Friday morning code tweak

Sometimes I accidentally save articles from my RSS reader without meaning to. Which means they get captured in the end of day automated post. So, I will go in and remove these errant posts.

And this morning I realized that when I do so, the post gets its HTML stripped out. Which is a bigger issue, but it also made me realize the automated posts inserted HTML rather than markdown text as it should. Old habits die hard I suppose.

So a quick bit of adjusting code and they should now be inserting Markdown properly. I still need to fix the editor stripping HTML, for correctness sake, though it shouldn't be an issue really.

Puget Sound War

I've lived here for 11 years but never heard this discussed. Not surprising, but it drives home for me that we only educate children (presumably) in this sort of history. I ended up looking it up because I saw a questionable map of "all battles in the last 4500 years" which included dots in the Pacific Northwest, and I decided to go look it up.

The Puget Sound War was an armed conflict that took place in the Puget Sound area of the state of Washington in 1855–56, between the United States military, local militias and members of the Native American tribes of the Nisqually, Muckleshoot, Puyallup, and Klickitat. Another component of the war, however, were raiders from the Haida and Tlingit who came into conflict with the United States Navy during contemporaneous raids on the native peoples of Puget Sound.
