Reminder that it's the first #HomebrewWebsiteClub Nottingham of the decade tomorrow!

Hope to see some of you there for building / working on your personal websites https://www.jvt.me/events/homebrew-website-club-nottingham/2020/01/08/

Been watching #GoodOmens this evening - lighthearted, tongue in cheek, and some wonderful David Tennant

But they were on a break 🙄

To celebrate the being able to share photos on my website, here's one of me and Anna's cat, Morph, over the holidays

Licensing is hard, especially when projects you use want to protect their end users and have gone for strong copyleft licenses like the GPL/AGPL

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.

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.

Yes! Not only that, but the power of the #IndieWeb https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/10/20/indieweb-talk/ - I'd recommend coming to a #HomebrewWebsiteClub to work on your website https://indieweb.org/next-hwc

Watched John Wick 3 last night. Great movie, shame we missed it in the cinema - even more ingenious ways to kill people, and we learn more about the underground, too

Is anyone aware of anywhere that the contract for #Netlify's "Outgoing Webhook" is documented? I can't seem to find it on https://docs.netlify.com/site-deploys/notifications/#outgoing-webhooks or https://open-api.netlify.com/

Off for a massage so listening to Phaeleh to get me in the relaxed state of mind I need https://open.spotify.com/album/32bexa9Sh3JeXEEwgcidqe?si=JV8UzqYfQuG7uFK1-8kang

For anyone who didn't make it to last night's #WiTNotts, I've got you covered as I wrote up my notes! https://www.jvt.me/posts/2020/01/02/smart-bins/

So I started to write a short 2019 in review blog post before realising I should finish my 2018 in review post first.

Woops! It's mostly written, but a bit longer than this years will be

Happy new year everyone! Hope 2020, and the new decade, is kinder to you than this one 🙌🏼

I haven't yet gotten around to writing my 2019 In Review post (and may not until the weekend) but I don't think it's going to be as long as 2017's. I quite like Max's format to keep it short https://mxb.dev/blog/year-in-review-2019/

An interesting way to manage it - I quite like the approach.

I'm a fan of how I do my own, and will write about it at some point - https://gitlab.com/jamietanna/jvt.me/issues/847

Real shame to see that @Meetup are further restricting their platform by locking down API access - maybe document this better before going through the process to register?

Thank you for submitting an application to access Meetup’s API and authenticate with OAuth2. This process provides a better and more secure experience for all Meetup members. Your request for API Access through OAuth has been denied. In order to be eligible for API access through OAuth you need to have a Meetup Pro Account.

My site is now running Hugo v0.62! Not too painful an upgrade from 0.58.3, given changes in the Markdown parser - https://gitlab.com/jamietanna/jvt.me/merge_requests/637 - largely Table of Contents related, and one place where I'd not got enough spacing in around fenced codeblocks

I won't be able to make it as I'm in Tenerife, but hope it's a good one!
