I'm switching to normal sorts of dates in the phlog dir
as of 9/23/2019. The following is for historical reference,
in case you peek in the archives.
****
Gophernicus sorts directory listings alphabetically. That
means that, barring the use of CGI, phlog entires will
not generally be sorted by when they were posted, but in
a "random" chronological order according to the filename.
One solution to this is a filenaming convention that
allows you to use alphabetical sorting to specifcy
chronology. User papa on grex came up with the following
sort order. I've only listed the bare minimum information
for sorting files from one year (his "spec" allows for
a reference year, a previous and next year.) For the
full details, check out papa's gopher hole on grex.
From the reader's perspective none of this really matters;
just know that at the top you'll find the more recent
phlog post, and ignore the filenames.
