After the day I've had, it doesn't feel like I've been away at all 😅 at least I've got a massage now at https://www.beautytemple.co.uk/ now 😴🤤

This is very cool. I've been thinking about containerising my personal APIs for this site, and I guess this would remove a lot of the work! Looking forward to playing with this once it's released.

Good news: after a week on holiday my body is now waking up consistently at a reasonable time.

Bad news: that time is 0830 when I'm meant to have already left the house for work

What are folks using for free/low cost notifications for personal projects? I know https://indigenous.realize.be uses https://pushy.me and until now I've used https://pushbullet.com, but given https://www.jvt.me/mf2/2020/01/yelaf/ I may need to replace it with something more substantial

I used to write a lot of shell scripts before realising that what I was trying to do was treat shell scripting as a "full" scripting language (I won't define here what I mean by "full").

Its not - reach for a higher level scripting language like Ruby or Python when things are getting more complicated, and allow shell scripts to glue things together, or be for quick tasks maybe a few lines long.

When you do write them, this advice is great but it's definitely worth gaining understanding of when you should and shouldn't use them.

For anyone at #NaConf looking to learn more about owning your data and the #IndieWeb, I recently did a talk about it, with a transcript available at https://www.jvt.me/posts/2019/10/20/indieweb-talk/ which will hopefully shed more light!

Last night I was dreaming about Mutual TLS. Damn you #PSD2 and eIDAS certs!

Even more surprising that its a few days into a relaxing holiday in which I've not thought about work at all!

A great read about why PHP is still a great choice in 2020, despite the bad press it gets from developers (who likely haven't touched it in years).
