The archive of what I posted on Twitter, which I now self host due to a lack of trust in Twitter and some other reasons.

I'll soon begin refelcting all my Mastodon posts here too. I'm happier self-hosting or maintaining an archive of my content on URLs that I can own.

There are tools to help you do this too. Such as this one from the makers of Eleventy.

@benoitgrelard @Playdead @davatron5000 Perhaps means you had headphones too... which added lots of atmosphere for me.

Still haunted by the long-haired underwater things.

Shudder.

Completely captivated by Inside by @Playdead.
Both the visual and the sound design are incredible. And it it as curiously compelling as it is regularly haunting.

Perfect on Nintendo Switch. Thanks for the recommendation, @davatron5000.

I'm really looking forward to this!

I'll be giving a whirlwind tour of some things you can do with @Netlify, and explaining why I care. https://twitter.com/joshnesbitt/status/1025342249863929856

I really don't mind saying, I'm jolly excited that:

- @itsHumdingers have a new comedy night, name, and venue
- @IvoGraham will be headlining our next show
- I'll have the honour of MC-ing
- I have an ice cream (unrelated)

You want tickets? Go go go!👇

@DwightConrad @keithdamiani @michaeldyrynda @Netlify @JigsawByTighten This could be related to the CDN URL normalization that maximises the CDN cache hits:

@aerotwist @jaffathecake That might not have been him. I bought a very similar photo frame recently and it came with that exact photo.

He's technically a model.

@zachleat @growdigital @Netlify It must happen!

I've toyed with that phrase before in talks about @netlify, but never taken it all the way up to 88mph.

⏪ Step *back through time* to see any previous deploy.
⏩ See what the site will look like *in the future* thanks to preview builds

@mattferderer @growdigital @Netlify Also, even with cached DB requests, you still need to render views and serve things on demand. Granted, adding layers of caching can expedite requests, but you are really adding layers of logic that you have to manage yourself which essentially make things behave as if static. :)

Phil Hawksworth @philhawksworth • August 2nd 2018 replying to this from @mattferderer
@mattferderer @growdigital @Netlify It's hard to know what state a site using cached DB request is in at any given time. And the developer needs to manage and invalidate that cache and interdependencies.

A static site can be wholly cached as an atomic, immutable deploy. Netlify does that for you automatically.

@notwaldorf **Adds Time Lord to LinkedIn profile**

Hey, remember that time you said I was a time lord? Wasn't that a nice moment? I remember it vividly. That http://setyourwatchby.netlify.com site looked exactly like this: https://5b634d0667610c4f935c85e2--setyourwatchby.netlify.com/

Sometimes I go there to reminisce.

@zachleat @growdigital @Netlify Ha ha. That would be silly 😜. We'd not be able to look back at the exact state of the clock at any given minute of any day since it was launched just by visiting the unique URL for that deploy. And we NEED that.

WE NEED IT, ZACH!

@nhoizey @eleven_ty Ha. Interesting question. But no. All the dependencies are cached between deployments on @Netlify for speed and stability. Yarn or npm install only happens if the package.json file changes.

@growdigital @Netlify That's a good instinct! It is wasteful. I'm not advocating for us all to perform fresh builds every minute. But I wanted to demonstrate that there are tools that let us rebuild and redeploy cheaply/frequently, and those can be triggered by many different events.

Not so static.

@LoganHoup @Netlify Not currently. You have ability to create rules based on country and language... but not timezone or city. I've heard conversations though... so who knows!

Meanwhile, all of America is sent to the LA timezone(!) unless you choose one explicitly: https://setyourwatchby.netlify.com/timezones
