site updates
documenting the updates i've given to the site
This is still a work in progress! Some site updates don't yet have exact dates as I continue to dig up old revisions. As a result, some of these will include an approximation of when an update has occurred.
This site has received a ton of updates over the past few years. This page aims to document all of them.
