Ideas for my dream blogging CMS - Matthew Haughey describes his ideal modern blogging CMS. It's a well thought out piece that takes into account interacting with the modern social media world, with the ability to write in one place, then publish to any target location or platform, connectivity to protocols like ActuvityPub, first class support for micro-content, a kick ass writer editor experience, lots of themes, import/export, syndication, support for things like linkblogs in the sidebar. Lots of interesting ideas in this post. Matthew was in the most recent Shop Talk Show where they discuss his post in detail. a.wholelottanothing.org #

Robust NodeJS Deployment Architecture - I created this writeup that pulled together what I'd learnt building and deploying my linkblig SaaS. I still think it's a pretty solid self hosted solution.

How a Jack Dorsey-backed bitcoin miner uses a volcano in Kenya to turn on the lights in rural homes - Jack has backed Gridless a company that has deployed several containers that house portable bitcoin mining farms, to Kenya, Malawi and Zambia. They work with local renewable energy companies making them cost effective since they soak up extra energy that would otherwise go to waste. It's a nice synergy that is having a big impact on local communities, many of which didn't previously have electricity. cnbc.com #
