Hi, not sure if this is expected, but it seems like noyaml.com is no longer working:

$ curl https://noyaml.com
Not Found

Hi

This isn't an issue as such, but I really love the waving octocat in the corner, but your code doesn't have a license so I don't want to include it in my code if you don't want me to. Am I ok to do this?

Thanks

After all that, I still don't know how to replace YAML. Using structs et al. is not always possible. For example, when building a CLI, it may make sense to handle configuration by having a single YAML file open in vim instead of having a complex system of nested configuration subcommands.

Would it make sense to add a section with some alternatives to YAML (and how they are better)?

Why are you willing to go through such a pain of embedding an editor just for a horrible user experience (especially on mobile)? I hate your site more than I hate editing GitHub Workflow files. This fact alone make your rant loses its merit. Stop it! Just use a site generator!

Hi 👋

Big fan of your website! If I may, I'd like to suggest adding an Open Graph image. While the domain name is already pretty clear, such a preview image provides even more opportunity to quickly get the point across and/or tease people into visiting the site.

Example:

For reference, here's how I implemented it in one of my websites: https://gitlab.com/dAnjou/zen-of-coding/-/tree/master/public/1. Google Chat shows it like this:

I'm the author of this library which was inspired by most of the same issues which inspired this website - for example the Norway problem. The overriding goal was to make it type-safe, which it is.

It doesn't solve 100% of the issues raised, and I still think that there are certain things it shouldn't ever be used for - e.g. deployment pipelines or anything else resembling a programming language, but it's 90% of the way there (still missing a nice, simple spec - one day I will get around to that).

I saw somebody mention it in one of the other issues and I was wondering if you'd be open to some sort of reference to it in the page or if it would spoil the one overriding message of avoiding YAML at all possible costs :)

When I correct NO from:

NI: Nicaragua
NL: Netherlands
NO: Norway # 💣!

to

NI: Nicaragua
NL: Netherlands
"NO": Norway # 💣!

(after reading that paragraph)

…please trigger some fun thing. Like ghost/magic writing "Yes, exactly like that."
…or a popup "smart ass"…
…or "You really needed to try that now, did not you?"

In the alternative options and approaches to devops does not work

Working with a project where 99% of the config are YAML but there's that one pesky YML because why restrict yourelf to a file extension when you could randomply alternate just because 3 letters are haster to type than 4 and play Roussian Roulette.

Extra flex: have both a yml and yaml file with the same name and take bets which gets used :)

(Good luck debugging that)
