Writing is done in Vim and then published using a variety of free software.

Luxagraf is created primarily by hand, with a lot of tools loosely joined. Most of these tools are free software that you too can use and modify as you see fit. Without these amazing tools I wouldn't be able to do this -- many thanks to the people who created and maintain them. - -[GeoDjango framework][geo] -- Behind the scenes this handles a few things, like geographic queries and putting everything on a map. If you have any interest in working with geographic data, this is by far the best tool I've used. - -[Python][py] -- GeoDjango of course depends on Python, which in turn runs on my [Linux server](http://www.debian.org/) hosted by [Digital Ocean](https://www.digitalocean.com/). [Nginx](http://nginx.org/) serves the flat HTML files you're looking at here. - -[OpenStreetMap][osm] -- I use OpenStreetMap data for all the maps on this site. OpenStreetMap is like the Wikipedia of maps, except that it isn't wrong half the time. Whenever I feel skeptical about the so-called collective power of people on the internet, I remember OpenStreetMap and feel a little better. - -[Leaflet.js][leaf] -- This is the JavaScript Library that makes it really easy to load all the pretty maps you see on luxagraf. The map tiles themselves were developed by a company call ESRI and are credited with links on the various maps. - -[Vim][vim] -- The text editor I used to type up most things, including these words right now. - -The site validates as HTML5 and uses something the kids call responsive web design. I may or may not have written an entire [book on responsive web design](http://longhandpixels.net/books/responsive-web-design). - -Luxagraf should work in every web browser. If you have trouble, or see something that just doesn't seem right, please [let me know](/contact). - -## Photography - -Currently photos are taken with a Panasonic GF1. This is hands down the best digital camera I have ever used and second only to my old Nikon F3. In the past I have used a Panasonic LX2 and a Canon S45. - -Minimal photo processing is done with either Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop on OS X or Darktable and GIMP on Linux. - -The [photo gallery layout][gal] was inspired by the lovely (and now defunct) [Pictory][pic] photo showcase. Also note that while the writing is copyrighted to me, the photos are licensed under a Creative Commons [attribution, share-alike license][lic], which means you're free to use them so long as you attribute them to me. - -[geo]: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/gis/ "Geodjango: a world-class geographic web framework" -[pic]: http://www.pictorymag.com/ "Pictory Mag" -[lic]: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ "Creative Commons: Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported" -[twi]: http://twitter.com/lagsolo "@lagsolo on Twitter" -[img]: http://luxagraf.net/media/img/bio.jpg -[leaf]: http://leafletjs.com/ -[osm]: http://www.openstreetmap.org/ -[py]: https://www.python.org/ -[vim]: http://www.vim.org/ -[gal]: /photos/ diff --git a/_pages/babyvideos.txt b/_pages/babyvideos.txt deleted file mode 100644 index 949e1ec..0000000 --- a/_pages/babyvideos.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,27 +0,0 @@ ---- -title: Videos of Lilah and Olivia -slug: /babyvideos -meta_description: '' -include_in_sitemap: False -template: babyvideos ---- - -<div class="vidwrap"><video controls> - <source src="http://images.luxagraf.net/videos/oliviawalking.mp4" type='video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2"'> - <source src="http://images.luxagraf.net/videos/oliviawalking.webm" type='video/webm; codecs="vp8, vorbis"' /> -</video></div> - -<div class="vidwrap"><video controls> - <source src="http://images.luxagraf.net/videos/lilah1.mp4" type='video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2"'> - <source src="http://images.luxagraf.net/videos/lilah1.webm" type='video/webm; codecs="vp8, vorbis"' /> -</video></div> - -<div class="vidwrap"><video controls> - <source src="http://images.luxagraf.net/videos/oliviaplayinginsand.mp4" type='video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2"'> - <source src="http://images.luxagraf.net/videos/oliviaplayinginsand.webm" type='video/webm; codecs="vp8, vorbis"' /> -</video></div> - -<div class="vidwrap"><video controls> - <source src="http://images.luxagraf.net/videos/lilahtastingsand.mp4" type='video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2"'> - <source src="http://images.luxagraf.net/videos/lilahtastingsand.webm" type='video/webm; codecs="vp8, vorbis"' /> -</video></div> diff --git a/_pages/blogroll.txt b/_pages/blogroll.txt deleted file mode 100644 index e7c4a86..0000000 --- a/_pages/blogroll.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,57 +0,0 @@ ---- -title: Similar Sites and Things I Read -slug: /blogroll -meta_description: "Remember when everyone had a 'blogroll' and that was how your discovered other cool sites?

