The entry said to measure first and put the number in the commit, so: a plain page
renders in 14µs, a twelve-picture gallery in 1.23ms. Of that, ~102µs per picture
was reading, hashing and decoding bytes the previous request had already read.
Remembering that one fact — keyed by path, size and modification time — brings the
same gallery to 63µs. 19.5× faster, 21× fewer bytes allocated, twenty-odd lines.
After which nothing is slow enough to justify caching whole pages, so ADR-0044
declines the page cache and leaves the parked validity model parked, now with a
measurement rather than an intuition behind its trigger.
That parked model has five axes and was written before any code existed. The
problem it would have been built for turned out to be one repeated file read.
Benchmarks live in internal/web so they measure through the real handler, which is
also what conventions.md wants before any cache goes in the render path. The
invalidation risk has its own test: an edited picture is a different key, so the
memo cannot serve yesterday's dimensions. Everything runs clean under -race, since
the map is read by concurrent requests.
The human asked for YAML site config alongside the -base flag, which is the
trigger the parked settings cascade was waiting for — but only for its top level.
So this adopts the site level and leaves section and bundle resolution parked,
with their trigger unchanged: the first section-level override with a reader.
The parked idea now says so, rather than reading as untouched.
Absolute URLs are the forcing function. A canonical link, an hreflang, an
OpenGraph tag and a sitemap entry all need the site's own origin, which the engine
cannot infer from a request it may be serving behind any proxy.
Precedence stated in the ADR: -base beats the file, so a staging host needs no
edit to content.
The queue said to re-adopt the taxonomy decision when tags landed and I did not,
so ideas/deferred-decisions.md claimed no tag pages existed while /tags/ had been
serving for two commits. ADR-0032 records what the code actually does; only the
feed half stays deferred, and it lands with declared types since feed membership is
part of a type declaration.
Folded from a separate state commit:
state: bump verified-against; narrow the declared-types trigger
Sequences do not need a type declaration — membership and ordering come from
frontmatter — so the trigger for declared types is feeds or check, whichever lands
first.
Twenty-seven ADRs existed before a line of Go. Five specified the shape of
unbuilt mechanisms — cache validity, declared types, the settings cascade,
taxonomies, extras — which breaks the rule against abstraction before a
second concrete use, in prose where the counters cannot see it. They move to
ideas/deferred-decisions.md as recorded intent and return shaped by whatever
implements them.
Citations retargeted throughout; where one was decoration the rule now stands
on its own reasoning. Type declarations and the cascade drop to [spec] with
the MVP behaviour stated instead, so the first prompts have less to build.
conventions.md names http.ServeMux as the router, closing a hole that invited
hand-rolling a path splitter. The ADR gate now checks a number is registered
in the log rather than headed by an entry, so withdrawals resolve and invented
numbers still fail. Two architecture invariants corrected: identity no longer
implies a required language suffix, and the duplicated permalink clause is gone.
