working on the site

(note to self)

• Run bin/serve to generate (and watch for changes then recompile)
• visit http://localhost:1234

publishing a new post

• run bin/new my great post to create a draft file.
• run bin/publish _drafts/my-great-post.md to move that file into the _posts directory and add the current timestamp

adding a podcast episode

• record and export an mp3 (the feed assumes mp3)
• upload it to s3, make public, copy the URL
• add a file to _metaphorloop_episodes named, e.g. 4.md for episode 4
• required attributes in the header:
  • title
  • summary
  • date
  • audio_url
  • number_of_bytes -- actually count the bytes of the audio file, e.g. 4000000
