I had a realization the other day that, on almost every email in my inbox, my mail client has a "show external images" option. Most email I receive references externally loaded images via HTML. There are good reasons for this (not needing to send a copy of an image in every email on a newsletter) as well as nefarious reasons (the remote server can track where/when you load the image). So most mail clients I've used don't load them by default for obvious privacy reasons.

I've gotten some work done towards supporting persistence in guile-horton over the last week or so, but I've hit a bit of a roadblock. Writing this up in part to explain what I've been working on and in part to think through it some more.

I've got tags for all my blog posts, and tag-specific RSS feeds, but until now those tags/feeds haven't actually been visible unless you constructed the URL. So finally fixing that: now there's a list of tags at the top of each post, with a link to the tag-specific feed.

Starting December Adventure off with a little meta this year (and a bit late, whoops!). Since setting up this blog, it's always felt like a little too much friction to start a new blog post. It's not too bad, but it does involve creating a file in the posts directory with a given name, manually typing out the timestamp.
