src/post2meta: gensub argument fix
Older versions of Gawk did not mind an empty string as the third
argument, but newer versions complain:

Better figure styling
Figures will have margins on the left and right sides by default, unless
explicitly denoted "inline".  The caption will also be a lighter typeface
rather than bold.  When the figure caption appears at the bottom, it will
have a top border.

src/post2html: Ability to reference content of previous fence
I'll be using this to show example HTML code and then output it as actual
HTML to be rendered as part of the article.  Otherwise the HMTL has to be
duplicated and maintained in multiple places.

An alternative is to include a file, but that is much less convenient for
smaller snippets.

src/post2html (prefmt): Ties and newline stripping
I hate Markdown as a format for disciplined writing, especially when I want
macros (mostly semantic), indexes, and such.  I was originally going to use
LaTeX with Pandoc, but it lacks support for inline HTML and such, and I do
not want to distract too much from the work that I want to be doing.

GNU Social -> Mastodon link in header
Over the past year, my GNU Social timeline has gone almost completely
silent; it seems that many people have moved to Mastodon and maybe those
instances have stopped federating.

Further, GNU Social development has been stalled for a long time.

So this seems like an inevitable decision to give Mastodon a try.  I'll
start by following people and will post both on here and GNU Social
initially.  See https://social.mikegerwitz.com.

This better describes my experience and responsibilities, though I have
never been particularly comfortable with the term.  My manager describes me
as an engineer in my current position anyway.

Add LP2019 talk cs4m video link
Was finally published.  This year they included the slides in the video,
which is perfect, since this was a technical talk that used the slides to
demonstrate the commands, and I actually did some stuff on the computer
during the talk.

Though the PIP did slightly cut off some commands; see the PDF or Org
sources for the full commands.

lp2019 post: Update abstract
It had to be shortened to 100 words.  This also more accurately reflects what
I will be talking about; it will be a slower pace than I had originally anticipated,
and will focus a bit more on some core philosophical concepts.  But it will still
be interesting to both hackers and non-technical users.

rss: Fix header link and redirect broken links
I noticed a lot of odd `/rss.xml' requests in my 404 log.  As it turns out,
it was my fault.  This both fixes it and adds a redirect in case someone
tries to do this manually.  I suppose that'd be convenient.

post: GHCQ's Exceptional Access
Wow.  I had wanted to spend less than an hour on a response, and instead I
wound up writing my largest article since the NSA revelations and
GHS.  Hopefully others find this useful.

I've been sitting on this for weeks because I didn't have the time to finish
final proofreading and changes.  I need to release this before I sit on it
for another couple; I have to start working on my LP2019 talk soon.

rss: Clarify that RSS content is the abstract
I'm still debating whether to include the full text of the post within the

busy/lazy to do final editing).

css: Prevent preload inline from overriding stylesheet
The inlined CSS intended to make the stylesheet applicaton less jarring on
slow connections was placed _after_ `style.css', which was causing it to
take precedence over the mobile layout.  Silly mistake, and not good.  And
it went unnoticed for too long; I didn't visit my own website on mobile for
a bit.

Sorry, mobile people!

* src/header.tpl.htm (head): Move style.css link below inline style.

style.css: Better delimit sections and mute footnotes
This increases the headings, gives them slightly larger margins, decreases
the font size for footnotes, decreases the line-height, and lightens the
weight of the font.  I think this makes it easier to eyeball the different
sections (especially in the article I will be publishing shortly), and
further helps to emphasize that the footnotes are subservient to the text.

Generate inline CSS for page header
The idea here is to provide as little CSS as is sensible for the initial
page load to be styled in a layout similar to the final layout.  This
initial styling may be briefly visible on a slow conection.

Slow connections can happen for a variety of reasons.  For example, I'm a
Tor user, and connection speeds vary.  Mobile connection speeds can also
vary wildly.

This adds a few hundred bytes, but I was able to cut it down quite a bit,
and I don't find this to be unreasonable relative to the other data on
each page.

This is the maximum width of the posts page.  It does not look good to
have the header span the whole page on a 4K monitor.

I only noticed this issue because my work computer has IE11 installed.  I will not be

Of couse, I recomend using a free/libre browser.
