I don't like tweaking or configuring settings so I try to leave things default unless something really annoys me or it improves my workflow greatly. It's easy to sink an infinite amount of time into optimizing your workflow and then die having made nothing.
## Website
There's two versions of this website, a main version at <https://tannercollin.com> and a lite version at <https://t0.vc>. The reason is because I found myself continually removing features from the main version for sport and to satisfy my millennial craving for minimalism. I was already running several [[t0 Services | services]] on t0.vc subdomains but had nothing on the main domain. So it's the perfect use for it and I can experiment to see how minimal I can take it.

So it's the perfect use for it and I can experiment to see how brutalist I can make it.
### Colophon
I use the static site generator Pelican to build the websites from a folder of markdown documents which I edit with Obsidian in Vim mode. This makes writing content feel like taking notes, since media and internal links are taken care of. The two versions are simply different themes loaded by different Pelican configs. The output is uploaded to my host via rsync and served by Nginx.

A huge improvement would be to combine the camera data with a physical trigger. A break beam sensor mounted on stair railings or an accelerometer mounted under the steps would work for this. But it would be annoying to mount, route power to, and harden for harsh Calgary winters. Perhaps the accelerometers are sensitive enough to mount inside, close to the entrances.
Update: a reader emailed me mentioning that he has a similar set up that's triggered by a HFS-DC06 radar sensor mounted inside his house. This module seems like a good option for me because it can sense through an external wall.
## Efficacy
According to [former burglars](https://news.t0.vc/TRMA), barking dogs and security cameras are some of the best deterrents to home invasions. The dog sounds fake to me, but I know it isn't real. I'm hoping that a rushing burglar won't spend time pondering if the barking is from an elaborate speaker setup and will just move on to a different house.
