A little bit of weekend puttering with Zola, libvips, and the Superkube SCSS framework.

It’s fun! I may even go live with this one eventually.

Zola has fewer features than Hugo. And it’s slower — by about a second. 1.8s to build.

I do love using Tera for templating. And fewer features means I use exactly the right external tool rather than try to get close enough with SSG features.

It is in the realm of possibility that we may want to adjust our fridge just the tiniest bit.

You you know the site port might be getting real when he starts working on the h-card.

ox-hugo and Zola get along well enough with a little bit of tweaking the export.

Getting the emacs org config in there is a favor for future me. I’m sure I’ll want it tomorrow. Today I’ve been in more of a Logseq +nvim mood.

Gosh I did a lot on that Web site stuff. Got some knitting in too. Been meaning to.

Course, I spaced on a couple (minor) tasks I planned to do. Also, woke up at 6:30am, ate a very light breakfast, and am just now at 9:30pm eating lunch.

The hyperfocus side of ADHD.

People outside hear about hyperfocus and think it sounds great. Yay look at that concentration!

But all this is more like an exorcism really. Dealing with an intrusive thought I didn’t pick, that won’t leave me alone until I’ve exhausted it — like a toddler on a sugar binge.