It's shame that got lost somewhere along the way. I think it's still an awesome way to discover new sites. Here are some of the people that enrich my world. - -### Travel Writing - -Personally I don't care about destination reviews. I refuse to visit sites that stoop to *Top X about Y* headlines and I don't really care who paid for you to go visit Cancun and *wasn't the food at the resort just delightful*? Life is too brief to waste your time reading that sort of crap. - -Which of course means I don't follow many travel blogs. Here is my list of travel websites that don't suck: - -* [Notes From the Road](http://www.notesfromtheroad.com/) -- If you only click one link in this list, make it this one. - -* [Inhab.it](http://inhab.it/) -- I can't remember how I found inhab.it (I think we have a mutual friend maybe?) but I'm glad I did. Click this one too. - -* [Vagabond Journey](http://www.vagabondjourney.com/) -- I first started [following Wade Shepard's site](http://www.vagablogging.net/the-future-of-vagabonding-and-long-term-travel.html) back when I was [editing Rolf Potts' Vagablogging.net](http://www.vagablogging.net/vagablogging-alumni.html). If my math is right, Wade has been traveling continuously for over 15 years now. There is not much about travel that he has not figured out. - -* [Expeditionary Art](http://expeditionaryart.com/) -- I love this site and am wildly jealous of the amazing artistic talent on display here. - -* [Idlewords](http://idlewords.com/) -- Maciej Cegłowski runs [Pinboard.in](https://pinboard.in/) (which I love) and writes some of the longest, best travel pieces you'll find on the web. He also gives [great](http://idlewords.com/bt14.htm) [talks](https://static.pinboard.in/webstock_2014.htm). We share a [strong dislike](http://idlewords.com/2005/04/dabblers_and_blowhards.htm) of [the pompous ass that is Paul Graham](https://luxagraf.net/jrnl/2004/10/art-essay). - -* [Expert Vagabond](http://expertvagabond.com/) -- Most travel blogs are utter crap, this one is not. Mathew is a talented photographer, good writer and has something all too rare in traveler's these days -- a sense of adventure. - -* [Adventure Journal](http://www.adventure-journal.com/) -- One of two magazine-style travel sites I follow. As with anything collaborative it's hit or miss, but there are some great essays for travelers, naturalists and adventurers. -{^ .list--indented } - -### Living Frugally - -Please do not mistake frugal for cheap. There's a reason he was the Frugal Gourmet, not the cheap gourmet. Cheap people have no soul, don't be one. - -* [Early Retirement Extreme]() -- Jacob Fisker stopped blogging a while ago, but everything he wrote remains good advice for anyone looking to extract themeselves from the consumer mindset. - -* [Mr Money Mustache]() -- Subscribe. Learn. Consume less, produce more. Retire if you want, travel if you want. -{^ .list--indented } - -### Photography - -I wouldn't join Instagram if you paid me and Flickr is a shell of it's former self, which makes it a little hard to find good photographers. If you're looking for great travel photos be sure to follow both Notes from the Road and Expert Vagabond. Other photo-related sites I follow: - -[Traveler](http://traveler.collin-hughes.com/journal/) -- Collin Hughes is primarily a fashion photographer, which means he travels a lot. The site is not updated very frequently, but Traveler is full of fantastic portraits of people and places around the world. - -[Shakas and Single Fins](http://shakasandsinglefins.com/) -- Ryan Tatar's photos make me want to drop everything and just go surfing. And I haven't surfed since I was 15. His work also sometimes turns up in the aforementioned [Adventure Journal](http://www.adventure-journal.com/). -{^ .list--indented } - -### Living Well - -I'm not quite sure how to describe David Cain's blog so I just gave it it's own category. It's nearly always interesting and manages to be genuinely helpful in ways that transcend the genre that's always in danger of swallowing the things it contains. Anyway, read [Rapititude](http://www.raptitude.com/), you might like it. - -### Sketches and Artwork - -* [Molly Crabapple](http://mollycrabapple.com/sketchbook/) -- I can't remember how I first heard of this one, but I love her sketches. diff --git a/_pages/contact.txt b/_pages/contact.txt deleted file mode 100644 index b760c54..0000000 --- a/_pages/contact.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,27 +0,0 @@ ---- -title: Contact Luxagraf -slug: /contact -meta_description: 'How to get in touch with me.' -include_in_sitemap: True -template: page ---- - -I'd love to hear what you think about the posts on luxagraf.
