this site exists now

I bought naft.pink a while ago and then did nothing with it, which is the normal lifecycle of a domain. It pointed at a parking page for months. That got old.

So this is the replacement. One page that says who I am, one page listing the hardware I actually use, and this notes section.

what goes here#

Dev logs, mostly. Short ones. Things like "the VM broke in a funny way" or "I picked X over Y and here's the reason I'll forget in three weeks." I'm not writing tutorials and I'm not writing thought leadership.

The bar for posting is low on purpose. A post that's four paragraphs and useful to future me beats a post I never finish.

how it's built#

Next.js App Router, Tailwind, MDX for these posts. No CMS, no database, no comment section. Posts are .mdx files in the repo, so writing one is the same motion as writing code: edit, commit, push.

The whole thing is static. It could run off a folder on any web server, which felt like the right amount of infrastructure for a personal site.

the pink#

The domain is .pink. Ignoring that would have been a waste. It's a couple of accents on a near-black background — links, a marker next to headings, a glow behind the hero. Any more than that and it stops being readable.
