# Site TODO
**Note:** This is the `TODO.md` from the old Jekyll backend, so some of
this stuff may not make any sense.
## general
* replace `<img>` in old posts with `{{< figure >}}` (partial work
done on stuff `>= 2019`)
* fix broken links in posts
* import files
* comment idea: http://donw.io/post/github-comments/
* add "music" somewhere ("songs", keep pmdn.org for personal stuff)
* add sticky footer:
https://css-tricks.com/couple-takes-sticky-footer/
* enable mathjax for articles:
https://bwaycer.github.io/hugo_tutorial.hugo/tutorials/mathjax/
http://docs.mathjax.org/en/latest/output/svg.html
(alternative, render mathjax as SVG via CLI)
## projects
* ft2-ruby
* gemboree
* themble
## posts
* animated svg, another example here:
- <https://old.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/t45aqe/5_things_you_dont_need_javascript_for/>
* 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
* monthly link sweep?
* pi notes
* k3 notes
* compiler surprises: https://godbolt.org/z/ZQbZ2R
* model 3 (3 months, notes, cost per mile comparison)
* temperature sensors (see SA post, add bit about "meat"): https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3468084&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=176#post494884256
* weather charts
* micromeet
* sensortron
* teslacam-merge
* jenkins pipeline, blue ocean, Jenkinsfile notes
* meson-junit
* bf-dynasm
* bfb64
* pwasm
* jiffy
* RewriteMap/docker (gist)
* ev-crash-course (~/git/ev-crash-course)
* ev articles
* pocket-jim
* ccs/nuclear/hydrogen is a scam
* 2021 bev ranges
* thoughts on "relevance of classic fuzz testing"
* https://neverworkintheory.org/2021/10/01/the-relevance-of-classic-fuzz-testing.html
* "law of small numbers": http://psychology.iresearchnet.com/social-psychology/decision-making/law-of-small-numbers/
* full paper: https://neverworkintheory.org/2021/10/01/the-relevance-of-classic-fuzz-testing.html
* 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
* my tools 2021 (vim, irssi, screen, mutt/offlineimap/notmuch, irb, git, bash)
* buttcoin:
* https://www.theonion.com/man-who-lost-everything-in-crypto-just-wishes-several-t-1848764551

- CTEs as optimization barrier:
https://old.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/suyidt/a_hairy_postgresql_incident/hxdvwl4/
- `~* ANY(string_to_array(?))` (comment in reddit w/json array)
- pub/sub?
- domains instead of repeated check constraints
- trigger `TG_ARGV`
- trigger `REFERENCING ... AS` (newer PG)
- `COMMENT ON` ...
- `LISTEN/NOTIFY`?
- timestamptz, long timezone names aware of DST
- RETURNING
- misc go cover improvements
- add `title` and maybe `aria-label` attributes to relevant elements
- add option to include external stylesheet?
* compare and contrast cyclonedx vs spdx
- (at the moment i like cyclonedx more, it seems less ad-hoc)
- https://cyclonedx.org/docs/1.4/json/
- https://github.com/spdx/spdx-examples/blob/master/example3/spdx/example3-bin.spdx
- go parsers for both are available:

- https://github.com/CycloneDX/cyclonedx-go
* investigate sendBeacon()
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Navigator/sendBeacon
* YUGE site JS savings
- 27 bytes, ~8.8% unminified size reduction
- notes in header of `themes/hugo-pt2021/assets/script.js`
- over the network size (inc deflate and headers) went from
450 bytes to 374 bytes for a 76 byte reduction (~16.9%)
* css bg fade:
<file:///data/home/pabs/git/test/html/css-bg-fade/index.html>
<https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Link_types/preload>
* needed in a package manager
- organizational namespacing
- signing and/or global subdb
<https://blog.tidelift.com/the-state-of-package-signing-across-package-managers>
- declarative install
- typosquatting (see sqo vulns from may email)

* radare2, ghidra

formats (msgpack/protobuf), compression (zstd), language (rust,
go), and crypto (ed25519)?
