This notably introduces The TAME Programming Language Living Document,
and effort to begin to formalize the language I've been working on over
the past decade on-and-off for my employer.
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.

New post.

Rather than having Pandoc generate the id, which has the potential to change
over time and cause 404s, let's just generate the slug from the filename so
that the ids will never change. This also solves the awkward question of
what the filename should be, since it was previously something arbitrary.
This mass rename was accomplished via this simple shell script:
for p in *.meta; do
slug=$( recsel -P slug "$p" | xargs basename )
mv -v "${p/.meta/.md}" "${p:0:10}-$slug.md"
done
with minor manual tweaks where I saw fit. Of course, now I have some pretty
long filenames, which is undesirable.
The next step is to compare it with the slugs currently on mikegerwitz.com
and make them match. That's the next commit, and should be pretty simple.
I didn't originally intend for all of this to be in a single commit. But
here we are. I don't have the time to split these up more cleanly; this
project is taking more time than I originally hoped that it would.
This is a new static site generator. More information to follow in the
near future (hopefully in the form of an article), but repo2html is now
removed. See code comments for additional information; I tried to make it
suitable as a learning resource for others. It is essentially a set of
shell scripts with a fairly robust build for incremental generation.
The site has changed drastically, reflecting that its purpose has changed
over the years: it is now intended for publishing quality works (or at least
I hope), not just a braindump.
This retains most of the text of the original pages verbatim, with the
exception of the About page. Other pages may have their text modified in
commits that follow.
Enhancements to follow in future commits.
