<p>That’s the quiet argument for a blog with an actual domain attached to it, rather than a thread on someone else’s platform: it’s yours, it loads fast, and it will still be there in ten years if you want it to be.</p>

<p>This post is here mostly to show what a second entry looks like on the home page — how the excerpts get cut, how the dates line up in the margin. Once you’ve written a couple of real posts, delete both of these sample ones.</p>]]></content><author><name>Muhammed Yılmaz</name></author><category term="notes" /><summary type="html"><![CDATA[There’s a particular kind of pressure that disappears once a post is published somewhere real, even if only a handful of people ever read it.

It lives at <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">_posts/2026-08-01-welcome-to-the-blog.md</code> — every post file follows the same pattern: a date at the start of the filename, then a short slug.</p>

<p>To write a new post:</p>

<ol>
  <li>Copy this file.</li>
  <li>Rename it with today’s date and a new slug, like <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">2026-08-15-my-second-post.md</code>.</li>
  <li>Change the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">title</code> and <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">date</code> at the top, then write your post below the second <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">---</code>.</li>
  <li>Save (commit) it. GitHub Pages rebuilds the site automatically — no other steps needed.</li>
</ol>

<p>You can use regular markdown: <strong>bold</strong>, <em>italics</em>, <a href="https://example.com">links</a>, lists, and headings with <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">##</code>.</p>

<h2 id="a-second-section">A second section</h2>

<p>Headings like this one get a small rule above them, which is handy for breaking a longer post into parts.</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Blockquotes look like this — useful for pulling out a line worth sitting with.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Delete this post whenever you’re ready, or keep it as a template to copy from.</p>]]></content><author><name>Muhammed Yılmaz</name></author><category term="meta" /><summary type="html"><![CDATA[This is your first post.
