I really enjoyed reading this article.

The author is honest with themself and earnest with the reader. They're unapologetically themself, and figuring out how to achieve their goals in ways that align with their values and bring them joy. If those values do not align with yours, that is okay. That is beautiful! Now you have a clue as to what path you might explore.

The article is kind and humble and authentic, and I think that the author and the article make the world a better place. Thank you for writing it, and thank you for sharing it.

Earnest certainly, but being honest with themselves? Very much the opposite. And humble? Very much the opposite. The whole piece is self-congratulatory with the occasional /r/confidentlyincorrect nugget here and there.

How so? The author just describes their values and how they shape their workflow. How are they not honest with themselves?

To me it's easier to think about this as an exercise, an aid for the author to achieve their internal goals, likely of learning, being in control, etc. It's only incidentally intended for the reader, so the reader experience, Spartan as it is, is not the point, the writer's experience is.

Since you read it, do you mind sharing its contents with us? It looks like many of us, who came here from a mobile platform, gave up reading way too early.

Author wants to understand and control the whole toolchain used to build their website (of course excluding most basic things like CPU architecture up to the programming language), because they want to be able to fix it themselves and want it to work in 10 years too, so not relying on others. They tried Hugo, didn't like it because of that, writing plain html was too much work, so they built a single binary dynamic site generator with a webserver themselves
