Jekyll with Virtual Box and Network Mount

It appears when you have your files for Jekyll stored on the host machine on VirtualBox the files get cached and you receive a stale copy.

A simple solution is to "touch" the file.

#!/bin/bash

echo "Touching all the things..."

find . -exec touch {} \;

echo "Finished Touching..."

jekyll serve

The MicroBrute. I found one for less than retail from an auction site.

I've been watching videos about synthesizers and found a tutorial:

I'm pretty sure I need to find a EuroRack power module and begin collecting.


Here are some interesting modules I found:
