So here is a useful tidbit I came across while setting this whole thing up. I suppose it is somewhat old news to some, however I am new to the github pages game and haven't looked at jekyll since 2010-ish. That last bit is entirely my fault though, as I had left ruby-land at that point and was off in v8-world until recently. When I quit my job and moved back to the united states. Crazy I know.
So after catching up on serial, and getting back in to drawing, I finally got to the point where I could look at code again. It was here as previously mentioned that I got heavily into emacs. Which admittedly was less for the sake of blogging, and more because I had finally committed to get more than a passing familiarity with cl. Which meant spending time in emacs and slime and the more time I spent in emacs the more I found out it can do. This, I am almost certain, is an age-old story of emacs addiction. I wonder if there is a 12 step program for this?
