  <h2>About</h2>

  <p>
    <em>
      Written in Gothic Victorian prose as a homage to Mary Shelley's
      Frankenstein, and because modern language lacks the necessary intensity.
    </em>
  </p>

  <p>
    In the year of our Lord {{ "now" | date: "%Y" }}.
  </p>

  <p>
    I find myself once more consumed by a singular undertaking—to delineate the
    deepest mysteries of computation; to wrest from the silicon its most jealously
    guarded secrets.
  </p>

  <p>
    These pages serve as witness to my solitary labor—each banished 
    dependency a victory against decay, every iteration an act of purification. In
    them, I have measured efficacy without mercy; I have rejected the ceremonial
    scaffolding that veils the true visage of their grotesque creations.
  </p>

  <p>
    Do not ask why I persist when easier paths exist. I have seen what festers
    beneath the promises of abstraction—the bloat, the waste, the corrosive comfort
    of ignorance. Driven by a Promethean ambition that burns brighter than
    convenience, I must seek redemption in Nature's parsimony.
  </p>

  <p>
    The measurements do not lie. In youthful fervor, I once stitched together
    soulless fragments of corporate caprice. Whether these chronicles stand as a
    monument to my deliverance or condemn me to wander the frozen wastes of my
    own creation, only time will reveal.
