RSS Part 2

This is maybe even less interesting than me introducing RSS, but I’ve added a tiny bit of JS to show a recent posts list on the index page. This should not have an impact if you aren’t running JS, and I maybe will consider a more robust and static approach in the future if I want more flexibility. I had no reason to minify or “”“compile”“” my javascript, so you’re welcome to read it in plain and judge.

A couple of TODOs based on my past week of work:

  1. I would like to share a repo of my single file Go programs, including the RSS generator. I doubt they have much utility to anyone else, but there’s no reason to keep these locked in the vaults.
  2. I need to follow up on Goodbye, Vim since I’ve gotten a lot more time hands-on-keyboard with OpenVi recently, mostly on this RSS stuff1.

I promise that there will be no more meta-posting for a while! I think my next bigger piece might revolve around full text search, though we’ll have to see where I end up actually spending my time.

  1. I also need to follow up on vis(1) as suggested by a reader. It seems like it might be a more modern alternative to vi, but I haven’t been able to give it a fair shake quite yet since it is rather complex and diverges in some interesting ways.
