Tryin’ ta git back ta duh bloggin…

As you can tell, there was a really long gap in my posting. During that interim, I had worked on several posts, but none of them were completed. There are a few reasons for that:
- I like to make my posts as clean and clear as possible, so I tend to spend a lot of time writing them.
- The posts I had been working on are quite long, so there is a lot that needs to be edited.
- I’ve been trying to delve into topics that are not yet “solved” (e.g. parallel programming). I’m still trying to formulate my own thoughts on those topics, so I’m never sure how to present them.
- I also write on topics that go against the grain of “accepted practice”. That requires compelling arguments to keep people from thinking I’ve gone bananas, e.g. a post about why innovation isn’t always a good thing… See, bet you’re thinking “bananas” already [you'll understand when I get to it].
Anyway, the end result is that I haven’t posted anything.
So, I’m going to get back to it by breaking up long articles into series of posts. That will probably be better, anyway. Who really wants to read a gigantic article all at once?
Now I just have to figure out a good way to link series together so they can be found as a unit (on the off chance you do like reading gigantic articles after all).
