A recipe can be a mantra, a ritual, a symbolic stay against chaos in the psyche and in the world My story has very little connection with this one (which is quite thought provoking). It just had me thinking about how a simple recipe somew

It's Apache 2. You can use it for anything though we do road-map against our own uses of course (mostly Kibana). There's nothing specifically tied to ES in it. The only difference with our library vs. someone else is we tend to ha

No. I've seen the output and it's just not very usable. If you need that functionality these days Framer and it's bridge product is nearly magic. You can set up some basic shim wrappers on your React components and things wor

I'm a "font-end designer". I've been one for since 2000 or so. To me, that basically meant I was a designer that could write HTML and CSS. At some point Sass was thrown into the stack and things became really awesome. I

Primarily because they focus on interfaces, not publishing. Serif is traditionally used for legibility of long text. Sans always wins for actual interface design (at least those with some manner of complexity) because it's much less vi

This was exactly my problem with College and why I didn't succeed there. I came from a really good high school that offered a breadth of knowledge across fields. When I went to college (granted in 1998) to become a "web designer&q

Hi. I maintain the library along with some others at Elastic. That warning is essentially us being good open source citizens and being very clear about how we maintain it. A lot of these other libraries are built specifically for their own

I use caps as my modifier. Then I can CAPS+HJKL for arrow keys. I'm a vim user though so this already feels pretty natural to me.

I agree with everything you say. All I'm saying is that in practice, the rST docs I saw, and the issues that came up around theming rST docs led me to believe that the flexibility of rST was its biggest problem (and strength). Markdown

A couple years ago I put together one of the more popular themes for Sphinx. It's the one used by Read The Docs and you've likely seen in countless times when searching for Python libraries. I prefer Markdown. It's readable a

Can't remember who exactly, but think it was Gus Grissom who brought along rolls of coins along during his Mercury mission as a money making scheme. Remember reading this in The Right Stuff, and it was likely in the movie as well.

Was about to write the same thing. None of the complaints in the article were about Javascript. It was more about the current habits that have evolved around it. Granted, I think the PHP world has had a good 10 years of dealing with limitle

The nice thing about Heinlein is he has a book for all stages. As I've gotten older I really prefer his "Time Enough for Love" novel, which is about looking back on a long life.

This goes both ways. Sometimes I avoid rereading books for the same reason. There was a Summer where Catcher in the Rye felt very important. I'd hate to reread it under my new, adult perspective. I'd prefer to let it linger in nos

The reason we went with GCS is because AWS limits you to 100 static sites (buckets). That's a block for our hosted solution. The code is MIT, so do with it what you want. May be a little bit more complicated then just switching out the

Came here to say this. Can't see any kind of mission statement other than there is a membership list and they committed to open source discussion.

I'll add my own as well. We recently open sourced the entire project under MIT. Basically if you're looking for a nice Node based CMS that acts like a static site generator, we're a decent option. http://www.webhoo

In the CMS itself it's handled by Elastic Search pretty easily. For the frontend, I used Swiftype's free version. It's what powers Webhook.com (itself is just Elastic Search as well, but adds some niceties like analytic). I w

Without Firebase? Quite a bit. I can't say enough good things about them. And remember, the output is all static, so it's not like you'll be hitting expensive limits from Firebase. We only use them on the CMS site. So unless
