I can&#8217;t recall the reason or the exact date, though it was probably somewhere in 2010. Using the Google cache I was able to recover most of the posts.<\/p>\n<p>A few weeks back the database of this blog managed to corrupt itself somehow. (I suspect a dist-upgrade on my server is to blame for that, though I&#8217;m not sure.) After spending several hours trying to restore the database and learning many things about InnoDB that I&#8217;d rather not have to know, I figured I&#8217;d have to resort to manually restoring my blog again.<\/p>\n<p>Why manually? Didn&#8217;t I have any backups?! I&#8217;m quite lazy and had not gotten around to automatically making backups of my blog. Since I&#8217;m only adding content here rather slowly, manually doing a backup every few months is just fine. And I actually did that. Those backups were not backed up though, so I lost them when one of my disks crashed a few weeks ago. Ugh.<\/p>\n<p>The timing of this was also unfortunate as I used to have a recent sql dump of my database lying around from when I moved my blog a few months ago. It seems like I deleted it in the meanwhile though.<\/p>\n<p>Funnily enough I was able to restore all posts up to May 2011 using a dump from my original blog database, on my old webhost. The only reason it&#8217;s still there is because (a) I&#8217;m to lazy to clean it up, and (b) I&#8217;m to lazy to cancel the contract I don&#8217;t really need anymore. Sometimes laziness can be a real asset \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>The more recent posts I restored manually from the cache of my RSS reader. Sadly enough that leaves a gap from May 2011 to March 2012, which probably contains two dozen blog posts I was not able to restore.<\/p>\n<p>March 2014 edit: Found the remaining posts on archive.org and inserted them \\o\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TL;DR: At some point I lost the database of this blog.
