I usually try to have one module per template (with matching name), and to keep inter-module dependencies as limited as possible. Anything more complicated can go in an extension. {{post footer}}" current

I found out about an interesting podcast about backups (well, I've not listened to much of it yet, so I don't know if it's interesting). Makes me want to switch back to rsync.net (it's been quite a few years since I used it last). https://soundcloud.com/restoreitall/zfs-filesystem-in-the-cl..." current
