Introduction</h2>
Hello! I am Ryan Hendrickson and a Senior Platform Engineer in Washington State, USA. To be honest I'm not 100% sure what to put here, so, this will be pretty short.</p>

Why</h2>
Starting my own blog has been something that I've always wanted to do, but never got around to. Cut to 2026, and I decided to finally say "screw it" and start after migrating my website to a static site generator (article incoming).</p>
So what can you expect to read here? Whoof, who knows. Currently there's no exotic grand plans. It'll probably just be the ramblings of a mad man, and random things I learn/find interesting.</p>
Since I am currently using Zola</a>, I've added an Atom link in the footer! So if what I post interests you, you can easily subscribe and be notified of any future articles.</p>

Topics</h2>
I'm still trying to figure out what I'll even post articles about. As of right now though, I'm thinking just the various technology related things I work on professionally and as a hobby. That means this is a non-exhaustive list:</p>

Ansible</li>
Debian</li>
FreeBSD</li>
Go</li>
Rust</li>
PHP

Symfony</li>
WordPress</li> </ul> </li> </ul>
What's Next</h2>
I think the next article in my future is writing about the migration from Symfony</a> with Postgres</a> to Zola</a>. Also probably the migration from Nginx</a> to Caddy</a>.</p>
Closing</h2>
I'm new to this, especially putting myself out on the internet like this. However, if you want to connect feel free to send me a LinkedIn</a> request! Otherwise, I'll see you in the next article!</p>
