You are probably here because you've happened upon my YouTube channel at the genesis of this website; thank you for your patronage. Although html websites are no longer in vogue, I'm nostalgic to the innocence and simplicity of this ancient web tech, having grown-up with it through the years. Yes, it's not as easily scalable and "connected", but it's also not as overburdened with intracacies that obsfuscate an already complicated world. Whatever your reason for being here, I'm glad that you are. Take care of yourself and as Spock would say, "Live long and prosper."
Why so plain?
Have I ever considered using..., November 11, 2022
Yes, I have. I've tried a myriad of ready-made blogging, content management, and forum software in my many attempts at web publication and have found most of them to be overly complicated for journaling my thoughts on the interweb. My WordPress installation would receive updates, patches and get hacked every 15-minutes or so, and the lesser known blogging software would lose support and functionality when the developers defunct. My programming background is based on the procedural paradign of line number BASIC and Pascal, so trying to decipher and debug the new fandangle Object-oriented programming PHP scripts brings me great discomfort and frustration. Not trying to discount the marvel of new programming languages, just complaining because I'm not smart enough to be able to wrangle the programs as I'd like. Regardless, although not fancy, html and javascript are fairly straight-forward to comprehend, gets across what I'd like to on the internet, and is fairly hack-resistant, that's why you are seeing what you're reading.
