# Site TODO

## Notes

- use `zf` to fold sections
- use `zc` to expand tem

## general
- replace `<img>` in old posts with `{{< figure >}}` (partial work
  done on stuff `>= 2019`)
- fix broken links in posts
- import files
- add "music" somewhere ("songs", keep pmdn.org for personal stuff)
- add sticky footer:
  https://css-tricks.com/couple-takes-sticky-footer/
- toc: add title and aria-label
- toc: show on right sidebar on desktop
- htmltest/htmltidy post-receive hook (already installed as
  web.k3:~/go/bin/htmltest): <https://github.com/wjdp/htmltest>
- monthly link sweep?
- upgrade from bulma 0.9.3 to bulma 1.0.0
  <https://bulma.io/documentation/start/migrating-to-v1/>

## post ideas
- fast document search: postgres fts, `pg_trgm`, and tika (git/test/sift)
  (richard asked about this on 2019-07-22, so +1)
  - sqlite3 fts search
- pi notes
- k3 notes
- compiler surprises: https://godbolt.org/z/ZQbZ2R
- meson-junit
- pwasm
- RewriteMap/docker (gist)
- ev-crash-course (~/git/ev-crash-course)

  - legacy debian (hamm): http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/hamm/main/binary-i386/base/
  - things i noticed:
    - possible small set giving extreme outliers
    - dash is not /bin/sh on all linuxes (only debian-based distros)
    - wonder about overall size of base installs (base rate fallacy)
    - summary of rust conclusion seems suspect and different than
      content of paper itself
    - detailed results are interesting

    - IT policies should be descriptive, not prescriptive
  - "needs more testing", "testing can only demonstrate the presense of
    bugs, not the absense of them"
    combinatorial explosion can make it impossible to test all inputs
    for even seemingly simple functions.  example:
      `u64 f(u64 n) { return 1/(rand_val-n); }`
    - "beware of this code, i have only proven it correct, not tested

      absense of them"
  - needs a/b boot (what android does)
    <https://www.phoronix.com/news/systemd-Auto-Boot-Assessment>
    problem (in comments of phoronix article): crowdstrike deliberately
    bypassing
  - needs verification on signed drivers: driver is signed and verified,
    reads invalid config file
  - should be impossible to end up in invalid state ("halting problem",
    also limits the expressive power of configuration; e.g. "accidental
    interpreters")
  - code should execute in a trusted environment (already done with ebpf
    in linux and that still causes crashes, relies on a "sufficient
    smart compiler/validator")
