It has been far too long since I have posted anything on my website, it's quite embarassing really. The last post I ended on was about my interest in Go at the time, but so much more has happened since as that was now a decade ago.
As much as I love Go, I continue to use Python and Go equally. As you mature as a developer, languages tend to matter a lot less. You pick the best tool for the job. One thing I have been doing a lot over the last few years for example is Wagtail. Another thing I have been getting into is retro tech, FPGA's all sorts of cool things I could be posting about.
Right now the website is old, stale, I don't like the design anymore. The Firefox badges in the sidebar are over 15 years old and don't make sense anymore. A new simpler theme is needed that is mobile friendly.
