I used to self-enforce "must make a post at least once per month" for a few years, but it's been a while since I last blogged regularly. Plan to restart this year with a series on fitness for tech/office workers. Top tip: choosing a subject matter agnostic name means that you can alter what you blog about as your interests change over the years.

  • geraltofrivia 8y ago
    Hi, nullandvoid. I can't comment about the content on your page, but here's a few comments about the UI, which IMHO perturb the experience. - As you scroll down, and the gradients shift to yellow, white font based text gets difficult to read - (On Mobile) the black footer, and headers feel uncanny, and take up reading space. Maybe fixing the header to the top of the page is a better option? Since most people don't mind scrolling to the top to find the nav bar. Kudos for using both text and icons there btw. Regarding the footer, the left side (powered by ?) can go to the bottom of the page since it's not particularly relevant. Also consider making the icon clickable to whatever that thing is. The LinkedIn, GitHub and Stack overflow links could be in the contact section, where you've got linkedin anyway. Or maybe fixed at the top, right above projects section. All of this is just my personal thoughts, feel free to ignore :)
    • nullandvoid 8y ago
      Hi geraltofrivia - Appreciate the feedback! I'm certainly aware of the mobile being more clumsy than I had wanted ( spent a lot of time on the desktop and then retrofitted the mobile view which i'm unhappy with :P ). I will certainly add those points to my TODO list when i'm polishing it up over the next few weeks

  https://jake.tl https://jake.tl My full name is Jake Teton-Landis so I’m overjoyed I could get this domain name. I redesigned the site from scratch in 2018, although most of the content is from long before then. The bit I’m proud of is https://jake.tl/notes/2018-03-28-goto/ https://jake.tl/notes/2018-03-28-goto/ Built with [Ivy], a static site generator I picked for its simple content model and well-designed plugin architecture. I wrote a custom plugin to inline resources like CSS and images. Auto-deployed using Github Actions which I find very handy. Hosted by Firebase Hosting which gives me free CDN & HTTP/2 delivery and an easy deploy tool. DNS from gandi.net, a [“no bullshit”] independent registrar I highly recommend. I hope to publish a long-form post completely explaining how my website works in a way understandable to any English speaker familiar with computers, but no ETA on that.

• acconrad 8y ago
  https://conradadam.com https://conradadam.com I'm a UX engineer so my focus was on a site that loads quickly, is accessible, and is easy to read. It gets 100s across the board on Google Lighthouse because it's built with one HTML file. The CSS was ruthlessly cut down to a single style tag and I believe there's only a tiny bit of JavaScript for lazy loading images and Service Workers for offline capabilities (in case you need my email in a Subway tunnel?). The service worker file needed to be separated (so I guess it's two files then) but the single HTML was compressed as much as I possibly could to reduce the size down. I even downloaded the Google font file to preload it faster and to strip out all of the unused glyphs. It definitely loads quickly. I also have some interest in design, so I wanted to express myself a bit, choosing lots of fonts and designs to create a somewhat eclectic homage to computing past and present.

  https://pixelpoppers.com/ https://pixelpoppers.com/ Started in 2009 as a Blogger blog about video game design/culture/psychology/philosophy (my most-read post was about quitting World of Warcraft[1] and was discussed on HN at the time[2]), it's now a (mostly) static site built in Hugo including the blog, my own developed games and a dev blog about them (only one game so far; that's a new part of the project), quick reviews of games I play, shared links to interesting articles/videos, and a blogroll of other recommended websites. I'm very much a fan of "Publish (on your) Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere", so I've been moving all of my content together under my own control. My articles also go to Medium, my games also go to itch.io, my shared links are also on Pinboard, etc., but everything is primarily on my own site and if any of the external services vanished I wouldn't lose anything. It's been a great way to learn more web development tools and skills, and it's nice to have both "write something creative" and "tinker with site infrastructure" as project options depending on what kind of energy I have in my free time.

• brunoluiz 8y ago
  https://brunoluiz.net https://brunoluiz.net This is my personal blog, with random thoughts and guides around software development. Until last year, I was using my Medium to post stuff. But, as I wanted to own my content and not have issues to post code snippets (Medium is horrible on this), I moved it to Gatsby + GitHub pages. I am still missing some stuff, such as a comment system, but this will be solved soon. Having my own content in Markdown makes easier to transport it around, even to other systems in the future -- if Gatsby proves to be not that good. And, as it is ReactJS, it is quite easy to tweak the starter theme.

  Interesting. Threads like this can also be used for profiling, tracking and analysis of HN readers and active users. Well, it's a double-edged sword I guess. P.S. Also there is nothing wrong with self-promotion, assuming you are not shamelessly plugging in irrelevant, low-quality content. EDIT: P.S.
  • luxpir 8y ago
    Depends how involved in HN you are already. I have already submitted links to my sites a bunch of sites over the last few years so figured it makes no difference at this point. Looks like you have too, so what are you waiting for :D
• luxpir 8y ago
  Great thread idea! I'm a fan of static sites, Hugo in particular. Went from WP on Apache in early 2000s, to Drupal/Nginx to Hugo/Nginx more recently. I edit the sites locally and rsync the files with an alias when done. Saves messing about with a CMS. Which I've done enough of in my time. Quick and cheap way to host a bunch of fast sites. Freelance + blog site using Kube framework/Hugo. After looking at all the great sites here, it definitely needs some colour, a new favicon, some images of yours truly and update of services offered. But before that lot gets done, it's at: > https://lukespear.co.uk/ https://lukespear.co.uk/ This other one is experimental, the better looking of the two, probably the home for courses I hope to put out this year: > https://objectivelyfun.com/ https://objectivelyfun.com/ It uses a customised Hugo theme - related posts, new sidebar, new post layout, new post types, improved meta stuff etc. Keep sharing - it's great for ideas.
• davidscolgan 8y ago
  My site is https://www.lessboring.com https://www.lessboring.com The site is purely Markdown crunched through Pelican, a nifty Python static site generator. I've been a freelance Django developer for about 8 years and always wanted to build a software product of some kind. The idea was to freelance to pay the bills and spend the rest of my time on products. Well, the products never really worked out, but the freelancing has worked out really well, especially in the last two years since I learned about business. My site now aims to help other developers learn the business skills of freelancing to help people avoid the pitfalls I fell into. I've been writing to a mailing list where the good emails go into articles on this site.
