Precious Chicken

I maintain a website (which is mostly a blog plus landing page) after being convinced by reading Guzey's Why You Should Start a Blog Right Now. It is surprising how much better I understand topics once I've gone through the thinking process of writing a post. If someone else appreciates them (or contracts me on their basis), that is simply a bonus.

I use hugo for the blog, as it allows you to write without worrying about design too much, and the minimalist landing page is simply HTML and CSS.
