Hello, world.
First post on the new ntindle.com — built with Astro, MDX, and an unreasonable amount of Dr Pepper.
The old ntindle.com was a single HTML file with three hyperlinks and one <center>
tag. It served me well for the better part of a decade. But it was time.
This site is built with Astro + MDX, deployed via Caddy on a tiny DigitalOcean droplet that also happens to be hunting for new terms in the OEIS sequence A276661. Multitasking.
What this blog is for
Mostly things I want to remember:
- weird projects I’m building (and why I’m building them)
- post-mortems from hackathons
- whatever I learn at 1:30 AM CST
- the occasional rant about NPM peer dependencies
If you came here from one of those hackathon talks — welcome. If you came here because you’re considering joining a robotics club — also welcome, and read the stratosphere story first.
