There are some new posts over at my site!
Hey all! I haven’t been blogging as much lately, but I recently picked up a few new subscribers to Substack, so I thought I’d send out a quick update.
I created this Substack primarily as a quick and easy way to get a mailing list started, and it’s worked out great for that. As a general rule, I try to shadow my posts to my website over to Substack. However, my last three posts didn’t make it over to Substack for various reasons.
If you like my writing and primarily engage with it via Substack, there are three posts at my site that you may not have seen yet, which probably won’t end up with mirrored posts here on Substack. Those posts are as follows:
A Crash Course on Music Theory for Guitarists - this one was not brought over because I opted to start a different Substack for posts related to music education stuff. I haven’t done any more writing on this topic in the intervening time, so that Substack is pretty empty, but I also have a burgeoning Youtube Channel where I occasionally put guitar / musician related stuff. This is something I’d love to dedicate more time to, but as it stands it’s a side-side-side project. Still, it’s out there if you’re looking for more of my “stuff”!
Building Intuition With Quadratic Equations - this one never came over to Substack because it makes heavy use of LaTeX for math typesetting and Substack didn’t have a good (read: easy) way to translate the material over. It was created from a bunch of notes I took while working an Advent of Code problem and was written primarily to serve as future reference on the topic from me, but I think it’s a good post, and if you’re that rare type of person who’s simultaneously interested in math and also has forgotten something as “basic” as quadratic equations, you might enjoy it.
Teranoptia Playground - This post is hot off the presses, just published today. It is a very straightforward “I found a cool thing on HN and am sharing it” kind of post. It’s not coming to Substack because the entire point of the post was to provide a playground for a fun font I learned about, and there’s no way to bring that functionality into Substack. But if you feel like creating some beautifully rendered little “monsters” using nothing more than your keyboard and your imagination, you should go check it out!
That’s it for now - I’ll try to be better about surfacing new stuff I’m doing via this mailing list in the future. Thanks for tuning in!
