Site Info

This is a static website because reasons:

• Performance Static websites load faster than web apps.
• Durability I don't have to maintain frameworks and libraries to make it work because it's based on standard web technology.
• Flexibility The simplicity of the build makes it very easy to make changes
• Portability: Just grab the files and go.
• Cost: hosting a static site is only 12¢ a month.

Key Apps

• 11ty site generator.
• Sublime Text code editor.
• Obsidian markdown editor for blog entries and recipes.
• Awesome Screenshot for grabbing screensots and recordings.
• Amazon S3 & Cloudfront for hosting. I don't love Amazon but I do love paying 10¢ / month.

Body: (1rem)
Some years ago—never mind how long precisely—having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world. It is a way I have of driving off the spleen and regulating the circulation.

Some years ago—never mind how long precisely—having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world. It is a way I have of driving off the spleen and regulating the circulation.

Prose:
Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people’s hats off—then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can.
