About this site
I used to write in small personal blogs. Early on, especially when blogging was novel, I'd run custom scripts to run these sites — my career path was shaped early on from the autodidactic experience of putting those sites together (on top of a more traditional CS education). Such experience led to a string of college jobs, which led to a job and a move to Silicon Valley, many years ago.
I'd eventually stopped "rolling my own" and just settled for a Blogger account, not having to worry about serving, maintenance, etcetera, but, as Blogger aged, my interest in writing waned, and I missed the simplicity and the flexibility.
For years, I'd been meaning to set up something simple just to serve stable, long-lived pages with stable URLs for when I wanted to publish something longer than tweet length. GitHub offers a decent-enough solution for serving such static content, and so I set up a small repository that simply generates the static files and pushes them to my GitHub Pages repo, visible here.
