Webb +Category: Announcement 2021.01.03 + + New year, who dis? + +Abstract + + Time is a flat circle + +Body + + I'm not going to mention last year in number, I don't even want to + hear people with perfect vision talk about their eyes. We're in a new + year, Drumpf is going to be out of office in less than three weeks, + and I have a new design for my blog…more like, LACK of design. + + 1. Why + + I published a grand total of two posts last year. TWO. I was busy + working on personal projects, dealing with this general malaise of + uncertainty, and didn't feel like dealing with the annoying + process of updating my blog. Yuk. As a result though, I have + several half-finished posts I can/will upload this year since my + blog setup is extremely pared down. + + Being an architech (a designer who codes and vice-versa) is hella + annoying. I am displeased by my design AND my code after a period + of time, and then I detest it far too much. Maybe my experience + and age has brought me to the point of realizing I don't need the + latest fancy UI ~~blemishes~~ features and tooling to get + something online. I *may* update this to support TypeScript and + `import`s because I quite enjoy that. + + This blog is also missing analytics. They were never on the + front-end, but in the server. One of my many tasks this year is to + overhaul my analytics platform[1] to make it robust enough to + charge money for. + + 2. What (now) + + I think adding automated deployments would be a nice + quality-of-life feature and would definitely encourage me to write + more. Currently, I have to upload a new text file to my server and + refresh the pm2 job. In any event, this blog is the first step in + realizing my personalOS[2] concept in concrete forms and I suppose + this is the year to document everything as I go through it. + + You can check out the previous[3] incarnation of this blog if + you're curious to see what it was like. + + I think 2021 is gonna be big for data portability and flat files + are the easiest way to do it. The fact that this blog is just a + single JavaScript file and a folder full of text files (okay AND + a couple Node.js modules 😒) is kind of neat…actually, that + wouldn't be a bad idea for socii[4] to implement. Maybe I'll + relaunch that soon. We'll see. 🕸 + +References + + [1] + [2] + [3] + [4] -- cgit v1.2.3
