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）

✈️Bali expects 2.79 million tourists on New Year's Eve
📰 The Ministry of Transportation says 2.79 million visitors will arrive on the island during the Christmas and New Year holidays. This is traditionally the peak season on the island.
📍 Most of the travelers will arrive via the airport – 1.5 million people. Another 1.2 million will arrive via the Gilimanuk port, which connects Bali to the islands to the west, and 90,000 via the Padang Bay port to the east.
🚘 Bali's infrastructure, especially transportation, will face a major strain. Traffic is expected to increase by 20%.
🤔 Local authorities are already proposing exotic measures to combat traffic congestion – banning cars with license plates from other islands. However, it is problematic to put this into practice. The regional authorities have no such powers, and the central authorities will obviously not agree to it.
🎄 For everyone who is going to visit Bali for the holidays it is recommended to choose areas that have everything you need for a vacation. This will help to minimize movement around the island, and your mood will be much better.

The increase in fines for a number of traffic violations will come into force on January 1, 2025
📌"In Article 2, the word" Law "should be replaced with the words "Federal Law", the words "after thirty days from the date of its official publication" should be replaced with the words "from January 1, 2025," the text of the amendment posted in the Duma electronic database says.
📌Under this law, failure by a driver to perform the duty to insure his civil liability, as well as driving a vehicle, if the Compulsory third Party Insurance (CTP) policy is deliberately absent, entails the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of 800 rubles.
📌Earlier, the Parliament of the Kabardino-Balkar Republic submitted to the State Duma a bill that proposes to establish a fine for repeated violation of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, namely the absence of a driver's CTP policy, up to 5 thousand rubles.
CTP policy means Compulsory Third Party Insurance Policy
