I think I am a minimalist

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

I just watched a video by Matt D’Avella. His channel is not new to me, some time ago I already dealt with the topic of minimalism more deeply. But the video made me think about it again.

Productive Sunday morning: I just integrated a full-text search into GoBlog. It’s using the SQLite FTS5 extension. I always find it impressive how many features SQLite has and what is possible with it!

Feel free to try the new search (on the English blog - or on the German one). 🤓

I will participate at least partially in the IndieWebCamp East. Probably only “in the forenoon”, because I am 6 hours ahead. It is my first IndieWebCamp, I am very excited!

Things I noticed and a thank you!

Since migrating my blog to the new CMS, I carefully watch the BunnyCDN logs to see if there are some errors or 404s somewhere. It’s looking good so far. Two days ago, I found an issue with the routing of paths that included an encoded character (such as ü or ä), but I found an easy workaround for this. Another thing I noticed by looking at the logs is the number of requests to the feeds on this website.

I was wondering why my posts didn’t arrive at Mastodon, but it seems my ActivityPub implementation was broken. Now it should be fixed. For all ActivityPub followers who missed it, I now use my own CMS for this blog.

Happy Birthday, Go!

Published on in 🔗 Links

Go is now eleven years old! I’ve only been programming in Go for about 1.5 years, so I’ve only actively followed a small part of those eleven years. Nevertheless I am impressed how simple this programming language is, although new features are added all the time. And instead of getting slower with more features, Go gets faster with every new release.
