The background weather is now GPU-rendered: one instanced-quad draw call
over a baked sprite atlas plus a fullscreen sky shader (fog, Saharan
haze, aurora, sun rays, storm gloom and lightning flash). The old
Canvas2D renderer stays as weather-2d.js and kicks in automatically
when WebGL2 is missing; weather.js is now a thin controller that owns
the toggle, prefs and the PeteWeather API.
Effect upgrades: shared wind with gust pulses leans the whole scene
together, rain gets depth, splash pops and velocity-aligned streaks,
storms grow procedural branched lightning bolts, snow mixes soft motes
with spinning six-arm crystals, clouds drift in two parallax layers,
clear nights get a moon with maria, twinkling stars and the occasional
shooting star, blossoms and leaves tumble with a faked 3D flip.
New variants: haze (Saharan calima), wind (autumn gusts with streak
lines), hail (bouncing stones with drizzle) and aurora. The /weather
demo page switches variant, intensity and phase in place without a
reload and shows the active renderer plus an FPS meter.
- push digest queries now exclude _duplicate channel like every other
visibility query (bookmarks list/count and NewClassifiedSince)
- advance push watermark to newest scanned story, not pass-start now, so
stories arriving during a long send pass aren't re-counted next pass
- replace hand-rolled escapeHTMLText with stdlib html.EscapeString
- drop em-dashes from user-facing copy; bump PWA CACHE_VERSION so clients
pick up the changed shell assets
Code review of the personalization/feeds/PWA/push work surfaced ten
confirmed issues, now fixed:
- Web Push delivery bypassed the SSRF guard (unguarded default client);
now routes through safehttp.NewClient with a hard timeout, and the
subscribe handler validates the endpoint URL.
- Push unsubscribe deleted by endpoint with no owner check; added
RemovePushSubscriptionForUser scoped to the signed-in user.
- Byte-slice body/content truncation could split a UTF-8 rune and break
the RSS content:encoded XML; added a rune-safe truncateUTF8 helper.
- Digest sender could permanently starve a user who hid a high-volume
source; step the watermark past a full hidden-source scan window.
- Service worker cached personalized HTML navigations into a shared
cache (identity leak across PWA users); navigations are now
network-only, CACHE_VERSION bumped to v2 to purge stale pages.
- Public /api/article leaked discarded/unclassified bodies; filter to
classified, non-sentinel stories.
- runLocal never started the push sender; digests now fire in -local.
- Push client had no timeout, so one hung endpoint stalled all sends.
- Reader migration resurrected cross-device-cleared reads; gate it
behind a one-time flag so the server stays authoritative.
- Bookmarks count didn't match the classified list filter.
A multi-session build turning Pete's read-only web UI into something people
return to. Five phases, signed-in features keyed off the OIDC subject; anonymous
visitors keep the reverse-chron feed and localStorage-only state.
Phase 1 — per-user read + bookmark state: user_story_state table +
storage/userstate.go; auth-gated /api/read, /api/bookmark, /api/state and a
/bookmarks page; reader.js syncs state server-side for signed-in users. Also
hides the Matrix-posting UI when posting.enabled=false (web-only mode).
Phase 2 — outbound feeds: storage.ListForFeed + web/feed.go hand-build RSS 2.0
(content:encoded) and JSON Feed 1.1 (no new dep); /feed.xml, /feed.json and
per-channel variants; <link rel=alternate> discovery tags.
Phase 3 — "For you" + related: storage/rank.go scores recent unread candidates
by channel/source affinity + recency decay; RelatedStories via FTS5. ForYou rail
+ /for-you page; public /api/related feeds the reader's "You might also like".
Phase 4 — source-health dashboard: source_health table + storage/sourcehealth.go
(RecordPollResult, ListSourceHealth, SourceContentStats), written by the poller;
admin-gated /status page behind web.admin_subs.
Phase 5 — PWA + offline reader + Web Push: root-scoped manifest.webmanifest and
sw.js (app-shell precache, /api/article runtime cache for offline reading,
offline fallback, push/notificationclick handlers); PNG icons from pete.avif;
pwa.js registers the SW and drives a notifications toggle. Web Push adds
webpush-go, a [web.push] config block (pete -genvapid mints VAPID keys), a
push_subscriptions table, auth-gated subscribe/unsubscribe endpoints, and a
digest sender that pings each subscriber "N new stories" past their watermark,
honoring disabled-sources and pruning gone endpoints.
Tests added beside each new storage/web file; go test ./... and go vet clean.
