Was cleaning up some unsaved open windows on my computer and found this drawing of mine. I’m not longer sure if I did it by hand or if it was from one of my forest generator tools I was working on. I think it is done by hand it looks to regular. But I like it. Reminds me a bit of an old RST graphics.

🍿 Person of Interest (2011)

John Reese, former CIA paramilitary operative, is presumed dead and teams up with reclusive billionaire Finch to prevent violent crimes in New York City by initiating their own type of justice. With the special training that Reese has had in Covert Operations and Finch's genius software inventing mind, the two are a perfect match for the job that they have to complete. With the help of surveillance equipment, they work "outside the law" and get the right criminal behind bars.

Glad I got the post about my homepage update done yesterday. I found so many issues in the page writing it. And also found quite a lot more today. I hope I’ve have fixed most of them now.

How to slim down your Hugo homepage into an archive and a live page

How to slim down your Hugo homepage into an archive and a live page

My homepage deploy script stopped working at the end of January. The Hugo content folder is now over 4 GB in size and this causes quite long build times. But the bigger issue is the checkout time and the actual time required to deploy the final page after the GitHub Action build has completed. The whole issue is made more complicated as I’m unable to run Hugo directly on my webhost. So each time I trigger a new build the build process copies the entire public folder, which takes up to 30 minutes. And then it often runs into a caching or timeout issue on my webhost, leading to the page not updating for up to 12 hours. I never found out what the actual issue was. So it was time to find a solution for these problems. I had already run into this situation a year ago and managed to patch it, but I was never happy with the overall build process. This time I want to fix the problems once and for all.

I’m wondering if frameworks and coding languages still matter in the not so far future. When the LLM is writing all the code, my opinions about a language matter a lot less. Only of course you run out of tokens and want to implement something by hand.

Nice I got the build time down to 1 minute (compared to like 30 minutes and more before).
