I've grown a now-popular wordpress hoster. We tried a "secure plan", which, a.o. ran the WP codebase on read-only filesystem (technically: chrooted, so WP could not change its own codebase). We pitched this with the "pro

I use jekyll --preview for that. It seems you want to optimize your frontend-work. Tweaking a live setup that goes `client-> CMS -> Database. [switch-tab] [F5-refresh] -> client -> CMS -> Database -> client` is quite certa

The same as with any software: a deployment pipeline. Depending on your needs, a staging version can be built and hosted. To be promoted to production once chief editor Acks. Or multiple such versions. You can have multiple stages. Or just

There is no need for e.g. Hugo, Jekyll, ghost or many such setups to be audited. Because their model is inherently secure.

Whereas before you needed the correct Ruby runtime installed. I'm primarily Ruby developer, so I'm biased. But getting the right version of a Ruby runtime, then get the correct gems is a mess. Certainly not easier than getting som

With nginx becoming more popular this may have changed. But I just looked, and the official lesson on "installing wordpress" mentions only Apache[0]. As does the "how to install WordPress"[1]. Though checking a recent do

Definitely. I've founded and grew several webhosters, one specialised in WordPress. Our HTTP stack was varnish->nginx(loadbalancer)->nginx->phpfpm. It was pain. Not even WordPress core could (can?) run all its features; e.g. t

Didn't Microsoft team up with Ubuntu to offer this to Windows users? I'm out of the loop and haven't touched windows seriously in years (other than to fix WiFi or printer issues for family. Sigh), so I probably misunderstood

I used to generate most of my diagrams in PlantUML[0], but recently found that my not-taking app, Joplin[1], has Mermaid built in. PlantUML has the benefit that you can include it in your builds, e.g. parse any .plantuml files in `make doc`

Doesn't that hold true for any standard though? In HTTP we have Get, Put, Post, Delete, Patch or Options and not obtenir, mettre, poster, supprimer, corriger, options. Yet the French use the web all the time, as do Chinese or Maui. It

Do you think this is so different that no formal spec can ever carry the common denominator?

This hinges on a false dichotomy. You can have the current sloppy parsers AND a jsonresume.org parser besides each other. You can even hide the latter behind a tiny 'other upload formats' link, if you are afraid this option deters

It doesn't matter why a new version would be very backwards-incompatible. Whether that is language semantics (2->3) or deprecation and replacement of stdlib (3->4 ?)

I disagree here. Coming from Ruby, there are lessons to be learned. Ruby has a large stdlib, like you seem to want. But a lot of stuff in there is outdated. So much, that many, even most, people, projects, frameworks immediately replace the

TBH: TDD is not a silver bullet. And applying it religiously where it did not fit, has hurt me just as much as not applying it, where I should have.

My point is that if you have a class, or method, or variable that represents "one thing, or another thing" this is a poor abstraction. And that you can "reek" this smell quite clearly if your names contain "one Or t
