  • A Day Down Is A Day Up!

    I was so busy yesterday that I didn’t post anything. I’ve been trying to fill up my front page with posts (of varying quality). Here’s another one added to the pile.

    Site Health is good! Despite a couple of niggling things

    WordPress offers such cool features that you don’t think of when you host a static site. Site Health, for example. It provides all kinds of checks that you may not even think of when hosting your website. And I don’t want to think about them! I’m hosting this site to write posts, not maintain the back end.

    That’s something that gets lost in the sauce for a lot of developers-turned-bloggers. Just because you know how to do everything by hand, doesn’t mean you should. I get paid to write and maintain code at my day job. I don’t get paid for it for doing it on my free time.

    Sometimes, I just want to write. So here I go, writing again. 🖋️

  • Still Comin’ Along

    It’s a new day and a holiday in the ‘States. It’s MLK day and I’m working on the website again this morning.

    I put a hour or so into the home page and templates. I’m using the Raft theme and it’s capable but there’s lots of tweaks I’ve had to do.

    I’m also still putting up content on the site so I know how everything looks and runs. Here’s another one! 🚀

  • Egee.io: Back Online!

    Egee.io: Back Online!

    On the last website, the most recent post was “Egee.io’s not dead yet!”… And then it abruptly died.

    I was trying to wrangle the back end with Podman and everything went to hell. I decided to hose it all out, database included. We’re good now.

    I’m writing this little piece to get some content out there. I’m browsing themes and I’m looking for a good one.
