404s and updated CSS

CSS

I just “revamped” the CSS of this site; ableit somewhat minimally. Please let me know what you think: if you like it 🫶 or dislike it 👎.

My personal taste is I like very minimal CSS. This blog is modeled after Drew Devault’s blog. I largely removed dead CSS cruft and improved readability (i.e. line spacing) slightly.

404s

You might have noticed some pages were giving 404 – sorry about that.🙇

I had recently migrated this blog to deploy with GitHub actions. I didn’t realize that Jekyll uses the local Time Zone for when to process the dates for pages and seems to ignore the Time Zone information I put in the frontmatter.

Looks like there is an active issue jekyll#issue9278

GitHub actions’ machines use UTC, which makes total sense, but it changed a lot of the dates of my pages unbeknownst to me as I was previously publishing from my laptop which was set to Pacific Time Zone.

I’ve since rectified this issue by being explicit about my Time Zone for the whole site.
