Yak shaving

I like learning about words for things. Like aglets or sonder.

###

I’ve been wanting a new personal website for a while now. Whenever I start working on it, it always goes a bit like this:

1. I have some ideas for my website.

2. I’m going to code it myself. Easy!

3. Okay, but what code editor should I use… all my colleagues keep talking about this new, cool code editor.

4. **Downloads new, cool code editor**

5. Oh wow, look at all these settings. Hmm, I should configure these.

6. Oh neat, they have themes. Oooo, I love the retro-looking one.

7. Wait! What am I going to use to host this website?

8. Ooh this looks cool, there’s even a free option, but it doesn’t allow me to use my own domain.

9. Oh gosh, I have a lot of domain names. I should cancel some of these.

10. Oh wow, loreniscool.com is finally available. I should really buy that before someone else does.

one hour later

29. I’ve turned on two-factor auth for my Gmail account. Security is so important.

30. *Yawn* That’s probably enough for tonight.
