I quite like this! I see a lot of people quoting the line "I have very high and unusual standards" and only paying attention to the first adjective. It's obvious that many of the things people are complaining about are simply not important to them, which is fine! Part of the magic of the personal website the author talks about comes from how different people prioritize different parts of the website creation and usage experience differently.

Where I do think the article misses the ball is on static vs. dynamic websites. If you need a dynamic website (for example, to display the user's IP), build a dynamic website. If you don't, build a static website. There really isn't another argument presented here beyond "some things you can't do with a static website", which is really just the fundamental tradeoff of a static site.

Anyways, a neat glimpse into a particular development philosophy that I will very likely never do but I will share with some similarly-minded friends :)
