Good luck to all! Fingers crossed they will all be successful.

As anyone who has been paying attention to space exploration knows, the Moon is red-hot. Up to half a dozen missions may launch to the lunar surface in the next six months, heralding a new era of Moon exploration.

Don’t JavaScript all the things

February 9, 2023

Lately I’ve been thinking about how hard it is to have a good experience using the web on a mobile device unless you turn JavaScript off.

This site is a bit simple, isn’t it?

January 11, 2023

Yes. Yes it is. Very much on purpose. My goal with this site is to make it fast, simple, and easy to update. So, instead of fancy-smanshy features, I decided to strip it to the bare-bones and then add things from there as, and if, I need them.

I know the usual thing these days is to throw in everything, which has resulted in a constant ballooning of sites. I didn’t want that. The most important thing of this site is the content and I want that to be front and center, with as few things as possible getting in between reader and content.

That’s why it’s a bit simple. But it’s my site and that’s ok.

PS: By the way, there are other languages you can read this blog in, but they’re not supposed to all have the same content. They’re not necessarily a translation of this site, I may translate a post from time to time but mostly they will be a different thing.
