Happy 2017 all!
A little over two years ago, the Wordpress instance I had been “maintaining” to run my blog was hacked by a bunch
of script kiddies.
Not like I’m excusing them or anything, hacking someone’s hobby domain feels rather like walking into someone’s
It feels like there are new security issues around WordPress every week.
Admittedly, the fact that WordPress automatically updates itself helps a lot, but it does lead one to wonder if a simpler solution might make more sense.
I really like the idea of a static generator tool like Pelican, but also really enjoy blogging from my mobile devices with tools like Blogsy.
Woo. So, as I indicated in my old blog, I have switched to Wordpress. Typo is nifty and all, but it’s still hackerware and seems unlikely to veer from that course any time soon.
Much as I love Ruby, I am still clueless about Rails and truthfully, even web development in general (I have now learned the basics of CSS - but apparently not enough to be dangerous yet, and I *still* don’t know Javascript.)
