One of my pet peeves is the eventual demise of context with hyperlinks—sure, a domain may still resolve, but the content may be long gone, or worse still, suffered SEO, so a lot of technical nuance has been lost in favour of changing an article written for humans into something to game crawlers.

My hope for the future "web", is that if a user chooses to, outbound links may be cached and ultimately preserve a copy of what was linked to at the time it was linked to it upon publishing (or was updated).

In putting together the memorial website for my late friend Ted Fletcher (tedfletcher.co.uk), it dawns on me how scattered and ultimately ephemeral our collective knowledge of someone and their achievements can be. LLMs ultimately get the basics wrong, and thus history eventually becomes distorted.

This is where not having the limitations of character count and a sensible interoperable and decentralized solution would be nice as there's a lot more that I'd love to say about it. May write a blog post!

Character count limitations re "nuts".
I serve plenty of things up via HTTP when appropriate. Likewise, I sign my own certs if appropriate too.
For anything else the usual rules apply, but not everyone/everything has the same threat model, hence the remark about public-facing forms and e-commerce.

HTTPS on the likes of your `wp-admin` is recommended to prevent MITM style attacks slurping up your credentials. On the content side? Go nuts as long as there aren't forms for accounts or e-commerce, but remember that some web browsers spit their dummy out if something isn't available via HTTPS!

Yes, @scripting.com very eloquently summed it up.
Interoperability, decentralization and not just migrating to yet another proprietary fauxpen content silo is something that needs to be shouted from the digital rooftops.
Long live the personal website.

We're all out of budget for ascensions. How about descensions?
The baboon cave is looking mighty nice this time of year.
BTW, I was stood up and yelling during the Nintendo indie showcase because I remembered that convo we had about a phone version of Qud versus a Switch version. :- ) Excited.

It's certainly been a year so far! I'll be making more of an effort to be extroverted though! Feels like somewhat of a relief to put in an appearance even if it's not under more positive circumstances.
Hope you and yours are keeping well mate. X

What OS? If Windows, make sure your scaling uses even numbered percentages as a multiplier, i.e. not `125%`.

"it is possible to force a person’s sympathetic nervous system into Fight or Flight and dump all the adrenaline it has into your body. I did this multiple times a day, every day, for a month. That had a cost which I inevitably paid, and a limit which I inevitably hit."

This is incredibly well-written. I'm very proud of you and the progress you've made. What surprised me is that I didn't expect to relate so strongly to what happened, nor how you started to dig yourself out of The Hellhole—especially the working out and huge amounts of protein. Sending all my love.

It's wonderful to see you return to Ecco the Dolphin, Ed!
I know we had a heated convo a couple of years ago about the waste of water with AI and NFTs as I felt it betrayed the environmentalist message of Ecco, but I am so glad to see you announce a third one, mate! I know it'll be excellent. :- )🐬

I'm gonna need a studio recording of your best rendition of "Kookaburra sits in the ol' gumtree" to commemorate the 'straya tour. 'Folk Goes Prog Vol. 1' when?

If you get stuck or want/need pointing in a good direction, give me a shout. Always happy to share knowledge and help, and we can try and stick some of that knowledge on pain points in the public domain for others to benefit from.
I guarantee you do far more complex things all the time though!

No tutorials off the top of my head (though likely tons on Google), but I promise you that game dev is infinitely more difficult than setting up a blog—largely intuitive and self-explanatory. :- ) I think you'll do just fine and realize you were overthinking setup—it's weirdly simple these days!
