I decided to create this blog because:

  1. writing sharpens thoughts. In other words, the process of writing refines and formalizes your own ideas or convictions. Having a blog should encourage me to write more, hopefully leading to stronger ideas and new connections.
  2. I like building and making things. This includes writing software, producing music, creating art, making videos, etc. A blog is another creation medium and a good way of “putting myself out there”, which I’ve decided to do more of in 2025. This can be a topic for another post.
  3. it may be helpful to others. Realistically, Google Analytics is going to show single-digit readership. Nevertheless, there is still a chance that what I write here may end up being useful to someone else. I do feel that I’ve accumulated good experience in the tech industry and life, hence all the more reason to be creating this blog now.

Anyways, I’m thinking that a monthly posting cadence would be a good start. If I’m passionate enough about the endeavour, I should definitely be able to keep to this schedule. Else, it’s a good indicator to shut things down. Time will tell.
