@deafferret It's stupid simple. "date' in the front matter would default to today, but if you set it to some other day, it respect that, as seen here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tBaxter/another-rodeo/refs/heads/main/src/pages/bikes/peugeot-ph19-mixte.md

@deafferret in 11ty it’s very easy to set the date to whatever you want. I do this a lot when I’m recounting past projects.

@drahardja back when I was active on the old #django irc I knew someone developing such a thing. But that’s been awhile.

@oh_that_courtney you are the second person I’ve seen say this. Almost exactly

@codacode @mgwalker maybe a better drinker than a general, though.

@malarkey it’s not about the play, it’s about the execution. A bold play executed badly is still bad.

@mathowie Welcome to KC. Let me know if you need any recommendations!

@marcusolsson glad you liked it!

@cferdinandi It's been a lifetime since I wrote this, but I love seeing the ideas living on and gaining some traction.

@drahardja William Lyons and Malcolm Sayer are both spinning more than fast enough in their graves to generate power for this next generation of Jaguars.

@webology I’m keeping one eye on the starter packs for when I’m ready to *selectively* expand my pool, but for now am still following pretty much just known entities, and very much trying to keep them broad. I don’t want to over index on anything.

I was asked today to write up a quick under-the-hood look at how I built DSCovery, the Django-based civic tech jobs aggregator I created awhile back. So, if that's your sort of jam: https://another.rodeo/building-dscovery/

#django #CivicTech

So many alpha males, so few people working on QA to get them ready for beta.

@drahardja The Democratic Party continues to break itself into smaller factions, while completely ignoring anyone who isn't already in one of those factions.

@webology I think the danger is when people who are *usually* smart conflate that into think they are *always* smart.

They are not.

@webology So true!

I was thinking today about how "though leaders" routinely throw out terrible ideas, and the entire concept of "thought leadership" is problematic, when I realized that the thought leaders require thought followers.

So maybe we should do less of that?

I wrote a thing about backpacks. Sort of.

@jacob @mogul interesting. I hadn’t tweeted since getting my archive. Seems like the behavior there could be clearer. Still, I was pretty impressed with how fast and well it did the job.
