In brief, I began blogging here on 5 July 2013–i.e, nine years and 11 months ago to the day–and to commemorate this occasion, I will from time to time in the next four weeks be reposting some of my favorite blog posts from the last ten years. To get the ball rolling, pictured below is a screenshot of my very first blog post, which features a photograph I took of some bridges, trees, and buildings in one of my favorite cities in the world. Notice too how that post contains only seven words, including the title. Although most blogs consist mostly of words (mine included), one of my goals when I started “Prior Probability” was to convey information and ideas via pictures, charts, and other types of images.



Congrats! It will be seven years for me if I keep this up through November.
blogging regularly takes its toll but it helps me organize my time and prioritize my projects
For me it is a hobby with little productive utility. But I do seem to enjoy it.
