Starting Fresh

...
A New Re?Start

As you guys know, I've been stuck between a rock for months now with zero motivations to write anything. When I started my blog, I was caught up with too many other things at once that I left some of my articles largely unfinished. The motivation is gone but since I already wrote them first, I still have that feeling of obligation to see them finish. I just want to write things that I love right now, not the things that I was motivated before. With that said, I'm starting over and hopefully finish something.


A Major Upgrade

The site now runs on NodeJS runtime that has better performance than PHP which the old website was made of. I've been planning to migrate to a NodeJS implementation once I learned the framework as I want to distance myself from the PHP ecosystem. It was not inherently bad, given that PHP is sufficient enough to solve most problems but it was a very closed ecosystem that only specializes in web development and it's a more like a hack than anything. I'm no specialist and I want a leaner tech stacks going forward (maybe just C and Javascript for now).
