Officially retired. Managing the money I saved to retire on, which is more time-consuming and stressful than expected. Working on yet another static site generator but stymied by my terrible Git/GitHub skills. Studying historical Western secular music. Jazz guitar too.

Happy site-maker-makin'... It is a most respectable yak shave. I had such a good time making mine a couple of years ago in Bash (https://github.com/adityaathalye/shite).

If Git/Github are interfering, just drop the folder in dropbox (or suchlike) and version control like it's 1990 (ssg_2, ssg_3, ... ssg_final_final :). Nobody can fire the officially retired developer for doing this in 2024.

Hey! You’re right! Lovely idea.

I like the cut of your jib.
