Dear lazy web, I'm looking for a static site generator with support for events, i.e. should output a page with calendar view, an iCal/ics file, rss/atom for newly added and updated events. Any hints?

I know this doesn't quite meet your criteria, but I've been building Meetable as a minimal events website, I'm running three copies of it successfully now. https://github.com/aaronpk/Meetable

@aaronpk looks pretty neat. The auth options seem overkill for my single-user use case. Is there a month/week calendar view? (not really crucial, but I kinda had that in mind)

By single-user do you mean you want to install it in a completely closed environment? Events are added via the web UI so some sort of auth is needed for that.

There's no month/week view right now but I would be open to adding that!

@aaronpk yep, just me as the single author. Public, but read-only.

That's definitely a challenge with a web UI for editing then. I see why you were looking for something where you create events by making files on disk, that removes that concern.

You could use the "remote user" auth option to set that header in your web server by matching your home IP address or something.

I'm also open to suggestions for how to make this work better in this kind of single-author case because it's not uncommon!

@aaronpk No, I think the github oauth + limiting to a single user would work fine. I just wonder why you didn't start with a naive user+password table first. Sure, doing proper and secure auth is not trivial.

I just don't like passwords, and most of my uses of this are for multi-author editing where I definitely don't want people to have to have another password. I suppose the password option is easiest for a single-user setup though.

I wonder if it's related to this notification I got in December 2019?

Yes very likely. The problem was it wouldn't let me add an app specific password even. The problem cleared up later so they clearly made a mistake rolling that out.

I'm trying to route sound from a Focusrite audio interface through the headphone output and lightning adapter into an iPhone to use with the video app, but it's not detecting the signal as a microphone
Am I out of luck?

you might need one of those TRS-TRRS adapter cables, but I'm not actually sure how the iPhone deals with the headphone level rather than the normal level from mics

The part of this process I hate the most is my local ISP refused for months to offer me any other option until I hit them with industry jargon then suddenly the magic words opened the gates (in this case it was “do you offer wireless dedicated backhaul connections?”)

I just wrote a stateless 45-line oauth2 server for testing purposes (i.e. no security), I don't know if I'm proud or horrified.

There's a domain still in my @namecheap shopping cart, and I genuinely don't remember what the project idea was for that domain. I guess it's good that I didn't actually buy it.

That's my Amazon cart. I do that on purpose to stop me from buying random things. If I still need it the next time I visit the site, I'll buy it. Otherwise I just delete it; it obviously wasn't that important.

I find it so interesting that people want free content from us daily, but then get so tilted when we make some money or do a sponsorship or something

Would you prefer I just make thousands of hours worth of content and make nothing?

Would you prefer I quit and get a job?
