I'm trying out a new platform for scribbles: short notes, thoughts, and other snippets that I'd like to share/collect in one place but that don't necessarily belong on my primary long-form tech blog.

For example:
scribbles.jbowdre.lol/post/hyp

I'm pretty pleased with this, particularly for how quick-and-easy it was to set up and start posting.

(Also, even if you don't want to click my link, if you hop between different shells you'll probably want to bookmark this: hyperpolyglot.org/unix-shells)

I checked out your tech blog, totally awesome design! πŸ‘Š πŸ€“ 😎

@p3R1n01D thank you, I really appreciate that!

I've done a lot of fumbling/learning with CSS to get it to look the way I wanted and I'm pretty pleased with the state of it now.

@john_b
CSS is pretty cool. I started learning it > 20 years ago, still learning/fumbling with it. πŸ˜‰ Looks like you've got it dialed, but LMK if you ever have questions.

I'm going to check out your site better as soon as I have more time, looks like a treasure trove. I'm looking at possibly building a simple app, my first, so you've got my interest!

@p3R1n01D very cool! What kind of app might you build?

It's for an activism org I volunteer with, to connect volunteers.

Phase 1 goal is simple messaging about once a day, with notifications. Preferably with a few screens, mostly static info.

I'm thinking a PWA based on WordPress, as a subdomain of our main site. Just my best guess on approach so far.

Our Executive Director set up App My Site on our main site, without checking w/me. 😣 πŸ˜‚ $200/mo & it sucked!

Trick is we'll need to get it in the major app stores, so it worked for that.
