Another attempt to revive this blog

For me it is notoriously difficult to keep up with sharing stuff. On one hand, I think I don’t have much to share. But so do most of the people on the internet.

In the past years, my blog software was just outdated and I didn’t take the time to do anything about it. As a result. I had some topics to write about, but because everything on my side was broken, I didn’t write. At some point, I decided to try to switch to hugo. Mostly for procrastination purposes 😅 I wrote a couple of lines of go, to convert my stuff over from Nikola restructured text to hugo markdown. Which turns out to be a nice little programming challenge. After finding all the edge-cases with my very personal use of Nikola, things went relatively well. To get most functionality back, I had to add some special templates, partials and shortcodes. Nothing special really. But work to be done.

Because my day work is also with computers, I tend to do not too much in my spare time. I really prefer spending time with my 👨‍👩‍👦 or riding my 🚴‍♂️. As a result. At some point, I was halfway in the migration. Even more reasons for me to not blog 🤷

Today is the day. It should rain the entire weekend. I spent the last two days on the bike. Thursday a 70km road ride 🚴‍♂️, yesterday 50km on gravel 🚵‍♂️. The kids are busy meeting friends. No real excuse to not spend an hour or two to shape off the last obvious edges.

Let’s see what happens next. Maybe I manage to keep up with writing, maybe this is the last post for the next six years 🙈 🙊 🙉
