The cost to the build time is enormous though, previously it was about 2 minutes, but having to move away from GitHub’s default simple pages deployment process to an actions based deploy action in order to control the copy of the markdown it actually reduced to about 45 seconds. The webmention functionality has added about 3 minutes despite some aggressive throttling… such that I only look for mentions for posts published more recently.
throttle_lookups:
last_week: daily
last_month: weekly
last_year: monthly
older: monthly
Thanks to the following resources for the documentation and inspiration.

Chromium has officially deprecated XSLT, including the XSLTProcessor JavaScript API and the XSLT processing instruction. We intend to remove support from version 158 (November 17, 2026). The Firefox and WebKit projects have also indicated plans to remove XSLT from their browser engines.

_config.yml and a _ways folder to my repo and ensuring it’s included in the build. I have essentially added a different post type. Those familiar with WordPress will understand what this means. Effectively a new taxonomy for other content types.
It’s really easy in Jekyll as it’s just yaml config and files.
I now have 3 post types.
Ways are a how-to guide on various topics. They link to online manuals where they exist, and typically have numbered list of steps to follow such as fixing my Apple TV remote volume when it disconnects randomly, how to connect my Bluetooth mouse and my backup Bluetooth mouse, how to run my site locally and that sort of thing.
With my health and disability issues this is my go to place as my memory and cognitive function worsens.

In game theory, the centipede game, first introduced by Robert Rosenthal in 1981, is an extensive form game in which two players take turns choosing either to take a slightly larger share of an increasing pot, or to pass the pot to the other player.
The payoffs are arranged so that if one passes the pot to one’s opponent and the opponent takes the pot on the next round, one receives slightly less than if one had taken the pot on this round, but after an additional switch the potential payoff will be higher.
Therefore, although at each round a player has an incentive to take the pot, it would be better for them to wait. Although the traditional centipede game had a limit of 100 rounds (hence the name), any game with this structure but a different number of rounds is also called a centipede game.
The unique sub-game perfect equilibrium and every Nash equilibrium of these games results in the first player taking the pot on the first round of the game; however, in empirical tests, relatively few players do so, and as a result, achieve a higher payoff than in the subgame perfect and Nash equilibria. These results are taken to show that subgame perfect equilibria and Nash equilibria fail to predict human play in some circumstances. The Centipede game is commonly used in introductory game theory courses…

The XY problem is asking about your attempted solution rather than your actual problem. This leads to enormous amounts of wasted time and energy, both on the part of people asking for help, and on the part of those providing help.
The problem occurs when people get stuck on what they believe is the solution and are unable step back and explain the issue in full.
Remember that if your diagnostic theories were accurate, you wouldn’t be asking for help right?
