New Blog: Finally Static!

I've been wanting to convert my website from a WordPress-powered
application to a static one for a long time now. I tried a few different
systems, but nothing was flexible enough for my needs.
I almost sat down and wrote something myself, but luckly I found
Alex Metaireau's incredible
`Pelican <http://docs.notmyidea.org/alexis/pelican/>`_ project. So, now
my website is statically generated with a combination of all my
favorite tools: ReStructured Text, Jinja2, Python, Git, and Jenkins.
The move is far from perfect, but I'm glad I finally did it. All existing
comments are gone. There's no longer a mobile version. Many of the old
blog posts are malformed (and a big chunk should just be removed entirely).
But, these things will happen in time. It feels good to start fresh.
