A little (more about me)

I have a twin! It’s true!
Russ and Tracey.

I’m into software, UI/UX, video, time-lapse photography, sewing, design, lighting, and interior decorating.

Tracey moved (after 6 years in San Francisco) to a little mountain 🐮 town – the Montclair district in the Oakland hills.

About this site

[2019] Migrated to Hugo – a static site engine written in Go. (I migrated from wordpress).

• I now write in Markdown - very natural and simple.
• Using website theme: Hugo Future Imperfect Slim
• I’m using GitLab to host the entire website in a single code repository. It very nicely auto builds/deploy upon each git push. It’s totally free except for the domain name modest annual fee.
• Some details about the migration.

[2010] I’ve finally taken the plunge to the ubiquitous wordpress as the basis of my completely rewritten (June 2010) website, using a custom plugin and custom new HTM/CSS/JS “slide-responsively“ that I wrote, which is inspired by “sliding-door“ theme. That gives me the bloglike nature, comments, search, and such.

Aside from customizing the theme, I took a lot of my old pages that were the basis of my old site, converted them from HTML+JS to PHP+HTML and setup some hooks for these pages to render using my static PHP files for the content of the “page/post content” (the page content is “empty” in the wordpress DB for these pages). This allows me nicely to have a small set of static pages I mostly manage and edit externally, but they still get the overall theme, comments, tags, and such.
