first post

After so long on twitter, I’m unused to longform writing, despite all my threads. I’m used to expressing things 140 characters at a time, as this paragraph indicates.

This will be my first foray into longform writing in a while. I’ll probably end up parasitizing off my twitter threads.

About this site: I figured I wanted to blog, but I never want to leave vim/emacs to do it. Setting up a github static page with Jekyll was the laziest possible way to accomplish this. Literally took 5 minutes.

Edit: Immediately switched to Frog, which is a static site generator written in Racket which works on Google Pages. Spinning that up was a little more work, as GP doesn’t let you simply branch, install an alternate generator, and set that second branch as the display. Still, took only a few minutes.
