Test post

Checking that a new post goes from the database to the site on its own.

This is a test post. It checks that a new post reaches the site without a new image or a deploy.

The path it took

  1. An INSERT, over Arrow Flight SQL, into the GizmoSQL instance that holds the site's database.
  2. The site reads its posts from that instance on every request, so the post was live as soon as the INSERT returned.
If you can read this, the database is the only thing a post needs.

It will be gone soon.
