I’ve committed to building websites with Hugo about ten years after it was cool. I’ll admit that I sat on the WordPress bus for too long. I’m currently redesigning zacroyoga. The challenge is that I still need to be a theme designer. Designing a theme would be fun, but I like the PaperMod theme, but there are certain areas I want to extend beyond it.

There is this constant struggle within me. I want to write to get better at writing. I want to write to share knowledge and experience that I have learned, but as I learn and grow, I’m worried that I will inevitably write pure crap. Crap that is useless and not worth reading and is instead clogging up the interwebs and adding more noise than signal. I have a problem that as I read through the internet these days, it often needs to be clarified who is an expert and who is pretending to be one. The question is: who do you trust? ...
