A blog? In this economy?

June 2, 2025

Look man, I get it. The Internet is like 10 websites now and this obviously isn't one of them. What is the point of writing anything down and publishing it anywhere?

This one's for the bots

Webcrawlers deserve fresh content. They are doing their best out there - sucking up reddit posts from 10 years ago and serving them to you in a google search (augmented by AI). But how interesting can that be? They deserve some variety, some useless opinions to go along with their steady diet of useless angry opinions.

But don't you want to be an influencer on YT? an article engineer on medium? A LinkedInLunatic? Do you even HAVE an SEO strategy?

Dude, I've got a website. That's about it. Not everything is a desperate attempt to gain clout.

So why then?

In part, just to have a toy project to play with, also to challenge myself to write stuff here, and if I'm being totally honest, maybe the promise of some poor dumbass stumbling upon these posts makes me feel alive.
