#11ty images #
#til how to use @11ty/eleventy-img on this very blog. It'll slurp media from
elsewhere. Also, flickr makes it damn-near impossible to find the static links
to your pictures these days. More internet bitrot.

Clarifying "ballistics" #
Probably obvious to a lot of people, but given Israel's invasion of Lebanon, and Iran's "preparation" to launch ballistic missiles ostensibly to somewhere within Israel, I wondered "when is a missile not ballistic?". #til the answer is when it's a cruise missile. Ballistic missiles are delivered along (ahem) gravity's rainbow, and cruise missiles are unpiloted kamikaze jets.
devcontainers #
One of the things I've heard about, and chose to ignore. Encountered a
#devcontainer (.devcontainer) file after cloning a file, so #til what it actually
is. Seems like a pragma for operating an IDE within the context of a container,
so that one doesn't have to install all the stuff, e.g. black or prettier
or node.
soup beans #
A post elsewhere sent me on a journey learning about pellagra, salmon cakes and therefore #til what soup beans are.
