Migrate content into grimoire
Backfill grimoire notes that are ready to go
Make a favicon
Get initial styling in place
Make a text only checklist that reads per line so you don't have to make js
Add code syntax highlighting
Default to using filenames for titles with the ability to override via 'title' in frontmatter if formatting needs to happen
Setup posts to have UUID as slug with arbitrary url behind so you can change text slugs
Make a espanso snippet for making a post frontmatter with a ksuid

Add KSUID for unique IDs of posts
Update output ksuids and redirects to all be lowercase for the urls
Pull in the RSS feed for the podcast to host it on the site instead of simplecast
Convert KSUIDs and redirects to lower case
Fix redirects to be all lower case
Add redirect where you can just use the ID of the post and have it bounce to the current page
Run a script to find all links and run stats on how many are dead for a given year, etc...

Under Consideration

Figure out why redirects aren't in place for everything (e.g. 20eMTNPwHx1B) - Probably it's just that it doesn't work in dev and only works on deploy, but see if you can get it working in dev
Find "tr.im" Urls and replace them
Change status markers in nvAlt post files from "unpublished", "scratch", "draft", "published" to "u", "s", "d", and "p" just so you have to type the words. Could also put a legend in the rest of the YAML to make sure you remember
Make sure all pages have canonacial IDs in their metadata
Move podcast data to a single JS file and use it to publish all the links, pages, etc...
Setup 'next', 'previous' links for the podcast
Figure out how to get redirects working on localhost
Finish cleaning up images and other old 'http' links
Make a separate render template for the podcast that you can format for it more directly
Setup local build deploy process instead of using netlify build
Get good OG image for the podcast
Figure out how simplecast sets up podcast episodes to play in twitter, etc...
Update all the grimoire files to make the ksuids in the files lowercase
Make and style a component for the podcast player
Setup 'title' in frontmatter as an array so you can do multiple lines
Create a 'subtitle' frontmatter key
Make a 'uses' page with details that include your mic settings in auditio
Build a script to auto-fix links that are just redirects
Get OG Images working better
Fix images
Style images
Post that fills up a TI99/4A size area in a random pattern with a random letter like the first thing you did with pop.
Add search to the site
Add responsive images
Build tool to format podcast transcripts
Build tool to automatically move changed files into place from grimoire to site (expect to still need/want to run full process for deployment to do redirects, etc...?)
Build a script that opens a random page that needs to be scrubbed
Make a /tv page that has a few channels that loops through talks and videos and maybe music?
Make a script to populate images from from: /__Cleaned/WCAU49878494-1TB-ext/_keep/alans/Backups/StimulatingPixels/blog/wp-content/uploads/ - e.g. 2009/01/last-fm-bs.png
Create a file at '/posts' maybe?
Convert http links to https - run a script to find them
Figure out what to do with the home page
Find legecy YouTube links and change them to the new component
Build a script that shows files without blurbs so you can add them
Setup 'li' in ReadOnlyChecklist to use more than just 'index' for the unique id since there may be more than one checklist on a page.
Figure out how you want to organize stuff...
Make a /tools page that has forms and links for various online tools
Build a Checklist component like ReadOnlyChecklist
Make a Message component to add messages at the top of the posts with their own format

Make a sitemap.xml file (assuming that's still a thing)
Make an RSS/Atom feed
Figure out what other files like robots.txt are used these days
Build a process that pulls files that need updates like 10 at a time into Sublime Text
Make the grimoire to site file mover only do files that have changed
Make custom code fence things somehow (see playgrounds link from the person who did css for cs)
Look at https://codesandbox.io/post/sandpack-announcement and https://github.com/agneym/playground
Find all the missing images and post/restore them
Add some type of curation to posts
Setup to clearedlist domains and auto publish On The Places I Goed - instead of manually editing the blocklist
