While still a manual process to update my static #Hugo site with webmentions, I now have the basic framework in place. It wasn't as hard as I feared it would be ... mostly because I'm climbing onto the shoulders of giants.

@amolith@masto.nixnet.xyz Very nice! 👍

@amolith@masto.nixnet.xyz Wow. I thought I had worked in some insane places, but none of the insanity I've had to deal with even comes close.

SIte update: My Semantic IndieWeb Theme currently being used for the site has been updated to provide a more responsive design. On landscape tablet or wider screens, the author card now displays in a column on the right side of the screen. On smaller devices, such as ones phone, the author card will continue to render at the end of the page.

@f0x Thank you for sharing. I hadn't heard of BorgBase before, but I am definitely going to look into them now!

Also thanks to @amolith@masto.nixnet.xyz for boosting the message into my stream.

@aral Nice interview. Thank you for sharing.

I noticed you mentioned @switchingsoftware -- I thought that was pretty cool, too.

While waiting at the local Panera Bread shop for my lunch order, I noticed a fellow patron who was wearing a Miskatonic Observatory t-shirt. It made my day.

@chris I guess I've been very lucky (or just don't use it enough yet). I haven't been hit by any spam.

According to Ars Technica, there has been an "onslaught of spammers". Oye! At least the keybase folks say that they are trying to do something about it.

Inspired by the many blog sites out there that display a series of icons linking to the site author's other sites and social media profiles, I set out to add the same to my site.

tl;dr : For my use-case, using WebFonts for the icons made more sense than trying to use the SVG files directly.

@chris As someone who only recently found keybase and thought the idea of cryptographic proofs for tying social media identities together was a cool one, I'm curious why you've decided to delete your account there.

Are they secretly evil, and I haven't discovered it yet?
