It is, but AFAICT the entire blog is just this post.

I found it useful to set a timer and write about small things, e.g. through this post [1] about blocking websites with /etc/hosts. It took about 20 minutes and I can share it with my interested friends. If I were a little faster, I could probably do it in 10.

A solid start! I'm looking forward to the next one.

I should try that. I do enjoy the deep dive into a topic, but then I will never finish/publish something. Also quite perfectionistic which doesn't help, but your strategy sounds interesting, will give that a go.

I like your short story format btw, it's nice, and interesting topics as well. Also looks like you are on a good streak, keep it going!

Thank you! And I hear you on the perfectionism -- another reason I held off for so long, and something I'll write about in the future. Unweaving it has been so freeing, and at the same time I'm doing better work than ever before.
