How Not To Write A Web Service in Rust (fd93.me)
 

Wrote an article about my extended skill issues and failures at writing Rust for the web. Luckily managed to get back on track recently.

Why I Left NixOS for Ubuntu in c/programming@programming.dev

Sounds good in theory, until you want to install scikit-image or other Python libraries which need complex builds.

Why I Left NixOS for Ubuntu (fd93.me)
 

Hey all, thought this might be of interest to some here.

Wrote about why I moved from NixOS to Ubuntu after using it for several months on my daily driver. Suspect that this take is likely to be kind of controversial and court claims of skill issues, which might even be true.

Let me know what you think.

No Boilerplate NixOS video in c/programming@programming.dev

This video is great. I'm on Nix and I wholeheartedly endorse the philosophy behind it, No Boilerplate has been a really big eye opener for me over the last few months.

Stacks for Simple Static Sites in c/programming@programming.dev
[–] fd93@programming.dev 2 points 8 months ago (2 children)

For me, I write notes in Markdown anyways as part of a Zettelkasten, and by setting up my site this way I can stay in my development / note taking environment (nvim) and push stuff up to the site very quickly. It's far easier as a developer to work off-the-cuff with this type of workflow, at least for me.

Also, would be very easy to self-host or move provider if Vercel or any other provider goes down.

I use Pelican for the site and it's working great. :)

Astro is also popular and will be familiar if you've developed with React before as they support JSX templates.

Hey, just wanted to drop this here. It's a technical follow-up to The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Static Sites which was reasonably popular, and explains the components of a static site's stack.

Hey - the poster isn't actually the author. That would be me! Thanks for the feedback though. I normally just use Dark Reader for switching theme.
