You know, I actually like the URL https://web.evanchen.cc/personal.html
over the more modern https://web.evanchen.cc/personal/.
I think this might just be Stockholm syndrome but I actually like how it seems more old-fashioned. And tells you about the underlying technology: that it's just an HTML file.
Apparently in Asymptote you can just do 2P instead of 2*P. I had no idea.
I feel like people can see what I've been up to lately my checking my GitHub commit history because recently everything I do gets pushed to public repo's.
the day has finally come where I reviewed my 21G.901 Anki deck and didn't have to use the again button

if I had an LLM do it.
Switched from Pelican to Zola for wall and it feels so clean. (And fast.)
TIL that sed can delete all lines matching a pattern:

Woke up to Tailscale DNS not working on desktop.
Ended up installing openresolv to replace resolvconf, to match my laptop.

I hope Python and Rust rule the world together.
Spent the morning trying to wrap my head around the nvim IDE stuff and wrote up a note to self.
Reading about mkdocs falling apart is… huh. I had no idea.
CI is killing my productivity because I feel like I can't focus on the actual work until the CI is set up perfectly.
