👋 Hello, world! My name is Brie Carranza. This is my personal digital garden. It's built using some of my favorite tools: Markdown files versioned in git, edited with vim and Obsidian (or with GitJournal on my phone), stored in a git repository on gitlab.com, deployed in a GitLab CI pipeline to GitLab Pages with MkDocs.

The site you are viewing is the version that is updated via repository mirroring and offered at🔖 bookmarks.brie.dev.

🔖 Favorite Articles and Pages -- around the Internet

• Just for fun. No, really.
  • I found this initially on HN and I 💖 love it! I am an enthusiastic person by nature. That enthusiasm can be diminished when it's not shared but that site serves as a great reminder that it's OK.
  • Is it worth writing about? (Probably!)
  • Redactle Unlimited a variant of Redactle, itself a variant of Wordle. Redactle Unlimited has a multiplayer mode that's lots of fun.
