      <description><![CDATA[I&apos;m reviving my personal blog to share thoughts, stories, and reflections that last—beyond the fleeting nature of social media. Technical posts will stay on IT Notes; everything else finds a home here.]]></description>
      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#39;ve decided to start writing on a personal blog again. Not just on <a href="https://it-notes.dragas.net">IT Notes</a>, where I&#39;ll continue to publish technical content as I&#39;ve been doing, but also on a more personal and general blog. And this for a number of reasons.</p>
<p>One above all: too many things I&#39;ve written on social media have disappeared into nothingness after a few days. Content there is meant to be momentary, ephemeral. It&#39;s not for nothing that we talk about <em>microblogging</em>: posts appear in timelines and then vanish in the continuous flow of new content. After six days, six months, six years... it&#39;s as if they never existed.</p>
<p>Looking back, years ago I used to use my blog just like it was a social network. I wrote about experiences, ideas, opinions. People would comment, creating an exchange. There were fewer haters back then — and when the phenomenon began to increase, we joked saying that &quot;they&#39;d sold too many modems.&quot;</p>
<p>Yet, those posts are still there. Those ideas, even after twenty years, are still readable. They&#39;ve moved from WordPress to Pelican, then to Nikola, and now (gradually) to <a href="https://bssg.dragas.net">BSSG</a>. They&#39;re Markdown files: simple, editable, exportable, convertible. They don&#39;t change in content, but they adapt in the way they&#39;re presented, remaining readable over time.</p>
<p>I&#39;ll write occasionally. When I feel the need to say something worth keeping. A bit like on social media, but also a bit like in a diary.</p>
<p>This desire came back to me while observing blogs like those of <a href="https://rubenerd.com/">Ruben Schade</a> and <a href="https://michal.sapka.pl/">Michał Sapka</a>, who consistently share their interests, projects, and thoughts. I won&#39;t be as regular, but alongside the &quot;quick bite&quot; posts on social media, I&#39;ll also create more reflective content, at my own pace.</p>
<p>As I mentioned, technical content will remain on <a href="https://it-notes.dragas.net">IT Notes</a>. Everything else will be here.</p>
<p>See you soon!</p>

      <title>The Web We Love</title>

      <description><![CDATA[The sense of community and willingness to help each other out is what makes the web such an incredible resource.]]></description>
      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some days ago, I found myself faced with a technical issue that has been nagging me for quite some time. After trying various solutions and none seemed to work, I decided to search for an answer online. Little did I know that this simple act of searching would lead me down a path where I unlocked not one, but two other problems just by reading through blogs.</p>
<p>As I got deeper into my search, I stumbled upon a blog that provided a valid solution to the issue at hand. The post was informative and clear, which made it easy for me to understand and implement. However, what struck me was that this particular blog didn&#39;t just stop there. It also referred me to another blog, which is where I discovered yet another solution that helped me solve a different problem altogether!</p>
<p>Upon reflection, I believe a significant portion of web knowledge comes from blogs written by individuals who have a passion for sharing their discoveries and solutions with others. This sense of community and willingness to help each other out is what makes the web such an incredible resource. It&#39;s not uncommon for someone to stumble upon a blog post that not only answers one question but also provides insights into related issues.</p>
<p>This is the web I love, where people come together to share their knowledge and help others. It&#39;s a testament to the power of collaboration and the willingness of individuals to contribute to a shared pool of information. So the next time you find yourself stuck with a technical issue or simply want to learn more about a particular topic, don&#39;t hesitate to explore the wealth of information available on blogs. You never know what you might discover along the way!</p>
