Fail hard

You should use git

Okay, hear me out. This entry will be really short. I've failed hard. After writing an ~5k characters article with code snippets etc.. I've overwritten it with with bad emacs shortcut. Yep, you heard me.

Lessons learned:

• configure autosave to trigger it more often

What changed

I have minimally working ball of mud, which allows me to display this article mostly as a HTML. There are quirks here and there, like not all links being displayed properly, but hey. Its something.

I've decided to add metadata header to each markdown made document. It allows me to reference other documents (when building navigation tree) or pass some article specific info (like when it was posted).

At the same time I've stumbled upon common pitfall.
