静态网站悖论
个人网站的两种不同实现方式:一种是复杂的内容管理系统(CMS),另一种是简单的静态 HTML 文件。文章指出,尽管大多数普通用户倾向于使用复杂的解决方案(如 WordPress),但实际上,只有少数专业软件工程师能够选择更简单的静态网站。

前两天刚好听朋友说 square space 已经涨到了近乎搞笑的 $25 月费,做不用来盈利的个人博客实在难以 justify。这篇文章中吐槽得很在点子上:
normal users are stuck with a bunch of greedy clowns that make them pay for every little thing, all while wasting ungodly amounts of computational power to render what could have been a static website in 99% of cases.
普通用户被困在了一群屁大点功能都要收费的贪婪小丑手里,与此同时浪费着人神共愤额度的算力来渲染 99% 的情况下都可以作为静态的网站。
当然原文中说的“只有少数专业软件工程师才能选择更简单的静态网站”略微夸张并不认同,因为静态站至少是比 self-host 的动态 CMS 少太多维护了。我的 backlog 里也一直躺了篇安利新手用静态站并拉踩 WP 的文,不过网上这种文已经有无数了也还是拦不住前赴后继往各种 CMS 的坑里冲的新手,觉得写了又有什么意义呢就还搁着没写。(当然迟早会像以前反复造的无数轮子一样被废话欲战胜的 but not today)

According to the ministry, the revised prices ……

News: #US. issues temporary waiver for #Iranian oil shipments already in transit
The Office of Foreign Assets Control (#OFAC) has issued a time-limited authorization allowing the delivery and sale of Iranian-origin crude oil and #petroleum products that were already loaded onto vessels before 20 March 2026.
In a notice released under “General License U,” the office, part of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, said transactions ordinarily prohibited under U.S. sanctions will be permitted if they are “incident and necessary” to the completion of shipments already in transit by the cutoff date.
The authorization allows activities including the sale, transport, and offloading of such cargoes until 19 April 2026, after which the standard sanctions regime resumes in full.
The measure does not lift broader sanctions on Iran but provides a narrow window to conclude pre-existing .....
