Zero examples of portfolios on the site. Looks like an AI-generated site with default Bolt or v0 styles. No idea why anyone would use this and not just any of the million other options.

But you're expecting all that feedback surely. So what's the rebuttal? Why would anyone want to use this when they can just use v0 to spin up a site in seconds, or Jekyll or Ghost or list goes on?

In the article, you mentioned that you've been writing code for 36 years, so don't you feel IDEs like cursor make you feel less competent? Meaning I loved the process of scratching my head over a problem and then coming to a solution but now we have AI Agents solving the problems and optimizing code which takes the fun out of it.

Was going to ask a similar question. Where in the experience of Cursor do you feel like you're losing some of the agency of solving the harder problems, or is this something you take in mind while using it?

Just in passing, Quanta magazine has been excellent lately!

This is difficult in every docu system.

nah we use asciidoc for this. worked next to the guy who invented it back in the day. another team at our company used to to make topic-based authoring the CMS standard. been doing this fine for years now and even the writers seem happy (super rare for tech writers innit)

Eyyyyy. My personal site currently runs on Doks! Check it out: https://foreverliketh.is/ Also, @henk-verlinde, I'm not on the showcase :^(

but why would a "Documentation" cms care about showcasing personal sites?

What does this do that all the other Hugo docs templates don't do?

The "Showcase" section just shows a bunch of non-docs stuff. Why would I use this instead of readthedocs, gitbook, docasaurus, or any of the million others?

Also... generic markdown?

Whoa. This was way more impressive than I expected! And now I'm learning about Kirigami (and hoping my ancestors forgive me for not knowing this already).
