Mobile From DockerCon

Yesterday on Twitter I asked if anyone had tips for authoring and publishing with Hugo from a mobile device. After a bit of hacking, I’ve cracked it (at least in a way that works for me.) All of this post was done from my iPhone.

In a nutshell:

  • Working Copy for iOS (amazing git client)
  • TravisCI to build and push to S3
  • Camera for pics (duh)
  • Notes for writing (this can def be improved with a proper markdown editor)

Working Copy supports whatever that iOS feature is that lets you share things between apps. Here’s me getting this post from Notes to Working Copy:

Proper tutorial post to come…

Delancey is Good

Delancey is better than good. It’s been consistently delicious every time we’ve been (maybe 10 times, the first time about 5 years ago, I think).

We haven’t been since Elli was pregnant, and we weren’t sure if it was baby friendly, but we gave it a shot on Friday night. Babies are welcome, and they even have high chairs. June loved it:

They open at 5, and people start lining up a few minutes before. You’ll usually get seated immediately if you arrive before 5:15. If you’re kidless, I highly recommend going to their attached bar Essex at 4 and grabbing a few cocktails. They’re stiff, well-made, and they’ll hold a table for you in the restaurant and seat you right when they open.

Get a jersey salad to start (size small for two people, large for more). It’s my favorite salad of all time, with a light, tangy dressing, fresh and crispy greens, and really good croutons:

They make their own sausage, and the sausage pizza is all I’ve ever had. It’s perfect. My wife sticks with the mushroom, and we try to get a margherita to go. Love it every time.

Maui '15

We came to Maui last year (my first time in Hawaii) when Elli was pregnant with June. This year we brought her again. She was great on the 6+ hour flight and loves the water.

Bae caught us slippin’ halfway through:

Food is a big part of vacations and we revisited a few favorites from last year. First was breakfast (and great whale sightings) at The Gazebo. Fried rice and banana pancakes were on the menu:

We celebrated Pi Day at Leoda’s Kitchen and Pie Shop (and also a few breakfasts and lunches there):

I also cooked a few spam and egg sandwiches:

And my favorite image so far, taken on Baby Beach in Lahaina:

The full vacation album is up on SmugMug.

Ten Month Tunes

Tunes (we call her that, short for Juney Tunes, short for Looney Tunes, coined in the weeks after she was born) will be 10 months in a few days. We were practicing our crawling today in undies in the living room and the light was great (February was good to Seattle).

The complete album is on SmugMug

I’ve ignored my Big Camera (Nikon D7100) for a while because managing the hundreds of pictures that could come out of using it for just a few minutes was daunting. I’d take a lot of photos and they’d sit on the SD card for months. A few weeks ago I put together a workflow that makes it pretty quick work to surface a few keepers from any session, delete the no-keeps, and get everything up to SmugMug. I also use this workflow to solve my mobile photo problem. I’ll write about that later this week.
