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)

WebVM lets you run a full Linux system directly in your web browser without needing a server. It uses a special engine called CheerpX to safely run unmodified Linux programs by converting x86 code to WebAssembly. You get a real Debian Linux environment with many tools, and it supports networking through Tailscale VPN, so your browser VM can connect securely to the internet. You can also customize and deploy your own WebVM easily using GitHub, making it great for development, testing, or learning Linux without installing anything. This means you can have a powerful, private Linux machine anytime, anywhere, just in your browser[1][2][3].

Compose Multiplatform is a Kotlin-based framework by JetBrains that lets you build user interfaces for multiple platforms—iOS, Android, desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux), and web—using mostly shared code. It is based on Jetpack Compose for Android, so you can use similar APIs across platforms, speeding up development and ensuring consistent UI design. iOS support is in beta, web is in alpha, and desktop and Android are stable. You can also access native features like camera or maps easily. This helps you save time, reduce bugs, and create apps that work well everywhere with less effort.

RuVector is a free, open-source vector database that gets smarter with every query. Unlike static databases, it learns from usage via GNN layers, runs LLMs locally with no cloud costs, supports graph queries like Neo4j, scales freely across nodes, and deploys as a single self-booting file (125ms startup). Run with `npx ruvector`. You benefit from faster, more accurate AI search that improves automatically, zero operating costs, full offline/privacy control, and easy scaling—perfect for RAG, agents, or edge apps without vendor lock-in.

Highway is a C++ library that helps make software run faster and use less energy. It does this by using SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data) instructions, which let the CPU perform the same operation on many pieces of data at once. This can make programs up to 10 times faster and reduce energy use by up to five times. Highway works on many different types of computers and is easy to use, making it a good choice for developers who want to improve their software's performance.
