I wouldn't say plain, but it's a generic LLM design. Which made me curious whether the blog was around with a different look before AI was commonly used for such things, and it turns out it was, at https://www.pzuraq.com (which now redirects to the current site).

One article survived the move, so you can compare:

Edit: Loading any page of the old blog on archive.org always errors out initially. Click back to the blog list and then on the article again.

Guilty as charged, I did use LLMs to bootstrap the design and much of the site, though I took it in my own direction after the initial pass. But it is generic enough, and I just needed something a little fresher and quick.

At some point I’m going to get the older articles back up, but most of them are very specific to a time that just doesn’t have relevance anymore, even to the Ember.js community. Didn’t want to distract from the newer content.

And at some point I’ll make a new account here too… web handle changes are always a pain
