Updating DNS Records# This was a fairly straightforward process:
Log into GitHub > Go to your public repo > Settings > Pages: and enter your domain in the Custom Domain section Add your domain name www.wesgould.com Log into your DNS provider. Delete CNAME / A-RECORDs for www.wesgould.com and wesgould.com to avoid conflicts with the new records. ADD CNAME RECORD for www.wesgould.com. Add A-RECORD for wesgould.com. To create A records, point your apex domain to the IP addresses for GitHub Pages: - 185.

Why Switch from Publii to Hugo?# I am switching from Publii to Hugo because I wanted to take advantage of the text notes I was already taking with Vimwiki for my various projects. The Publii interface was nice, but I’m already writing notes in a format that doesn’t require me to use their WYSIWYG editor. I know that seems lazy, but it’s an extra step that caused just enough friction that I wouldn’t update the blog.
Creating an NFS share# If you are trying to share between *nix systems, the Network File Servers (NFS) are really easy to set up. Note: If you are planning on sharing with Windows machines, SMB/Samba is a better option.
It should also be noted that NFS doesn’t restrict, by default, to individual users. It limits to IPs and IP ranges–which makes it ideal for secure networks, but less-than-ideal for non-secure / public networks.

Turkey Trot 2k19# Date: November 28, 2019
The family decided to go to a Turkey Trot before we ate Thanksgiving dinner. I bet my niece $1 that I would run it in under 40 minutes. I got < 33 minutes (unofficially—the times aren’t posted yet).
About 900 people signed up for this particular 5k!
The 2nd prize was a huge pie (and a $50 Dick’s gift card, but you can’t eat that so it’s less important).
