This site is built with a static site generator `Hugo` with the `LoveIt` theme.

This is a web log, not a blog, though the distinction exists only in my head, and serves as a way to distance myself from the word blog itself, which now seems to connote something odd I cannot quite put my finger on. Perhaps relevant is that I do not like portmanteaus. They reduce precision and create ambiguity by default. They have the feeling of whimsy and unseriousness – sort of like the product of a marketing department's monomaniacal pursuit of capturing even a tiny additional scrap of mindshare, without respect at all for the words it clumsily hot-glues together. Something like this.
