Meetup.com Brid.gy integration, or may be just on my own site!

Choosing a license for GoatCounter

A very interesting read on choosing a license to protect the author's income, which I get, although realistically (at least) the AGPL has been written to ensure that the end users always get the code, not that the authors are protected.

This is an interesting one, because I've recently been very frustrated with Firefox and captive portals, as it attempts HTTPS first, then ends up retaining HSTS - it's a difficult one to get right though, and I agree that attempting HTTPS first is a better idea.

On Privacy versus Freedom | Matrix.org

An interesting read on creating a extensible platform which isn't truly private, vs a walled garden with true privacy, and the tradeoffs we have to consider.

We should have an email for each website

This is what I started doing when I got my personal domain all those years ago, as it allowed unlimited aliases and a catch-all address. There's nothing better than seeing some spam coming from an email that tells you exactly who sold/leaked your data.

I found that writing short blog posts as a form of documentation https://www.jvt.me/posts/2017/06/25/blogumentation/ helps lots with reducing the barrier to blogging, as well as writing one post a day for Nablopomo https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/11/01/national-blog-post-month/
