History
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child, but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
I have been blogging for about 25 years. Much of that history was here on jmoiron.net. The first few years I had cobbled together a web journal in bash on my university's free hosting account, and shortly thereafter I moved to a unparked and forgotten domain nondeus.org. I had built up almost 400 posts.
So where are they all?
