Notes on Mar 14, 2026

I added support for pinned posts on both https://tech.zlliang.me and https://days.zlliang.me in zlliang/zlliang@c283182, which also closed issue #77. There still are no real pinned posts on either site yet. I added the feature in advance for a post draft I am currently writing.

Over the past few days, I have been doing a series of minor blogging overhauls: reworking tags, adjusting parts of the UI, and cleaning up the agent skills and authoring references that support my blogging workflow. The more I work on both sites, the more I want to extract their highly similar logic into an Astro theme, something like my own small blog system in the spirit of Starlight.

One thing has become increasingly clear as I look back over my recent notes: I am doing noticeably better on the Chinese days site than on the English tech site. Part of that is simple fluency. But a more important part is that my technical notes still do not contain enough of my own thinking. Too often, they are just a pile of things I saw, rather than writing that helps me think or build a narrative of my own.

I want to keep that in mind and keep improving through writing.
