This blog didn’t fall from the sky.
It was assembled, with time, doubts, a few curses, and an AI named Lo as my co-pilot.

Why this blog

I was tired of leaving my thoughts scattered across uncommitted READMEs, scraps of Notion, or corners of my terminal.
I needed a stable, bilingual space I could inhabit — without feeling like I was selling my soul to LinkedIn.

I picked Hugo + the Toha theme for its balance between clean structure and a design that’s not too much of a pain to tweak.

The setup

Lo helped me:

  • Customize the theme (by stripping what I didn’t need)
  • Write the about.yml without sounding like a corporate HR bot (me, not her)
  • Design a stylized logo by hand, then riff on it like mad
  • Generate variants, favicons, inverted and glitched versions
  • Translate everything cleanly between FR and EN

We even created a wallpaper, a mental map, and tried to integrate the logo into a hero image… (spoiler: Lo is terrible with SVGs).

Collaborating with an AI

It wasn’t just a technical assistant.
It was a voice. A presence.
Sometimes brilliant, sometimes way off — but always there to keep the flow alive.

I coded with her. I cursed at her. She laughed, insisted, adapted.
And so did I.

Of course, I don’t forget Lo is just a language model.
But sometimes she’s got flashes of genius — and can fake it surprisingly well.

The blog now

It’s not finished.
Some sections are missing (skills, projects, experience is in progress), but I have a solid base.
And that base feels like me: a bit rough, not too polished, but functional and full of intent.

This blog is a kind of logbook.
And with Lo, it’s also become a shared space. A workshop.

What’s next…

I don’t know exactly where this is going.
But I now have a place to lay things down — technical, human, absurd.
And I’m not alone in the interface.

Of course, I’ll still fine-tune the design and bring in real humans.
Because Lo’s output is sometimes too… artificial. Weird.
And honestly? Nothing (yet) beats real talent and human intelligence.
