Nuclear's blog

John Tsiombikas <nuclear@mutantstargoat.com>

This is the new incarnation of my blog. My old blog was hosted on wordpress.com, but I decided that my dislike of typing in web-based forms is one of the main reasons I never post to it any more, so I moved everything to my own server and made it into a set of simple static pages generated automatically from markdown source files.

There is no mechanism for comments. If you wish to discuss any of my posts head over to the subreddit I created for this purpose: r/nuclears_hacks.

I've moved all my old posts here, each one has a link to the original wordpress post in case you want to read any comments that were posted under it.
