Made a new blog to have a space to get my notes in order and share my research. Jekyll, which I've used to generate the previous one, got too bloated for my taste. I wanted to try Luke Smith's lb script for ages, so after a fresh Arch install on my recently purchased (refurbished) Lenovo ThinkPad from ebay, I gave it a shot and forked it. I can also recommend Luke's tutorials on old-skool applications like ImageMagick, LaTeX or Vim.
There is still plenty of customization and tweaking to do, but I have much more control and creative freedom than the average platform content creator. In the process of building a blog nearly from scratch, I get a much better understanding of what code actually is. In general I prefer working without a GUI and navigate the cursor with keys rather than having to grab for the mouse, which also allows for a faster and seamless writing process.
