About this site

The philosophy behind my humble corner of the web is best summed up in Jeff Huang’s fantastic article This Page is Designed to Last.

In the spirit of trying to build something that might endure, this site’s content is written in Markdown and rendered by Hugo, a popular SSG that can be trivially replaced should it go away or otherwise become unsuitable. There’s arguably sin in leveraging GitHub and Cloudflare Pages for the CI/CD… perhaps I’ll self-host some day.

The main occupational hazard facing software engineers today is whiplash, caused by brutal thrasing from one fad or framework to the next. Hypertext Is All I Need.
