Discography
gollark: I use pastebin extensively for the ***EXTREME PROGRAMMING*** methodology of potatOS, but it has problems and I do not think it is suited to websites.
gollark: Ah, but I would have to manually update every single paste my website consists of if I edit the templates.
gollark: It would be a hassle to open it. And then I probably couldn't do links, or split stuff into multiple files, or use a nice static site generator.
gollark: I have interactive programming projects and such.
gollark: My site uses JS extensively, but the non-interactive stuff all works without it.
