eugenekolo··on Ghost 3.0
Ghost is okay. My blog runs Ghost. I've been using Ghost from about when it was first released, v.09 or something.

I am now planning on moving towards something more static and simpler. Ghost started as a simpler alternative to WordPress, but slightly more powerful than Hugo/Jekyll/etc. It now seems to just be a WordPress clone written in JS instead of PHP. It's still fine and works well... but, I can't see a reason to use it versus WordPress and its lost roots to its simplicity.

I will probably be migrating to Jekyll for easier self hosting and hacking. Perhaps I'll stick with Ghost... but, I'm starting to become weary of "commercial open source" products. Self hosting is becoming harder and harder... it's in their best interest to make you buy the managed solution. It looks like Ghost has transitioned to a product for media corps, in that sense it looks good and I'd use it. For personal usage, I can't recommend it anymore.

Nobody using a raspberry pi forgets that.
eugenekolo··on Why Python 3 Exists
Yeah, I'm not reading 15K LOC... What makes it clever? What is even the point of linking a 15K file?
eugenekolo··on Why so many Americans claim Cherokee ancestry
I wouldn't trust something specifically named "elizabethwarrenwiki" as trust worthy. But, relying on Wikipedia isn't too much better. Not for politics.
eugenekolo··on Dnsteal – DNS exfiltration tool for stealthily sending files over DNS requests
I think your use of dots speaks for itself there ;). I know of several companies that log DNS, and it wouldn't pass inspection by a human operator which also has to be considered for something to be stealthy.
