First Post

Welcome to my blog!

#include stdio.h

int main(void) {
    printf("Hello, world!");
}

I finally decided to redo my website and as part of the new website, I want to keep a written record of some of the problems I encounter in my work and personal projects as well as other musings, things I learned, and ideas (a good old weblog). I know, I know... it's 2019 and most people don't have blogs anymore but publish on Medium, or write something lengthy and then upload a picture of it to Twitter or Instagram or Tumblr or insert_new_social_platform_name. I'll probably cross-post some things but most of my posts will have a home here.

I'm interested in a wide variety of topics and knowledgeable in a narrow slice of that: programming, software engineering best practices, entrepreneurship, rowing, sports physiology and training planning, health care more broadly, science and science fiction, especially things related to space exploration, economics and finance, and I can't help it... self-helpy and motivational things. In case any of these things interest you as well, see if you find something you like and send me a message.

I'll do my best to keep old posts updated as new information becomes available but in some cases it may not make sense (I'm looking at you, projects with npm dependencies). If you find inaccuracies or errors in my posts, please let me know and I'll fix them.

In case you were wondering, this website was built with GatsbyJS. If you know React and you're interested in building a static site that's free to build, inexpensive to host, and easy to maintain, I'd recommend you take a look at the documentation. In a future post, I might give a quick rundown of how I put this website together.

That's it for now!
