Reminiscing this and that, on the web since 1994.

I’ve had a light and a dark theme on this site since I switch from python
to rust.
But until now I have only used css @media selection to enable the
dark theme, so it hasn’t been very discoverable.
If you have a browser that supports the prefers-color-scheme query and
you have found that setting and enabled dark mode, you have seen this site
in the dark theme (and may not know that it had a light theme), otherwise you have
seen the site in the light theme (and not known about the dark).
So now this site have a theme
button in the header.
By clicking it you toggle between the device default
, dark
and light
theme.
The default is the device default
, which is the same as before I
introduced the button, either dark or light based on browser preference.
So people who have made an active choise in their browser get that choise on
this site automatically.

Sometimes I want to embed a video on my site.
Most of the videos I want to embed are on youtube.
Klicking share
on a video and choosing embed, I get a bunch of html
code I can copy into a post.
Something like this, for example:
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/3St1CoH1rKU"
title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0"
allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture"
allowfullscreen>
</iframe>
That’s very easy.
The downside is that youtube gets a request for the iframe (and a
bunch of stuff it loads from there) every time someone looks at my
page, which makes it possible for them to track you, my reader, across
my site and other sites that includes videos.

I have written a new blog software again! The previous one was named
r5, as in Rasmus (5 letters omitted).
The new one is written in Rust (.rs source files), so it was natural
to call it r4s, also as in Rasmus (but
with only 4 letters omitted 😎).
Now let’s see if having a new shiny project for my blog engine makes
me write more posts.
The style is inspired by Hamonshu by Eric
Meyer and
his technique for Pseudo-Randomly Adding Illustrations with
CSS,
but with art and type that feels more me
