Wow, it’s been a long time since I blogged anything. Blogging turns out to be one of those things that is easy to keep not doing, but over time I found out that I missed it. So I decided to try and do it again.

A large part of why I haven’t blogged in a while is that the blog’s been busted. The latest version of Ubuntu LTS broke the versions of ruby powering everything. Recovery might have been possible, but this seemed like a good time to move on from infrastructure as a pet to infrastructure as livestock. Well, at least, livestock on a small family farm.

I’ve been really lucky that I’ve never had to join a company that I didn’t really want to be at. I had high hopes that Point Digital Finance (Point) would be a company where I would stay for a while. For a long while that seemed like a distinct possibilty.

I keep finding myself re-remembering that everything is a moving target. It’s been a very long time since I’ve worked with straight CSS, only using it abstracted out through SASS or React. So I’ve missed most of the major enhancements to the spec and there’s much that can be done without a framework now.

I’ve been toying around with a little side project to learn Svelte. I feel like I’ve been getting a good handle on the basics of the framework and I’ll write more about my impressions in a future post. What I want to talk about here is setting up a unit testing framework.
