I started blogging on February 2000, on a different domain and in a nacent phase of my life. I have an archive of my early posts, and I hope to begin adding them in here (I have a plain text export of my original Movable Type blog entries (nearly 1,000 entries!), so it will take a bit of time to move them to Markdown/Hugo.)

Eras of my blog:
  • 2022 - Now - Corporate life ( 39 posts ~ 0.74 posts/month )
