That's basically why I don't have a blog. I know I would end up with a few posts and then a multi-year gap in it.

But I like discussions on HN. There is just enough variety and interesting mix of topics. Also the style is more conversational, while a blog is more narrative (fire-side chat vs a presentation in front of an audience).

There should be an "HN-post-history-to-blog-format" library or service. Maybe something that picks the most interesting discussions in last X years.

Also, there's nothing really wrong with having a blog with no recent updates. I know there's this idea that a blog needs to be regularly updated. But a blog with just 2 valuable posts made 2 years ago, is a valuable thing!

If you just want to write some stuff and put it online, without the feeling of some ongoing obligation -- here are a few options:

I hope you will be encouraged to post some stuff.
