# Miscellanea for 2025-06-17

- Hello world!
- It continues to be kind of a perfect storm to bring a halt to my recent rapid-fire blogging. 😔
	- I'm pitching in on two teams at work, which really cuts down on time to stop and smell the RSS feeds to find things to write about.
	- Even though I'm doing a lot of LLM-assisted coding lately, I'm doing it for more projects than usual.
	- But also, my homebrew RSS feed reader just broke and I've been too busy to fix it. So, I haven't been, you know, reading feeds much lately.
- I did just [reopen the books](https://github.com/lmorchard/pebbling-club/pull/239) on this Pebbling Club side project I've had going off & on since last summer. So maybe I'll resume progress on that too?
	- One of the things I did was to get this thing working on a more mundane stack with redis and postgresql, deployed via docker-compose on a server in my basement.
	- And then I wrote [this post-receive git hook that enables a git-push deploy process](https://github.com/lmorchard/pebbling-club/blob/main/docker/compose/post-receive) like I'm running a real PaaS next to my water heater.
- At some point, I need to sit down and actually write out a pitch or something for [Pebbling Club](https://github.com/lmorchard/pebbling-club). I'd like to make it into something, but the gears of time and motivation keep slipping.
	- It's kind of a mashup of everything I've been interested in building on the web for a very long time.
	- It's also currently a big mess.
	- I did make this sorta mind-map in an Obsidian canvas to try to sketch out the general aspirational concept though: [![[attachments/2025-06-17-pebbling-club-mindmap.png]]](https://blog.lmorchard.com/2025/06/17/miscellanea/attachments/2025-06-17-pebbling-club-mindmap.png)
- I need to work out a better way to post diagrams here. I've been meaning to do something with Mermaid and a web component, but... yeah.
