Later on let me know how your local files look for --web upload. In principle, everything should work even if the articles already exist on server, it should just restructure everything to look exactly like your local output tree.
I'll check the homepage 500 issue. The more bugs found the better!
Also maybe some things to check (not that they are 100% bugs): 1) When viewing parent/children articles sometimes the dropdown menu doesn't work when clicked (the upside down triangle).
2) My idea is to one day allow storing undeletable post history as well, so that when you link to someone's permalink, it NEVER ever goes down. This is similar to what Wikipedia and Stack Overflow do. If this ever becomes a problem we can reconsider, but generally speaking storage is cheap and CPU-hours are relatively expensive.
My new article seemed awesome when I previewed it via the index.html file but when I uploaded it (with --web) the inheritance was broken. Maybe that's because the article already existed and I tried to push it again! Yes, that makes sense.
I'll have a look at what you mean when I can restore your homepage :-) Also, if you manage to push your .bigb files into a github repo, that might help debug/understand issues (even though ultimately I should be able to figure it out from db).
I feel kind of bad for all the requests that I am making, I should preview my stuff before committing it.
Not at all, if anything comes up feel free to immediately comment without too much thinking. Because I have basically no users besides myself, any feedback is extremely valuable in guiding what I should do next.
Yes, give it a try and let me know if you face any issues. I want both to be amazing, but perhaps cli is a bit better now for those who can use it. Give the Visual Code Extension a try.
The equals sign space: = would generate a header, but you can't create headers directly on the web editor. You should instead create new sections by just creating new articles with the New button. Then you set the parent to the other article as shown at: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQRjLyqILl0 Note that the UI changed slightly from that older video, the parent selection is now under the "metadata" tab in the editor.
If you find any other issues or have any doubts do let me know and I'll try to fix/reply ASAP. This serious editor bug was there because I use mostly local editing, but I want the editor to work perfectly as well.
Golden was of interest, thanks for mentioning it. It also had much less strict notability guidelines than wikipedia which is another serious issue with the platform. Unfortunately they shutdown signup got merged into another financial intellicence thing: Section "Golden (wiki, 2019)".
But a PhD with the intention of doing something cool next not necessarily in academia like working in a research department or trying to create a startup is not so bad I'd say. But you have to find a good one of course.
I agree you should do something because it is cool. It's just that to me something can only be cool if "it is fucking revolutionary". Though perhaps OurBigBook is a notable counter example lol
OK, computer architecture I imagine based on LinkedIn. Why are young people investing that in 2024 I don't understand, haven't you guys heard of something called "the end of Moore's law"?
Hello! I don't understand! A good Master's degree or PhD that you like and can afford would generally improve your chances of doing something interesting in life later on.
