The Future of This Blog
Obviously, I can’t seem to handle maintaining this blog right now. Before this new job I used to go over a lot of data and post the stuff that seemed interesting to me here, but right now this is pretty much impossible for me to go over the same amounts of daily news as I don’t have the time.
However, I still want to keep this blog. I think I’ll start posting shorter posts that will contain one item or so as I find them. Hopefully, this will be something I can maintain.
New Job

Unfortunately this means I have less time to update my blog, although I will make efforts to put stuff up here whenever I can.
