I publish my .project to the web and to Gopher and (recently) to Gemini. It's obviously also available over finger. HMU at finger insom@tilde.town ...

Here's the script I use to do it. I think it qualifies as "brutalist"-- all the rough edges that went into it are definitely showing.

#!/bin/bash
set -eu
cd
cp .project projects/$(date +%Y-%m-%d)
cp .project ~/.ttbp/entries/$(date +%Y%m%d.txt)
cat public_html/01_top.html .project \
  public_html/02_bottom.html > public_html/index.html
cd public_gemini
cp ../projects/* .
for i in *; do mv $i $i.gmi; done
for i in *; do ex $i < ../project-scr ; done
for i in *; do touch -d $(echo $i | cut -d. -f1) $i; done

And the vimscript in project-scr is:

:1i

.

:$a

.
:wq

All my actual projects recently have been in the physical world. I recently completed a ribbon microphone build and I am very happy with it. It's good enough to use for work, I think. (Pending a future update, where I talk about how badly using it for work went).
