A text file only contains data that represents characters on the screen, while “binary file” is used to refer to any other file that isn’t meant to be viewed or edited as text.
If you open a (small) image file with notepad you will see a lot of gibberish. This is what happens when you try to view a binary (in other words, non-text) file as text.
My advice as a fellow long-time Apache user who also went deep into nginx would be to look into Caddy.
For me, the main draw to nginx was powerful (web) proxying, static file performance and simpler configs - Caddy does all of that 10x. In a sense, nginx is right in between Apache and Caddy, so unless I need to proxy something obscure like RTMP or email, I rarely have a use for it these days.
Indeed. I never got comfortable with Apache after 15 years of administering Linux systems. Configuring Apache is like setting up Postfix or Sendmail: it does not spark joy. NGINX was initially interesting, nowadays still requires a ton of boilerplate, and does everything and the kitchen sink. Lighttpd almost went the way of the dodo for similar reason I suspect.
HTTP is not new technology, nor rocket science, a web server to serve a simple HTML page should be configurable from scratch, from an empty .conf file, in seconds.
But vendors are already providing a (somewhat) standard way of displaying that content through regular notifications. If I were to build a unified inbox like this, it would look more or less like a persistent view of the notifications panel from Android.
This is exactly what I was thinking. But notifications panel doesn't work for the use-case where OP wants to just check in on content that may not have been triggered by a notification.
I have not tried this with Obsidian yet, but I know that Markdeep allows you to render .md files on the fly as HTML by appending some javascript to the unmodified markdown.
Essentially after the great recession graduates starting flocking to traditional 'secure' careers. For Arts students there weren't many options, so a ton of English, History etc grads moved into law as it was seen as a secure career. This lead to an over supply which skewed salaries into a heavy bimodal distribution. The top lawyers still get the big bucks but for the average lawyer it's not particularly great anymore. In the UK I here £30-35k bandied about outside of London. Not a bad wage by any means but considering the hours and education required it's no longer the secure path to a middle class lifestyle that it was.
I think this is one of the few aspects where tumblr is more logical than other social networks, by using a subdomain for each user instead of the path.
I think reddit accepts this too to some extent - for example, programming.reddit.com will redirect you to reddit.com/r/programming.
They have magnet stickers you attach to the back of any keyboard (or mouse) and it'll work. My keyboard is kinda heavy so it needed like 10 magnets attached to it, but it's completely stable.
That said, for lying down, you really want a trackball mouse (the alternative is to dock the mouse when not in use, which is OK if you mostly use the keyboard for everything).
