Another attempt at a personal blog

This is my n^th attempt at consistently keeping a personal blog up-to-date. Trying this out several years ago I failed, which taught me several lessons that will, hopefully, make things better this time:

• Keeping it simple. My old personal website was too complicated to update. Say hi to procrastination.
• Staying focused. What is my goal with a personal blog? I didn’t use to have a clear goal, which means I didn’t have an incentive to keep it up to date.
• Keeping records of my learning helps with motivation. This is tied to the previous point. I want to have some sort of a virtual “diary” where I note down what I learned. “Use a personal notepad like Joplin”, I hear you say. The issue is - my notes tend to become messy, and by expecting some visitors, it makes me think twice (* 10) before publishing. Does it have any value to the reader?, Is it easily comprehensible? are just a couple of questions that I hope will improve my writing skills. As an aspiring Data Scientist, being a good writer is arguably a crucial skill.

And… that’s about it! I have kept it short this time to make sure that I can get started with something, however small (thanks Atomic Habits).
