imagine being able to upload images to a blog
using ActiveStorage it’s kind of not even a thing? i drag a file on to the browser and send a form and it just goes into the database? like this frog on a unicycle:
that’s stored in Postgres as a Large Object, isn’t that neat
i added dragging in markdown files to save them as posts a while back. soon i’ll be able to drag an entire folder of things, like the markdown export of a Bear note with its image files, or a TextBundle (which is the exact same thing) and it’ll upload everything and submit the markdown files. it’s like half an hour away from being able to do that but it’s eleven so
this blog is an open source rails app: https://github.com/apaleslimghost/ghost-computer. maybe you’ll find the secret log in button

this isn’t some countercultural reverse bandwagon hipster thing, it’s the anthropic principle
