Six Years of 0x32 (Where Did the Time Go?)

The first post on this blog went up on the 8th of August 2020, two sentences long:

Welcome to my new blog 0x32 started as I reach the age of 50.

That was six years ago. I genuinely had to check the git log twice, because it doesn’t feel like six years — it feels like I set this thing up a couple of years back at most. Where did the time go.

Blowing the Cobwebs Off This Blog with Claude Code

A Hugo repo hadn’t been looked at properly in a while

This blog is just Hugo content and a vendored theme — no app code, nothing exciting — which is exactly the kind of repo that quietly accumulates small rot nobody notices because nothing ever actually breaks the build. Spent a session pointing Claude Code at it to find and fix that rot.

Started with a straight status check: a couple of generated CSS cache files showing as deleted (build artifacts that shouldn’t have been tracked in the first place) and a stray uncommitted edit sitting inside the ananke theme submodule from as far back as November 2024. Both restored/reverted to get back to a clean tree before touching anything else.

Cascading Updates

Having been a bit lazy in not updating my Hugo version since I started which was recently breaking one of my Github actions, I decided do do that.

This lead to an cascading update cycle.

  • Updating Hugo version broke the theme I was using.
  • Updating the theme broke the Tweet shortcode, no longer on Twitter so edited those post which referenced my old Twitter account.
  • Updating the Hugo version, broke the Github Action which was building and uploaded to S3. This was due to newer versions of Hugo now having an “extended” and “with_deploy” versions.
  • Raised a PR against the Github action to update to use the “with_deploy” version.

Still a couple of deprecated warning and fixing background and social icon links to sort out but at least now running against the latest version of Hugo.

6502 Assembly Language

Been trying to relearn 6502 assembly language for fun, its a lot faster and easier than the first time on actual hardware when I was a teenager.

Been using a book I picked up from eBay Discovering BBC Micro Machine Code by A.P. Stephenson

Using BeebAsm assembler on my Mac with a BBC Micro emulator, rather than build in BBC BASIC one.

You can find my code at Github https://github.com/alastairhm/beebasm

This example draws a line of zeros to Mode 7, see screenshot below.

Short code for embedding Flickr albums easily. Here demonstrated with my Inkotober 2020 album.

Hugo Lbry Shortcode

One thing I like about Hugo is how easy it is to expand its functionality with your own code.

For example was able to create a shortcode to embed Lbry.tv videos into a post in around five minutes.

First I created an empty file layouts/shortcodes/lbry.html which I pasted the basic embed code take from the share button on one of their videos.

Share button

<iframe id="lbry-iframe" width="560" height="315" src="https://lbry.tv/$/embed/this-new-fedora-powered-thinkpad-p53-is/097106eb68aebc90b33d83bb053467af942a8e20" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Then parameterized this so that the src url can be changed.
