Wordpress is notorious in gett So, this time around, while I was still brainstorming for ideas and theme designs and what not, I decided to go back to Jekyll, or you may say, rather old school. Why not use plain static HTML files with some CSS styling and JS animations? Static sites are impossible to hack, as there are no codes needed to be run on the server. The only way a static site can be compromised if the code breakers have access to your FTP account. I have used Jekyll in the past during my college years. I was working as a Teaching Assistant in the Mathematics Dept, and I was supposed to post weekly course materials on the course website. The trouble was my Alma maters IT dept didn’t allow dynamic sites to run on the nodes, and I wasn’t going download the HTML files, edit them with Sublime text, and push them back onto the server every week. So I used Jekyll and GIT Version Control to do that for me. And it was so efficient that I would post materials daily instead of weekly. It was like love on first use. But Wordpress had lots of theme choices and for my personal site I decided to use Wordpress anyways disregarding the simpleness and speed static sites provided. After the takeover of my Wordpress powered blog happened, I turned to self written PHP sites and static sites completely. I have built a social network based on PHP for my peer group which is highly secure but when it comes down to speed it lags behind. So I built this site using Jekyll, a blog aware static site generator. I hope this site will perform as envisioned. -[^1]: This domain previously hosted a Wordpress blog. \ No newline at end of file +[^1]: This domain previously hosted a Wordpress blog. diff --git a/_posts/2014-05-15-how-many-things-are-there.md b/_posts/2014-05-15-how-many-things-are-there.md index a73227463..ddaaaab47 100644 --- a/_posts/2014-05-15-how-many-things-are-there.md +++ b/_posts/2014-05-15-how-many-things-are-there.md @@ -1,12 +1,19 @@ --- layout: post -published: true +published: false title: "How many things are there?" mathjax: false featured: true comments: false video: "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6eOcd06kdk" type: video +description: "" +headline: "" +modified: "" +categories: null +tags: "" +imagefeature: "" --- -Awesome post by VSauce \ No newline at end of file + +Awesome post by VSauce diff --git a/_posts/2014-05-15-jekyll-prose-io.md b/_posts/2014-05-15-jekyll-prose-io.md index d7f33c6e4..042c7931a 100644 --- a/_posts/2014-05-15-jekyll-prose-io.md +++ b/_posts/2014-05-15-jekyll-prose-io.md @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ --- layout: post -published: true +published: false title: Jekyll + Prose.io mathjax: false featured: true @@ -9,8 +9,12 @@ headline: Making blogging easier for masses categories: - webdevelopment tags: jekyll +description: "" +modified: "" +imagefeature: "" --- + Nothing beats Medium when it comes to blogging.

-My name is **Hossain Mohd. Faysal**, and this is my personal blog.
-
-I am an PhD candidate in *Electrical Engineering* at the [School of Engineering and Applied Science](http://www.seas.upenn.edu/) at **University of Pennsylvania**. I am licensed as a Professional Engineer (P.E) to practice in the states of Texas, Massachusetts and California. I double majored in EECS and Mathematics during my undergraduate life at [Massachusetts Institute of Technology](http://www.mit.edu/), and currently focusing on Electrical Engineering for my post-graduate studies.
-
-At some point in the not-terribly-distant future, I hope to found a self-sustaining collective of clever people, for fun, profit(?), and the promotion of human life in the universe. This might wind up in Qatar, Bangladesh, Scandinavia, the Massachusetts Bay Area, the SF Bay Area, Japan, Germany, or the dustbin of overly idealistic plans. (Yes, I have a special bin for overly idealistic plans. In my district they can't be recycled with residential mixed paper.) The most challenging aspect of this concept is to curtail unproductive competition with other people who will inevitably have the same idea. (Some sort of cooperative federation...) I'm presently looking for people who might be interested in being a part of such an organization.
-
-Anyways, for now I'm just working toward changing the face of Electrical Engineering forever. Not that I necessarily expect to succeed, but it's something to strive for, and it's a fun problem to work on.

-But over the years, I noticed that somehow, along the way, software designed to help us be creative, actually made us less creative. That's because we believe our best ideas emerge when we use pencils and paper.
-So I set out to build tools that work the way I do.

-Tools for the creative space — the 53 centimeters that magically link head, heart, and hand. Tools as simple as pencil and paper. Tools so essential, I really can't imagine work without them.
