Blog Cleanup

EDIT (2026/04/25): As part of bringing this back online while being privacy preserving for me, the git history has been lost. I apologize. I really hate the idea of information being lost, but in this case its genuinely nothing important.

I just spent the past thirty minutes going back and removing a number of the links that were in my posts up to this point. Nothing important, just links to Wikipedia or Man Pages, but after speaking with a few friends, I realized the links weren’t exactly as useful as I thought they were. In addition to this my build time on Travis-CI had hit about four minutes and all I have to build is about eight pages, so that’s absurd, and not really scalable. All the important links have been left in, along with any interesting or amusing ones.

If you are looking for the links, you can go into the github repository for this site, and look for the commits prior to “Automatic Commit: cleaning up links”.

This also helps to maintain my sanity, so there’s that. Fifty links in one article was causing me to worry quite a lot about dead links.
