Making a Random Blog Post to Ruin My Standards and Minimize My Perfectionism

So, after writing a blog post on my tildelog, I realized that I had quite a high standard for my main website's blog posts.

So I created this blog post to ruin that high standard and make it a lower standard.

Now, other things.

vore over tor

vore is the RSS/Atom feed reader I use. I wanted to make it use Tor for fetching the feeds, as I've been already doing that before but in Thunderbird.

I went down a lot of deep holes (not rabbit holes), and found that with Go, you can just specify HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY in the environment variables for proxying HTTP and HTTPS requests respectively.

I've also finally figured out how to workaround Go complaining about url.URL being invalid despite importing net/url. It's create another function but with an actual name, so that http.Transport accepts it, while Go also accepts to compile the code.

I don't know, maybe inline functions are weird when you're trying to return multiple values.

That's all, really. I don't know what else to write, so I'm just gonna publish it now.
