Web and app developer. Coffee, beer, and running, in any order.
Turns out my recent upgrade to Django 5.2 was not, in fact, “without issue.” I had to patch a problem saving images with stored dimensions with django-resized.
I upgraded the site from Django 4.2 to 5.2 and only had to deal with two deprecation warnings along the way.
I deployed some changes to the site today:
Last week I deployed a change to how I generate plain text versions of content on my website. This week I changed it again. And updated additional post types to use Markdown as their editing and storage format.
My website went down a couple of days ago. Apparently Dreamhost had moved my VPS which broke my custom Python installation’s reference to the system ssl module. Reinstalling my Python version (and re-creating my site’s virtual environment) fixed it.
