In reply to <a href="https://carpetbomberz.com/2025/02/14/gulf-of-mexico/#comment-302">CogDog</a>. It's funny I'm seeing these comments now to reply to them. Are you seeing the replies to the comments? Still working on the settings to see what I may have done to unwittlingly sabotage the ReadWriteWeb. My intentions are good! I want it to be Read + Write.

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>WordPress is haunted. I typed a line of comment, used a return and it disappeared! Anywho, this ridiculousness is typical of the current Idiobrocracy, unnecessarily dividing people. The map is not only no -territorial it should be non-political. #CogDogPbzzragOybttvat2025</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

Gulf of Mexico

It’s pronounced “Gulf of Mexico” Your favorite free map provider may lie to you. Your GPS even may lie. But I will not lie. I’m not paid to lie, or lying to suck up to Daddy, to avoid government interference or worse “regulation”. No here it is, the truth, both plain and simple. It is […]

Matt Mullenweg is EVIL incarnate

bullenweg Bullenweg.com is no longer available following threats of legal action from Matthew Mullenweg. Platforming the claims in the lawsuits, in particular, is shaky ground. I encourage you to read this article: https://www.vulture.com/article/piers-morgan-apologizes-jay-z-beyonce-uncensored-jaguar-wright.html It is important to me to know who is behind Bullenweg, and I believe the legal system provides ample opportunities to do […]

The Human Element

https://campustechnology.com/Articles/2024/09/20/Digital-Layers-and-Human-Ties-Navigating-the-CIOs-Dilemma-in-Higher-Education.aspx Nice little summation of the role tech plays in removing the “need” for intervention/assistance from a person in the loop. Ideally everything is DIY, freeing you to spend less of your valuable time waiting to perform a key activity, chore if you will, for work or daily life. The more those automations occur, the […]

Lady Deathstrike – AKA Crowdstrike A/V

I don’t want to dump on a company who as nears as I can tell has been good at it’s job. It “feels” like they are able to prevent some of the barbarians attempt to break into desktops and servers all around the world. And by some accounts the hacking groups do attempt to sense/figure […]

Citation: Simon Willison

https://simonwillison.net/2024/Jul/14/pycon/#atom-everything Simon’s sharing some slides for a talk he gave at PyCon 2024. Well worth reading his account of what “was” back in 1956 when the term “artificial intelligence” was coined. This is in contrast to what we have NOW, Large Language Models. And this is the killer slide for me:

Comment on Eleventy (11ty) and the burgeoning static web by carpetbomberz

At least one person has discovered they needed/wanted #webmentions on their 11ty website. But it's more complicated than that. Apparently there are templates for 11ty that have #webmentions included and ones that do not. And more importantly it appears non-trivial to add #webmentions after the fact. https://sia.codes/posts/webmentions-eleventy-in-depth/. This not a cookbook, step 1, 2, 3, 4 kind of guide, where you need to do everything by rote. No. This very much a detailed explanation of what to setup, and why you need to set it up in order to get #webmentions running. TL;DR - 1.) Set up webmentions for your website 2.) Securely store your webmention token in Netlify and inject it during development 3.) Fetch webmentions at build time 4.) Save webmentions in a cached file that persists between Netlify builds 5.) Render webmentions in Eleventy using Nunjucks I don't know what any of this means, never had to setup it up myself. Needless to say, it is in a word, "non-trivial" to get #webmentions setup on 11ty based website.
