I tend to drop a lot of links in my posts. Some point to other posts/pages within the same site, but many point to external sites. As a *reader*, I like to know where a link is going to take me, but as a *writer*, I'm not always great about indicating that context within the text.

I mentioned in my inaugural "This Week" post[1] that I recently discovered how to use Hugo's link render-hook templates[2] to automatically apply a little `↗` marker to external links posted on runtimeterror[3]. All that took was creating `layouts/_default/_markup/render-link.html` with the following content to overwrite the default rendering:

|
|
||||||
=> https://runtimeterror.dev 3: runtimeterror
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
{{- $u := urls.Parse .Destination -}}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
{{- with .Text | safeHTML }}{{ . }}{{ end -}}
|
|
||||||
{{- if $u.IsAbs }}↗{{ end -}}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
{{- /* chomp trailing newline */ -}}
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
That works well with Hugo since the marker gets inserted into the HTML source code at build time. But what about here on Bear?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
So I went looking for a CSS-based solution that would work here. It only took about 30 seconds of searching to find a post from Jake Bauer[1] with the relevant CSS bits.

All I needed was to add this block to my Bear theme CSS:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
a[href^="http"]:where(:not([href*="blog.jbowdre.lol/"]))::after {
|
|
||||||
content: "↗"
|
|
||||||
}
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
That was surprisingly easy, and today I learned you can use complex/compound selectors to perform pattern matching with CSS. Neat!

*These "week in review" posts seem to be pretty popular so I thought I'd jump on that trend, too. Also, I struggle to post regularly. I tell myself it's because I'm busy building things (and documenting things), but Robert Birming assures me that there is always time to write[1]. So let's give that a try.*

### Rocket Surgery
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Last weekend, I started building[1] the LEGO Artemis Space Launch System model[2]. I was only able to drag out construction for a week, and I didn't go over budget, either. I really don't get why Boeing had such trouble with this build.

### ChillFeed
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Last weekend I *also* began developing a lightweight feed aggregator based on my rather specific preferences. I used Claude[1] to help me rapidly prototype and iterate on my ideas, and had a working demo about two hours after the idea first popped into my head. It doesn't track read/unread status (unread indicators stress me out) and doesn't display the full text of any post (I'd rather see what the author wrote on their site than in a stripped-down form). It uses GitHub Actions to refresh the subscribed feeds and uses GitHub Pages to provide the web interface. And it's configured with YAML. I'm still doing a lot of tweaking but I've been quite pleased using ChillFeed[2] to follow blogs this week.

### Cycling
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I (along with many others, apparently) picked up cycling during lockdown, and I've done a reasonably good job of keeping with it. I try to ride three times a week, and aim for at least 12 miles each ride. I had been doing those rides primarily on the multi-use paths near my home, but lately I'm doing more and more of those rides on the road. That seems to give me a much better workout, and this week I hit a few personal records along the way. It feels good, man!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### In other news...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- I moved some of the more personal (that is, about me rather than a piece of technology) slash pages from my runtimeterror blog[1] over here: namely, /uses[2] and /save[3]. My thinking is this blog will be a more logical place for stuff about me rather than just the technology I play with (though there's of course going to be a ton of crossover there).

|
||||||
=> /uses/ 2: /uses
|
|
||||||
=> /save/ 3: /save
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Semi-related, I finally figured out how to use Hugo's link render-hook templates[1] to flag external links with a little ↗ indicator so I implemented that on the other site. Maybe I can figure out a CSS-based approach to do that here too.
|
|
||||||
- I built on last week's work[2] on using Cabin analytics to track upvotes on Bear posts and added a similar "kudos" function[3] to runtimeterror.
|
|
||||||
- A fun side project at work this week was creating a GitHub Actions workflow to help us decide where we should go for lunch each day. It's another excuse for me to keep practicing building stuff with Go, and I think it's helping some of the other team members get a better understanding of how GitHub Actions workflows work.
|
|
||||||
- I've been *s l o w l y* reading the O'Reilly Production Kubernetes[4] book for what seems like ages. I finally finished it last night.🎉 It gave me a lot of good insight and things to consider when it comes to building a production Kubernetes platform. My next "for learning" book will probably be something Go-related.
