I live in Hong Kong with my wife and like to read pulpy sci-fi when I'm not thinking deep thoughts or eating dim sum.

This site is created with 11ty running on my MacBook Air M2. I also have a custom CMS running with express.js, also on my laptop, which writes Markdown files to a folder where 11ty is expecting to find them. When I hit the publish button, it fires up 11ty, which converts those skeletal Markdown files to full-blown HTML web pages, sorts the tags and collections, re-sizes images, links everything up, and then calls a shell script to sync the output directory with my web account.
