Ask HN: Could you share your personal blog here?

I’ve been working as a software engineer for about a decade now, primarily at startups. Recently the first employee at incident.io, before then working at GoCardless.

Tend to write about lessons I’ve learned that others find useful, or stories I think will be enjoyable. Helps me collect my thoughts and practice my writing!

Examples would be;

- Want to found a start-up? Work at one first (https://blog.lawrencejones.dev/learn-at-scale-up/)

- Adding latency: one step, two step, oops (https://blog.lawrencejones.dev/latency/)

- My most impactful code (https://blog.lawrencejones.dev/most-impactful/)

- On working too hard: finding balance, and lessons learned from others (https://blog.lawrencejones.dev/working-too-hard/)

Occasionally get a popular share on HN or people mentioning they read my blog in real life, which makes it feel worth it.

Personal blog focussed on tech things I find interesting. Some of them involve building small tools (like a swiss ID checksum generator) or illustrating certain algorithms (like the 4 color theorem).

I've been writing for a while now. Mostly front-end development, random experiments and creative coding.

My most popular post that was on the first page of HN earlier this year: https://muffinman.io/blog/draw-svg-rope-using-javascript/

I'm pretty proud of my generative, pen plotted drawings: https://muffinman.io/art/

And one of my favorites: https://muffinman.io/blog/breaking-down-krypton/

Edit: Typo.

Posting occasionally since 2009.

I found my niche in a problem called Signal Integrity - a subset of digital hardware design. My work relies heavily on electromagnetic simulation so I enjoy playing around with that in my spare time as well. I probably only post about twice a year as I'm busy lately with grad school, but it's fun to keep the site going. I also have what is erroneously titled a "wiki" there where I want to accumulate a knowledge base of helpful SI/PI information. Since I just use static hosting, I currently generate the wiki section of the site from a Zim notebook.
